When we moved here from Seattle, we had a lot of junk. We knew we would only have a limited amount of space, so we had to get some place to put it. We were calling around different places to get rates, when a solution came out of nowhere. My sister's sister in law … Continue reading Storage Unit Bitter Friday Giftures
Much of my life is about routine. I don't take adventures to tall mountains even though they are mere minutes from where I live. I also don't go outside much, even though just a little glass and roof seperate me from that. Going outside doesn't excite me. The Great Indoors are what I crave. Why … Continue reading Work Flexibility
When I was younger a friend and I were walking in a neighborhood that overlooked an empty field. He was from Japan and as you know, Japan is very dense when it comes to the amount of people that live there. As we overlooked the field, he replied wistfully that he wanted to be a … Continue reading Bitter Nomadic Wanderers
Yesterday as I was driving home, my powerful little Dodge Caliber with its V-4 engine and it top 0-59 speed of 10 minutes was being bullied. There were high winds in the area, gusts up to 60 miles an hour. I don't know if you are familiar with how fast 60 miles an hour is, … Continue reading Bitter Magnetic Forces
When I was a kid, I played basketball, mowed the lawn, snowblowed the driveway, and did several paper routes. I also worked for a bed delivery company that made me work 40 hours a week delivering beds, all at the same time. I never got tired. You could see my ribs then. That was a … Continue reading My Metabolism is Broken
Pizza. The food. Cheese, pepperoni, tomato sauce, just the right amount of grease. A circle inside a square box, cut into triangles. And in most cases delivered to your door, hot and ready. Goes perfectly with soda. Foldable, sliceable, fits nicely in your hand. Fits nicely on a plate, and even when you are … Continue reading Hot N Ready Bitter Friday Giftures
I watch a little Youtube because my kids watch it like it all the time and I kind of want to know what the heck they watch all the time. It's like the new TV for millennials. Anyways, Casey Neistat is one of the ones I watch regularly and he does a lot of … Continue reading Adventure Time Bitterness
Today is the day that will go down in infamy. Oh wait, that is another speech. Besides, each day of my life goes down in infamy, but today is the day that I go from 44 to 45. So, unluckily for all of you, you get my annual list of things that make me … Continue reading 45 Things that make me bitter
Nope we aren't talking about a big tsunami or an earthquake, though when I get up off the couch it might feel like it. No, the 45 years is coming on Monday. April is my favorite time of the year, because, of course, it isn't March. March is the worst. March is like the Monday … Continue reading The Big One is Coming Friday Bitter Giftures
Most of the time, I like to spread my bitterness out a little and drink it in like a fine wine. I sniff it, move my hand up towards my face and let it linger in the air a little. Well, I should have seen it all coming because I am a medium of bitterness, … Continue reading 24 Hour Bitness
I like to go on Twitter to get all my news, because it normally comes with a bit of sass, sarcasm and of course bitterness. We really only got news from Facebook and Twitter. After our forced news outage we went through of over a year and a half, we finally have cable back so … Continue reading National Don’t Hug A Person Bitterness
I just wanted to hop on here today and say a few things. First, April Fool's is the best holiday, not only because of the pranks and jokes and stuff, that make other people look like idiots, but also I get fooled a lot, and it makes me feel like an idiot. Most of the … Continue reading April Foolish Bitterness
Alright bitter people. It's time for me to get a little uncomfortable and do something that I am completely awkward at. Even though I worked in customer service and telemarketing for years. I need to beg a little. But before I do so, let's get the inside scoop about why I will be begging first. … Continue reading Ben’s Bitter Book Begging
Over the years, my blog has gone through many different changes. Okay, only a few. I've added a new banner a few times. And it seems like I've gone through multiple followers that have faded and had to find new ones. But for the most part, this blog is still about the core value … Continue reading Following Trends Friday Giftures
You probably think that my life is all about drama. Every week I'm complaining about something so minuscule that it bothers me enough to write a whole post about it. But in reality, I don't have much drama. My life is about the little things that make me bitter. On the other hand, a lot … Continue reading The Drama Highway
You all thought I was lazy. And you are absolutely right. If it was possible for someone invent something that would allow me to slide off the couch, roll me to the kitchen where a sandwich would be made for me, I would probably never leave the couch. Then the other day, I watched something … Continue reading Pick Up Lines Ben
I am so mad at myself. Yesterday as I was leaving the building to go home, I decided to help someone by holding the door open for them. Big mistake. They took their time getting to the door, and then I had to wait for them to open it for me. Then because it … Continue reading Falling off the Edge Bitter Friday Giftures
Can I please bore you with more things about homes? Because I have certainly gotten bored about homes. I work for a company that does mortgages for people and I write about it them all day. If I'm not blogging about it, I'm Facebooking about it. And of course, we just bought a house recently, … Continue reading Snoring Open House Bitterness
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SxuYdzs4SS8 "It was the bitterest of times, it was also the bitterest of times." "A George divided against itself cannot stand." "How long halt ye between two opinions?" These are famous quotes from people that are trying to describe my situation right now. As I pointed out last week, when my blog was closed, I … Continue reading Bitter Tale of Two Cities
There have been reports of this movie The Greatest Show on Earth, actually being the greatest show on earth. I have some words to say about that. Namely, that it isn't true. How in the world can it be the greatest show on earth when there is no falling, no tripping, no falling backward, … Continue reading The Greatest Gif Show alive
