No drama, eh?

It cracks me up how so many people claim that they don't have any drama in their lives and that if you have any drama, to head elsewhere. I see this on Facebook profiles and profiles just about everywhere, from social networking sites to dating sites and beyond.

Most everyone doesn't care for drama. Some I think do, but the majority do not. At the same time, I find it laughable when people honestly believe that there is no drama present in their lives and want others to believe this as well, even going so far as to say if these others contain any drama in their lives, to have nothing to do with them.

Sure, we can deny drama all we want, but it's there. If a person is alive, he or she will experience drama. Some experience more drama than others, this is very true. But we all still experience drama at some level or another. Go to school? There will be drama. Work? There will be drama. Have family? Friends? A boyfriend or girlfriend? A husband or wife? Kids? Guess what? there's going to be drama. Planning to take a relaxing vacation? Sorry, there's going to be drama there as well. If any emotion(s) is (are) present within an individual, he or she is going to experience drama.

Personally, I've come to learn that those whom are so adamant and repetitive about their claims of living a drama-free life probably have more drama present in their dramaless life than the majority. Denial is a powerful thing, as is projection.

Do I like drama? No, of course not, but I'm also not going to sit around and say that there's none present in my life, past, present or inevitably in the future. I'll be perfectly fine with anyone who declares they hate drama. That's probably true. No biggy. But for anyone who adamantly declares there's no drama present in their life, I'm going to come back with the question, "Do you breathe?" After I receive an odd look, I'll then say, "Alright then. I'm glad we cleared that up. You have drama in your life."

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

Face guarding is legal in college football and the NFL

I just wanted to remind fans and announcers especially, that face guarding is legal in both college football and the NFL. It all comes down to contact. So long as a defender doesn't make contact with an intended receiver, he doesn't have to turn around to play the ball. I can't tell you how many times every week I hear announcers talk about face guarding being a penalty. It's not. I even heard one announcer yesterday state, "If the defender doesn't turn around and play the ball, the ref will call pass interference every time." That's simply not true. Courtesy of referee Bill LeMonnier, he says this with regard to the rule at the college level (answered on 8/12/13): "NCAA rules on pass interference require the face guarding to have contact to be a foul. No contact, no foul by NCAA rules." In the NFL rule book, this is written:  "Actions that constitute defensive pass interference include but are not limited to: (a) Contact by a ...

A closer look at the Scramble With Friends power-ups

I am unashamed to admit that I'm a nerd. My idea of a good time is playing a word game like Boggle or Scrabble. Thankfully, I (and many others) can play such games via Facebook and/or my (our) cell phone(s). While it seems that cheating has become more commonplace in these games (Words With Friends in particular) than San Diego has had nice weather, I've yet to give in to that craze. One element present with the game Scramble With Friends (Boggle) not present in Words With Friends (Scrabble) are legal boosts called "power-ups," which cost a number of tokens from the 15 available. I've now tried all five power-ups, including the latest one which costs money. So, in case anyone's curious about playing the game or giving these power-ups a gander, here's a rundown of them all: Freeze - I think this is probably my favorite of all the power-ups. With the freeze, time stands still for a matter of seconds, which allows you more time to find words and improve...
