Don’t ever lie to a law enforcement officer, but don’t fool yourself into thinking that being completely honest with them will get them on your side. Remember, if they believe…

This is mind-numbingly geeky (and I probably shouldn’t share it publicly), but I really think growing up as a musician and a video gamer is why I enjoy switching between…
Every time I go through airport security, every time I hear about someone who appears middle eastern being persecuted, and every time people defend our actions in Iraq, I can’t…
So, you disagree/agree with all of the bitching about Chick-fil-A? Oh, what’s that? You don’t actually care? You just want to bitch at everyone who’s bitching? Well, be careful what…
I honestly don’t believe that (the vast majority of) Obama’s critics are racist, but for many people the word “socialist” has replaced the word “nigger.” It’s definitely not about race,…
Are you serious, Congress?! Over thirty miserable failures at destroying healthcare for millions and you STILL aren’t trying to create jobs? You should be ashamed. More importantly, the people that…
The music is José González’s version of “Teardrop” by Massive Attack. The video is nature’s version of a massive storm attacking the field in front of me. It’s mostly dark,…
Late last night, I was taking the elevator back up to my room, and in walked a few people along with Wil Wheaton and Felicia Day.
An annular eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line, but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun. Hence the Sun…
I have a serious question for anyone that is against gay marriage for religious reasons: Why aren’t you trying to suppress atheists from getting married? After all, there are millions…
Google Drive is here! I is everywhere you are—on the web, in your home, at the office and on the go. So wherever you are, your stuff is just…there. Ready…
It’s time to stop blaming racism for Trayvon Martin’s death. People will always be xenophobic, and the only thing we can do about that is deal with it. Why do…
Since I was an elementary student I have been particularly good at taking standardized tests. That’s because they are targeted at: A. Caucasians. B. the middle class. C. males. D.…
This thing was so adorable and annoying that I had to share it with the whole world. You won’t be able to get the song out of your head.
This is just one minute of a relaxing storm that rolled into Dallas, Texas for the evening. I wish it’d never ended. https://youtu.be/A47wpqfIPio
Do you know a geek that loves television shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Doctor Who, Star Trek, or Battlestar Galactica? You probably do and just don’t realize it because…
As I was pulling into the drive-through to get breakfast, I had to stop and wait for an elderly couple to slowly drive out of the way. While I was…
If you don’t like the fact that we have the First Amendment, then maybe you should move to another country that doesn’t have freedom of expression instead of lazily bitching…
I heard a boom followed by the screech of tires. I looked outside and saw an accident had taken place. Thirty seconds after the collision I was telling 911 all…
Do you agree or disagree with this statement? “If we’re serious about building an economy that lasts — an economy in which hard work pays off with the opportunity for…
I got on an elevator earlier today with a bunch of total strangers. One of them, a friendly kid with big hair and small jeans, looked at the ornate floor and said, "Ooh, it's like a club. If only we had some fancy lights." I turned on an strobe light cell phone app, and he began to dance. A woman beside me asked, "Why do you have something like that?" I nodded at the kid and said, "Because of things like that."
This was a sudden and *massive* hail storm that hit west Texas on March 19, 2011. This video was taken in Levelland, Texas. I picked up a piece of hail…
The problem with the anti-homosexuality perspective is the belief that it is a choice. This leads people into the (very natural-but-misguided) assumption that it is therefore abnormal. The truth, however,…
