    The Kate Gosselin Media Obsession

    I’m so confused. Is producing a litter of children a good thing then…, or not?

    Check Stand Charity Drives

    I love to be hit up for money every time I interact with a checker. I mean seriously, what goes together better than charitable donations and grocery shopping? Apparently nothing.

    Feet Shuffling

    I’m actually glad you don’t pick up your feet when you walk. At least we now know what a human-sloth hybrid looks like.

    Pen Clicking

    I love the soothing sounds that eminate from your pen when you break into your little audio-water-torture routine. Click, Click, Clicky. Just Click it in, Just Click it in.

    Chatty Dentists

    My favorite portion of the dental experience is when Dude starts interrogating me while he’s knuckles deep in my mouth. It does however make me a little nervous when he assumes my gurgled responses are part of an avoidance tactic — I’ve heard they can do some pretty rough stuff with rinse water.

    I can’t think of any situation that actually demands a buck naked foot to show up unannounced in an otherwise fine piece of photography. Unless of course, that foot is enjoying an ice cold beer.

    Playing Commercials at the Start of a Movie

    Considering the fact that I mortgaged my house and signed away my first born child to get into this little production, you’d think I might be spared the paid advertisements while I’m trying to enjoy my $75 drink, popcorn and Ju-Ju Bee combo meal.

    Caring Too Much About What Other Countries Think

    I like to spend my free time worrying about what other countries think of the U.S. Mostly I just imagine the day when Euros are as excited to see Americans as they were in say……1944.

    Silent Package Deliveries

    As much as I like my package to soak up the elements while it waits unannounced on my front porch — it might actually be time for UPS and FedEx to tell their employees about that magic little button erected on most houses. It’s called a doorbell.
