My wife likes to tell people that I had my mid-life crisis back in 2016. I was getting really sick of the job I had been working at for 15 years and I didn't want to work there anymore. In addition, I didn't really know what I wanted to do for a career either. I … Continue reading Content Creator Bitterness

Driving you up the paywall BFG’s
As a sign of appreciation for feeding her for 18 years, and allowing her to stay rent-free in our house, my daughter abandoned us to go to college. Pretty great gesture if you ask me. Then she decided that she didn't want to go to college right across the freeway from us so she could … Continue reading Driving you up the paywall BFG’s
Picking Up the Pieces
For some stupid reason, every morning before I go to work, I watch the news. It's the local news, so all they talk about is who got murdered, what accidents happened and the stupid weather. But today, they were so excited because they discovered and overnight four-alarm apartment fire to feature as breaking news. They … Continue reading Picking Up the Pieces
Bitter Reviews of BBB
I used to watch movies in person all the time, because I love paying for disappointment in person. Alright that isn't the real reason. The real reason is that I used to be a hopelessly single guy that had no social life or prospects, so I would go to them to drown out the loneliness. … Continue reading Bitter Reviews of BBB
Supercut Bitterness
I've done everything for my oldest and only daughter. I attended her daddy daughter dances for years (playing the dad part of the duo), bought her closets full of clothes that she meticulously kept the tags on for years, and allowed her to live rent-free for years. I even got her a job in the … Continue reading Supercut Bitterness
Living Rent-Free BFG’s
My wife and I have been looking for ways to become independently wealthy for some time now. She would really like to go shopping without looking at price tags. She would also love to have a maid, a personal chef and personal trainer. She would also like a car with heated seats, and a house … Continue reading Living Rent-Free BFG’s
Sword of Bitter
When I went to Scotland, we visited Victoria Street, which inspired J.K. Rowling's Diagon Alley in Harry Potter. They had a lot of shops dedicated to Harry Potter and sold lots of HP merchandise. It cracked me up that the first store we visited that was dedicated to Harry Potter merch, had less of an … Continue reading Sword of Bitter
Blog Paralysis BFG’s
I know I keep talking about my trip to Scotland, but it's mostly because I need to brag that I got to go there, and you didn't. Mostly though, it was a once-in-a-lifetime trip that I will never be able to afford to go to again. Being there was just so unique because my great-great-great … Continue reading Blog Paralysis BFG’s
Risk Averse Bitterness
The older I get the less time I have for shenanigans. When I was younger, I would put up with stupid stuff and stupid people, but that required a lot of energy. Now that I don't have any energy, I have no time for shenanigans. For instance, I used to play video games that were … Continue reading Risk Averse Bitterness
Middle Aged Suckery BFG’s
Do you remember that stupid game your teachers made you play when you were a kid, where the teacher tells one kid a secret and then you had to tell the next person the thing they said? At the end, the last person would try to say the thing that the first person said, and … Continue reading Middle Aged Suckery BFG’s
Reboot Bitterness
You have no idea how many times I've had to write this post. Well, okay I will tell you. Once. It was once, okay? But that doesn't mean I haven't had to write a bunch of other posts a lot of times. In fact, my best and most brilliant post ever had to be written … Continue reading Reboot Bitterness
Nobody is looking at you BFG’s
I haven't progressed much since my teen years. Just like I did in my teens, I still play video games, I still wear jeans and shorts (and jean shorts(jorts)), and still also have a driver's license just like I did as a teen. As the old expression goes, "The more things change, the more things … Continue reading Nobody is looking at you BFG’s
I will soon own Scotland…and then the World
Taking over the world is hard work. Terrorists are constantly trying to do it in movies, governments are always trying to topple other governments and countries one at a time, and Pinky and the Brain have been trying to do it since 1995. Sorry lab rat, beat you to it. Unfortunately for Pinky and the … Continue reading I will soon own Scotland…and then the World
Misery loves Privacy BFG’s
Last week, I said I was taking care of important business, so I just had to give my blog the average amount of attention. That was because I was dropping my daughter off to college. It was important for me to do so, because she is now attending my alma mater. Which according to Wikipedia … Continue reading Misery loves Privacy BFG’s

Emotional Support Video Game
I don't know about you, but I'm fascinated by the story of Steve Jobs. Why? Because he more at things than I have ever even attempted. Failure is the bedrock of bitterness. And if you think I'm bitter, you should see how bitter Steve Jobs was. Not as bitter, but he was one of the … Continue reading Emotional Support Video Game
Dueling Identities Bitter Friday Giftures
Did you know that there are literally millions of podcasts on the internet right now? I didn't know that either, because I'm just guessing. What do you think, I talk about facts on here? Almost everything I write is either made up or mostly made up. But one thing I do know is that there … Continue reading Dueling Identities Bitter Friday Giftures
Kid Icarus Complex Bitter Friday Giftures
I never paid attention much in school when it came to Greek Gods and myths and legends. Turns out I probably should have paid less attention to math and science and more attention the Legends. Because the kind of math that I use nowadays can either be solved by calculators, Excel or YouTube. But the … Continue reading Kid Icarus Complex Bitter Friday Giftures
Taking over the media
When I was in high school, I was a big fan of not having friends. It was mostly my toxic personality, my metal mouthed Resting Bitter Face, and my massive introversion complex that allowed to skate by without friends for the most part. Unfortunately, one guy tricked me into being his friend by bribing me … Continue reading Taking over the media
