We are in the middle of a huge flood. Batten down the hatches and start weatherproofing your house. The cheesy Hallmark, ABC Family, Lifetime, UP Network and all other channel onslaught of Christmas specials are coming.

The Bitter Dust Collector
If you've ever been the least bit obsessed about anything and felt like kind of a tool for liking something too much, just enter the name of that thing into Google and you can find a vast array of people around the world that are WAY more of a tool than you. When I was … Continue reading The Bitter Dust Collector
Bitter Ben’s Movie Review: Furious 7
There's a lot of words that can describe the little movie franchise that could. Fast. Furious. Fast and Furious. 2 Fast 2 Furious. Fast 5. Furious 7. The list of ways to describe it are endless. Somehow I missed this one in the theaters, but I saw it on Blu-Ray this weekend. Let me put … Continue reading Bitter Ben’s Movie Review: Furious 7
Binge Watching Bitterness – Bitter News From the Couch
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwEqzAcTKw8 I'm going to go ahead and assume that all of you tell the truth on every blog post you've ever written, because I certainly always do. Especially that time I told you about my B.I.T.T.E.R. School of Bitterness that educates willing minds about how to be more bitter. And that one time I claimed … Continue reading Binge Watching Bitterness – Bitter News From the Couch
The Reason I became a Bitter Blogger
I am not a multi faceted personality. I am about as interesting as watching toast flavored, grass colored paint drying. I might appear on social media as only a boring dude, but that is because I'm only posting the highlights of my personality. If you followed me around in real life, first of all quit … Continue reading The Reason I became a Bitter Blogger
Scaredy Cat Bitter Friday Giftures
For some reason, around this time of year, fears seem to pop up as an issue. People seems to want to talk about their fear of spiders or ghosts or the dark or cholesterol or the way too upbeatness of SpongeBob. Maybe it's because Halloween brings the spookiness out of people, or this time … Continue reading Scaredy Cat Bitter Friday Giftures
Hospital Bitterness
I may or may not have recently visited the hospital recently. I think some people love them, because they help save lives or help sick people or other important jobs like that. I get that hospitals don't make much money, because they charge so little for their services. I have heard from a reliable source … Continue reading Hospital Bitterness
Bitter Rivalry of the Week: Halloween vs. Christmas
As soon as August ends, summer is unofficially over and what I call the holiday quadrant of the year begins. Let's be honest, no one gets out music and decorations for Flag Day. Or puts up lights in their house for and starts getting ready for St. Patrick's Day. Everybody is pretty patient for holidays … Continue reading Bitter Rivalry of the Week: Halloween vs. Christmas
Rage Quitting Friday Giftures
Back in the old days (pre-Benzoic Era 1973) people were polite when they decided that they didn't want to something anymore. People would write a nice note to their boss apologizing that they needed a little time off of work from the mines that they worked 18 hours a day 7 days a week. … Continue reading Rage Quitting Friday Giftures
Groundhog’s bitterness
Some of you who were born before Bill Murray's Groundhog's Day movie came out in 1993 won't recall this, but before then, Groundhog's day was not known as a day that repeats itself, but a day that was famous for a rodent. Kind of like Disneyland. Let's be honest. When's the last time the hog … Continue reading Groundhog’s bitterness
Bitter Year End Wrap Up
If you don't know this by now, I'm gonna tell you something revolutionary about me. I don't blog like other people. I don't blog about recipes (well, I might do one if there is a recipe with something bitter in it and I learn how to cook someday), write about my family, blog about relationships, … Continue reading Bitter Year End Wrap Up
Twas the Night to Be Bitter
Just so you know, I didn't major in the poetry arts in college. Also, 'Twas the Night Before Christmas is very long and I am very impatient. And by the way, rappers don't always exactly rhyme all the time either and they get paid millions of dollars more than I do. So, with that in … Continue reading Twas the Night to Be Bitter
Bitter Christmas Music
First of all, I want to say to all those out there that are not working this week, because your jobs are awesome and they let you have this week off, or you are a teacher and they "make" you stay home for two weeks, or you are just going to "call in sick" for … Continue reading Bitter Christmas Music
The Bitter Scents of the Season
It's finally December, which as you know, means that it is finally time for awesome characters to come out of the woodwork, like Scrooge and the Grinch stealing Christmas and all kinds of evil villains in movies, like Boss who makes you stay late on Christmas Eve and Boyfriend who is a little too into … Continue reading The Bitter Scents of the Season
Nap and Food Bitter Friday Giftures
I believe that some people are taking this long Labor Day weekend off a little early by taking Friday off (jerks) and of course, that makes me bitter. There are a lot of reasons why you should not take off early, but I can't think of any. This means I will be stewing in my … Continue reading Nap and Food Bitter Friday Giftures
Let Us(By Us I mean You) Get Some Exercise this Weekend Bitterness Giftures
I've been told by television that if you exercise and eat right for like a year, you will lose half your body weight. Your life will "be transformed", everyone will "fake" like you, and you will "find the person of your dreams" and you will get the "promotion you've been striving for", you will get … Continue reading Let Us(By Us I mean You) Get Some Exercise this Weekend Bitterness Giftures
In case you missed it..because you were Tire-d
I screwed up. I messed up big time. I had an extra day and I blew it. I didn't treat yesterday like a Ferris Bueller's Day off. I didn't put every ounce of my laziness into making it the laziest day ever. I got up relatively early. I took a shower aaand used deodorant. I … Continue reading In case you missed it..because you were Tire-d
41 Things I’m Bitter About
It is again that time of year when I get to celebrate all the people asking me stupid questions like, "What are you going to do today?" and "What kind of cake do you want?" and "What presents did you get?" and "How can I annoy you the most today on the day that you … Continue reading 41 Things I’m Bitter About
In Case You Missed It…because you were trying to Save Mr. Banks
If anyone has seen the epic, Saving Mr. Banks, you've seen one of the bitterest characters in cinema history. No, I'm not talking about Walter Disney. The point of the movie wasn't about how P.L. Travers wrote this book about a nanny called Mary Poppins, but how she humiliated the Walt guy by telling him … Continue reading In Case You Missed It…because you were trying to Save Mr. Banks
The Bitter End…of the Year
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
