Experience Points BFG’s
When I was 6-8 years old, my family lived in Long Island, NY. Our house had this big backyard with a strip of forested trees that my brothers and I liked to explore. We spent hours in that forest trying to find the shortcut to Narnia. We never found Narnia, but I believe some creatures … Continue reading Experience Points BFG’s
Pilot Light Bitter Friday Giftures
No one ever really thinks too hard about this, (except maybe me) but every year on or around June 21st, in the Northern Hemisphere, we get the highest number of hours of daylight. A lot of people don't think about it, because it's too early in the summer to think about it. Some kids are … Continue reading Pilot Light Bitter Friday Giftures

Bored Games BFG’s
When I was in junior high, it was perfectly acceptable to be outside all day long with no adult supervision. In fact, most parents expected it. I would often get on my 10-speed bike and go for epic bike rides around the city. It was Sioux Falls, SD, in the 80's, so it was the … Continue reading Bored Games BFG’s
Living Rent-Free Bitterness
I've had a dream since I was a young bitterling. Not the type of dream most of you have, like traveling, becoming famous or writing a novel. Actually, I do have the novel dream, and the getting rich part of the rich and famous, but one dream has always stood above all. The reason I … Continue reading Living Rent-Free Bitterness
Pizza Me Bitter Friday Giftures
I still remember it like it was yesterday. I had made the most awkward transition of my life from elementary school to junior high. It was the first day of 7th Grade English, and my teacher asked us all to do my least favorite thing ever. The thing an anxiety ridden, shy, introverted, new-to-junior-high kid … Continue reading Pizza Me Bitter Friday Giftures
Talent Show Bitterness
When I was younger and family reunions were still a thing, we used to go to exotic locations like California, Arizona, or Utah to visit old people. Every time, I would get comments like, "My, how you've grown," or "Why does he always have a scowl on his face?" Then really ancient relatives wouldn't show … Continue reading Talent Show Bitterness
Bitter Code Reuse BFG’s
My wife likes to make fun of me because I'm a routine-oriented guy. I go to sleep at the same time, I wake up at the same time. I eat eggs and peanut butter sandwiches all the time.

The Most Important Chip
My wife and daughter have been out of town since last Friday, so it's just me and my son for the week. My delusional personality figured it would fun and games for the whole week.

Reduced to Atoms BFG’s
If you are a fan of NBA basketball, you just saw the Sacramento Kings break a playoff drought of 17 years. If you want to feel old, that was 2006. To me, that seems like just yesterday, but to my daughter, that was a time she doesn't remember, because she was only 1. And my … Continue reading Reduced to Atoms BFG’s
Senior Recruiting Bitterness
The other day, someone mentioned to me that I don't look a day over 50. I found that rude, because I'm three days over 50 now. If I was a more violent person, I would've taken him to the closest wrestling ring and wrang his neck, but my son is stronger than me now. I … Continue reading Senior Recruiting Bitterness
50 Reasons to Be Bitter
Since I'm 50 years bitter today, I'm supposed to be having my mid-life crisis, but since we all know that I'm not making it to 100, that means I'm well past my mid-life crisis and should have had it a while ago. But since nobody really tells you when this life is over, it's not … Continue reading 50 Reasons to Be Bitter
The Bitter Corruption Industry
Ten years ago, I was living in Seattle at the peak of my misery. If you've lived in Seattle, you know there is only two seasons. One lasts 11 and a half months and it's cloudy, cold, rainy, wet and windy. The other two weeks, the sun vacationed in Seattle, but it was only for … Continue reading The Bitter Corruption Industry
Electric Blue Bitterness
I've spent most of my life trying to spread bitterness like most people spread frozen butterness on their toast. Just like the spreaders of butter on toast, it's hard work and it rarely works out how I want it to. After spreading bitterness for almost 50 years, I finally decided to make the world better … Continue reading Electric Blue Bitterness

Top 10 Lists of all Top 10 Lists I’m on BFG’s
Back in 1996, the NBA released their list of the Top 50 players of all time and as soon as they did, they created a debate among fans.

At the time, most people agreed that Michael Jordan was the GOAT, … Continue reading Top 10 Lists of all Top 10 Lists I’m on BFG’s
Dumb Ways to Die BFG’s
A long time ago, in a land not so far away, 3 other guys and I did a not-planned-very-well-at-all day trip to a canyon, in which they decided to be dumb and drive down into ravine in early May. In the location of which I speak, it was a steep climb back up and snow … Continue reading Dumb Ways to Die BFG’s
Everything is Merging Bitterness
Star Date: December 15, 1984. I don't remember many days in my life. I remember a few of my birthday's and occasionally I remember the day I got married. Sometimes, I remember my kid's births, but beyond that, I don't remember many days. Most of them just merge together. But December 15, 1984 was one … Continue reading Everything is Merging Bitterness
