When I was young, I loved the Transformers. Coming home to watch the Transformers was my reward for making it through a hard 6-hour day of school. One of my favorite characters was the advanced scout, Mirage, because he could turn invisible and would warn the Autobots of an early attack by Decepticons. I must … Continue reading Scouts Make Me Shout Bitterness

Underground Lair Bitter Friday Giftures
We've all lost a lot in the pandemic. Lost lives, lost jobs, lost businesses, lost freedoms and lost breathing (you know from those dang masks). All I know is that I'm never wearing one of those things again. I've personally lost a lot of things since the pandemic started too. I'm still missing one of … Continue reading Underground Lair Bitter Friday Giftures
Mascot Bitter Friday Giftures
Why do you think March Madness the ultimate time of year for so many people? Well, some say it is for college basketball. You know, the crazy upsets, the buzzer beaters and the nail biting games. Or it could be the one-in-a-million shot that you could accidentally fill out a Final Four bracket in your … Continue reading Mascot Bitter Friday Giftures
DeepFake Bitter Friday Giftures
The reason I know that I was meant to live in this period of history, is because this is the best time period to be lazy. Imagine me trying to get away with being lazy in Jurassic Park era. As soon as I decided that I wanted to hang out in the cave, I would … Continue reading DeepFake Bitter Friday Giftures

Pillow Bitter Friday Giftures
I cannot sleep! Yesterday during my typical 3 pm lull, I was struggling to doze off. As a late 40's guy, I've never struggled to get at least 15 winks here and there at the computer, while pretending to do work, but lately it's been a struggle bus. It would be easy to blame things … Continue reading Pillow Bitter Friday Giftures
Headphone Bitter Friday Giftures
I've always been a big advocate of people leaving me alone. One of my best defenses against people talking to me was this marvelous invention called headphones. When people see them on me, they should assume that I am listening to something of utmost importance, even if I'm only listening to a goofy podcast, or … Continue reading Headphone Bitter Friday Giftures
Cartoonish Behavior Bitter Friday Giftures
Last week I talked about when I was a kid and how people were always trying to get me to go play more sports. I guess sports were supposed to teach me about getting in shape, working with a bunch of other people and following rules or something. As you can see, all those things … Continue reading Cartoonish Behavior Bitter Friday Giftures
Come out and Play Bitter Friday Giftures
When I was in 3rd and 4th grade, I was a fairly athletic and yet very lazy person. The neighborhood kids at my school always wanted to play football after school and would call a bunch of people to come play. When I was done with school all I wanted to do was come home … Continue reading Come out and Play Bitter Friday Giftures
Walking Billboard Bitter Friday Giftures
This morning when I was getting ready, I noticed something. I put on a Nike shirt, a Nike sweatshirt, some Nike shoes and some Gap jeans.

I'm not sure that I like Nike for any particular … Continue reading Walking Billboard Bitter Friday Giftures

Flying Under the Radar Bitter Friday Giftures
I've never done skydiving or had wings. I'm not a bird or a pterodactyl. I'm not a jet pilot and I don't have a pilot's license. In other words, I don't know how to fly. I have taken some airline flights before, but I've never been to space. I do however, fly under radars. I … Continue reading Flying Under the Radar Bitter Friday Giftures
Bitter Film Review of Gravity Starring Sandra Bullock
There are bad movies that are so bad that they are still good. Then there are good movies that are so good they are really bad. Then there are movies like Gravity starring Sandra Bullock and kind of George Clooney. Yes, I am talking about a movie that came out last October and made … Continue reading Bitter Film Review of Gravity Starring Sandra Bullock
Bitter Pic of the week
I love the end of the month, because it is a way where we can all come together and assign tasks to each that we have been procrastinating for the whole month. I think it brings us father apart as friends and family and co-workers. I like to think of the last day of the month, … Continue reading Bitter Pic of the week
Doctor Bitterness
Most people would be surprised to know this about me, but I am neither invincible or indestructible. Because of this, from time to time, I get sick. Sometimes I even have pain. I am very bitter about this, but it is something even I have to deal with. When my drug of choice, Aleve, isn't … Continue reading Doctor Bitterness

Everyday I drive to work there are like a million signs(I started a count and by the end I just estimated) everywhere I look.  Sometimes while I drive I get so busy texting or reading my email that I don't have time to look up and ignore them, but the number of them are just mind boggling(or is … Continue reading Sign bitterness
