Children. What a breath of fresh air. A perfect carbon copy of the parents. Cute, cuddly, smiley. Playful, inquisitive, pristine. Or the worst STD known to man. When parents bring their children to restaurants, it’s like imposing the flu onto someone else. It was your problem first, why do you make me deal with it? […]
Couldn’t do a server post this week, and I realized I only had one barista one. People seemed to like it, so here’s another one. —————– Everyone knows that one of the most aggravating customer service jobs is in the coffee industry. So many people crawl out of bed, cranky to the point of an […]
Throw your words, throw your fists But you’ll never conquer this. Run your mouth, play your games But I’ll put you all to shame. Wear the face that you mean, Not the fake one that we see. You’re too weak to admit That I can see through all of it, no. Children laugh, children play […]
This is the second collaboration piece done with Jeff over at Content Unrelated. Woop woop! Be sure you go and read his blog, he’s so funny — and last week some of the best comments of the post came from the part he wrote. Just saying. Also, if you’re any kind of industry worker and […]
Goodness gracious. This query letter-ing business is a pain. Bust out a 140,000 word novel and then get stuck on the query letter -_-. For those of you writers who read this (whom? I never get that right), I need help on my query letter! I keep seeing all sorts of different approaches, and I […]
My first collaboration piece! I’m pretty excited about this. This is written with Jeff from Content Unrelated, so be sure you check out some of his funny stuff! It’s a bit different from the ones I’ve posted so far — more of a storyline and less of the conversation. The post-customer interaction where the majority […]
I’ve blogged about this before a few times, but when I first started blogging back in August, I had a story called “The Adventures of Jensen Carpenter.” It was a weekly journal chronicling the Apocalypse. I hand-wrote everything, and shot through it pretty quick as I had to have it done every week. I’m not […]
I was going to wait for the album to do a full review. But then the title track of this CD dropped and I feel like the entire world needs to hear its glory. Also, whenever I search for Skillet information, and put the time slot into the last 24 hours, I think it’s pretty […]
I had originally intended on doing one for Mother’s Day, but a) my Mother’s Day wasn’t that bad and b) it would have just turned into a rant instead of a conversation the way these have been going. People have seemed to enjoy them so far, so I decided to do one on parties in general. […]
You know it’s a good movie when… As soon as the credits start rolling, you immediately go back to the beginning to watch it. The only movies I’ve wished to do this for but haven’t were all the Lord of the Rings/Hobbit and Harry Potter movies because…well they’re 700 hours long. The movies I’ve done this for: I […]
