A family of (idiot) adventurers!

by Jordan RothOctober 15, 2009

On behalf of the world, I’d like to thank the Heenes of Fort Collins, Colorado for wasting local and national resources, creating unnecessary concern all over the country and the globe, and for being all-around idiots.
What is going on?  Who are these people? Who are these parents?  Is anyone else fixated on the point, amongst [...]

On the “stupid shit” beat

by Jordan RothJuly 21, 2009

Cable news frustrates me.
I’m sure Jeannie Moos over at CNN is very nice and it seems—after a little research—like she has a distinguished broadcast journalism career. But her reports on CNN are frustratingly stupid.  Moos covers CNN’s zany, quirky, off-kilter and unnecessary stories.
Like most things that bother me, this probably shouldn’t.  Maybe it’s the tone [...]

Father, I’m unemployed!

by ThomasJuly 11, 2009

I just got off the phone with my dad, after telling him I got laid off last week.  While it felt momentarily cathartic to tell him, considering I’d been hiding it for almost two weeks while I tried to get another job (I haven’t), I kicked myself after hanging up.
Nearly every phone conversation I have [...]

My new Twitter follower!

by Jordan RothJuly 8, 2009

I just wanted you all to know that I have a new follower on Twitter and I’m really excited about it.  Now, I don’t know too much about Patrice (or @Mcleod594) but she seems really outgoing and sweet.  Oh, she also likes to be fucked hard.
 Mcleod594: I want to get fucked HARD. Bring toys. Whatever. [...]

Lunchables: A Part of the Problem

by Jordan RothJune 26, 2009

Today I saw an adult eating a Lunchable.
Now, I’m pretty immature. (As I write this, a few toys from my favorite cereal are within view.)  But, really?  I think if you’re, say, in your thirties, and you whip out a Lunchable, and you’re not joking, you have to ask yourself some serious questions, including, among [...]

Letterman apology

by Jordan RothJune 16, 2009

For those who don’t know, David Letterman made some jokes about Sarah Palin and Bristol on the Late Show.  They weren’t the best jokes.  They were crude and, maybe, they were misses.  That’s it.
There are plenty of jokes made in late night that are crude and there are plenty that are misses.  There are also [...]

Roland Emmerich

by Jordan RothApril 5, 2009

In an earlier post about the movie 2012 I—briefly—laid into director Roland Emmerich.  Now, I just got home, turned on the TV and started watching The Day After Tomorrow on TV.  I have no idea why.  I’ve actually seen it before.  Anyway, my earlier jab at Emmerich (I said that, in addition to Independence Day, [...]

Bloggin’

by Jordan RothMarch 10, 2009

So, it occurs to me that there are things I need to include in posts if I’m going to start blogging and become a part of the blogosphere.  Here’s just a few items for now:
First, some hot celebrity news:  Did you hear that that Tiffany Amber Thiessen is in the new Batman movie?! She’s playing the Riddler.
Next: Hey, [...]

Kraft Bagel-fuls: aw-ful

Thumbnail image for Kraft Bagel-fuls: aw-ful

I can’t believe this. Have you seen these ads?  Did you see this coming?  I didn’t.
Here’s the scoop, kids:  Kraft recently unveiled their new Bagel-fuls, rolls of frozen “bagels” wrapped around Philadelphia cream cheese, ready to go in the microwave.  Kraft says it’s “a golden bagel and Philadelphia cream cheese rolled into one.” They also say, “Bagel-fuls are a simple breakfast that [...]
