I've never been big into the spooky part of Halloween. I will occasionally visit a haunted house or watch a scary movie, but they don't really define the season for me. It isn't those corn mazes or pumpkins that seem to pop up overnight in every field, henhouse, doghouse, and backyard. It isn't the … Continue reading Spooky Story Bitter Friday Giftures
When you are younger all you want is for people to pay attention to you. Feed me, cuddle me, give me toys, take me to the park. When you get older and can feed yourself, get all the cuddling you can handle from your kids, get all the toys you really want, and can't … Continue reading Free Time Bitter Friday Giftures
My kids are always alerting me of the latest memes, as if I wasn't 100% in on all of them. Honestly, I think my kids speak meme, because 90% of what comes out of their mouths refer to some meme or another. I try to be in the know so I can talk to them, … Continue reading Got any games on your Phone Bitterness
When we wake up to get ready for school/work, we turn on the news. I despise most news because it is all just a bunch of politics and bad news about murder and court appearances and such. But every once in a while, a news story comes along where you can just make fun … Continue reading Car Investigative Report Bitter Friday Giftures
I assume all of you have seen Toy Story before, so I hope I'm not spoiling it all for you. In it, they answer the question, "What do my toys do when no one is around?" Then there are those Secret Lives of Pets movies that explore a similar question. "What do my pets do … Continue reading Hardest Working Appliance
I was watching Harry Potter last night and it reminded me of something spooky. No, not witches and wizards or Horcruxes or Voldemort. It reminded me of something I did just yesterday. I didn't like my haircut, so I fixed it myself. My hair is already bad enough, but then letting myself hack it … Continue reading Harry Bitter Friday Giftures
I've never understood the Phone wars (Samsung v. Iphone) or the mobile network wars (T-Mobile v. ATT v. Verizon v. Sprint). At this point all of them are pretty much the same and do about the same thing. I think they all pretty much suck at phone calls (which is fine because I don't call … Continue reading John Wick Bitterness
There is a social media app out there that I think many of you are missing out on. On the surface you might think that Venmo is just another way to pay people without actually paying them, you would be wrong. In fact, if you are on Instagram mostly just to look at other … Continue reading Venmo Bitter Friday Giftures
Back in the day when computers first came out, one of the first video games that came out was a game called Pong. I was a little too young, so I didn't really understand "computer games", but apparently it was a BIG thing. It was very similar to tennis and if you know anything about … Continue reading Tennis Match Bitterness
Remember all the way back to Monday? Remember how most of us had Labor Day off? It seems like so long ago but we decided not to labor ironically. The reason why it seems so long ago, is because of this weird phenomenon where those shorter weeks we get from holidays seem longer because … Continue reading Short Week Bitter Friday Giftures
Based on recent trends, or maybe just what I've noticed, I think the human body seems to naturally shut down around 3 pm. I assume most people, like me have finished their really important work by 10 am, had lunch by 12 or 1 pm and are just biding their time until 5 pm. … Continue reading 3 PM Afternoon Crash Bitter Friday Giftures
Most of the spring and summer when I was unemployed, I dreamed up different ways to pay the bills. Most of them involved the lottery, Publisher's Clearinghouse Sweepstakes or starting a very successful YouTube channel. They were all long shots, but at the time, so was getting an interview that would actually seem like a … Continue reading Bitter Dream House
Humans aren't very good at learning lessons. I should know, I'm one of them. You would think that after living in my house for over a year now, I would have figured out that the glasses are in one cabinet, and plates are in another, but I continually reach for the wrong one almost … Continue reading Burning Man Bitter Friday Giftures
As many know about me, I'm a huge Office fan. I've watched the entire series at least 6 times and watch marathons on TV whenever I see them. One the big parts of the Office is the party planning committee, vital to the many parties that take place at Dunder Mifflin. Whether it is … Continue reading Party Planning Committee Bitter Friday Giftures
When I was growing up my world wide web consisted of the spiders in the backyard. Okay maybe it was a few other places too, but essentially my world was as far as I could see, so my yard, the grocery store and maybe Grandma's house once a year. It wasn't until we packed up … Continue reading Too Many Tabs Open Bitterness
I've mastered many things over the years. I'm really good at Fridays. I have my routine of doing Bitter Friday Giftures every week, regardless of how busy I might be. I also take the burden of having dinner planned every single Friday. It might seem like everyone else's plan of having pizza, but that isn't … Continue reading Sleep Deprivation Bitterness
Last night, I was sitting on the couch, relaxing from the bitter day of work I almost always have, and my son comes tromping in from football practice. As always, he left a trail of things leading up to himself, so even an incompetent detective like Inspector Clouseau could find him. He drops his … Continue reading Football Season Bitter Friday Giftures
Remember a while ago when there was an ad campaign about when you get older, life gets better? I don't really remember it on TV. In fact, the reason I do remember it, is because Oscar on the Office tried to do a little video himself and it hilariously got hijacked by everyone else … Continue reading It Doesn’t Get Better
I was listening to someone talk about things the other day. When you do that, sometimes you actually learn things, which for me is a really bad idea. You know how they say a little knowledge about something is a bad thing? That applies to me. All of a sudden, I start acting like I'm … Continue reading Communication is the Key to Bitterness
People have been trying to teach me a lot of stuff lately. Obviously when you start a new job, they have to teach you the ways of the Jedi, and or, the ways the company work and what you are supposed to do every day. The other day, my wife was telling me that … Continue reading Crystal Cloudy Bitter Friday Giftures
