Hey there, I'm Bitter Ben's Brain. I snuck on the blog here because well, I get bored a lot. As you might know, Bitter Ben doesn't use me a whole lot, and I realized that he hasn't done any year end posts. I know he never will, so I took it upon myself to do it for him … Continue reading The Bitter End…of the Year

In case you missed it…because you were playing with your shiny new toys
Lot's of people got shiny and new stuff in the last few days. Shininess and brightness can be distracting as babies and cats know. Even I get distracted by laser pointers. I've been known to chase them from time to time (meaning always). By chase I mean with my eyes. And by lasers I mean … Continue reading In case you missed it…because you were playing with your shiny new toys
Friday Pictures – The Clever Edition
There is a long standing tradition between me and my family, acquaintances and co-workers, that I crack really lame jokes, puns, and mixed metaphors and they groan, snort or completely ignore me. Since my plan is to live my life in complete and utter isolation, the plan is going much better than I had hoped. Even bitter, there are … Continue reading Friday Pictures – The Clever Edition
Bitter Anticipation
It is days like this, the day after a vacation, holiday or break when I don't feel like working, moving or even breathing, or days like this that feel like a combination of the listlessness of Monday, the overwhelmingness of Tuesday, and the desperation of Thursday, that I realize why I am such a bitter time off anticipator. Call … Continue reading Bitter Anticipation

In case you missed it…because you were entranced by a Yule Log
I hope all you completely deserving people that don't have to work Monday and Tuesday or Thursday and Friday, don't have anything bad happen to you, like a Yule log smog incident, or a sleigh slaying, a snowball fall, or a frozen hose.

The Bitter Crunchy vs plain debate
I thought at some point I would stop learning things because my body is pretty lazy. I figured my mind would start retiring from learning too. But no, my mind had to go and be all ambitious and pull up a fact that I hadn't really learned in 40 years of existing on earth. Luckily it wasn't life changing or … Continue reading The Bitter Crunchy vs plain debate

You drove three hours to get to their house, … Continue reading If you missed it…you were probably in a tryptophan coma
