In the midst of all of it, the craziness, the new classes, the new schedule, the getting up at 5:30 am in the morning again, to the going to bed at midnight, to the projects, the football practice and homework times 3, I found time to watch of all movies, The Expendables 3. Let's go … Continue reading My Bitter Expendable Life

The Weapons of The Introvert
I imagine being an extrovert can be a pretty bitter and exhaustingly hard job. You are always on the offensive, trying to hunt down people to interact with, to way overtalk with; like a mosquito trying for its next human arm fix. Though somehow I'm sure even the hunt for other people is energizing to … Continue reading The Weapons of The Introvert
Bitterly Bad Decision Monday
I make really bad decisions on a daily basis, but when given two days of "freedom" on the weekend there are even worse decisions made. For instance, this weekend there was the whole sleepover thing that lead to me going to bed at 9:40 pm Friday (the life of an old year old.) This lead me … Continue reading Bitterly Bad Decision Monday
In case you missed it…because you were busy getting season finalied
You always know the season finales are happening when the world starts spinning as fast as a hurricane, tornado, volcano and the Flash combined. You know when a divorce, marriage, death, and merger all happen to the same person in the same hour. So I completely don't understand how you could have missed a moment … Continue reading In case you missed it…because you were busy getting season finalied
Bitter Pizza Me
If you know me in real life (which you really don't want to), you know that not a Friday may pass without pizza being in my life (and by in my life, I mean in my stomach). It is one of the least complicated and best traditions I've ever had. It ensures that … Continue reading Bitter Pizza Me
My terrible interview with James Lipton on Inside the Bitter Actor’s Studio
As you may know, I was recently preparing my speech for my nomination to get into the Bitter Hall of Fame. Though I was nominated, I didn't get in. As per normal, I got within in one vote of getting in and I blame the people who don't follow my blog. To say I am bitter about it is an … Continue reading My terrible interview with James Lipton on Inside the Bitter Actor’s Studio
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. That would be a tragedy if that happened. Because you know that … Continue reading In case you missed it…because you were entranced by a Yule Log
If you missed it…you were probably in a tryptophan coma
A long time ago (a whole Thursday ago), you went to someone's house that didn't like you, and you didn't like them, but you were forced to because they insisted that you not sit at home alone blissfully playing video games or laying on the couch. You drove three hours to get to their house, … Continue reading If you missed it…you were probably in a tryptophan coma
Friday “Why do we have to be here again?” Picture Bitterness
So Halloween happened yesterday, on a Thursday(in case you can't read calendars or are not the master of obvious like me). This post is dedicated to all those who either forgot that it was Thursday yesterday and it was near impossible to drag themselves out of bed, or are like me and remembered, but don't … Continue reading Friday “Why do we have to be here again?” Picture Bitterness
Bitter Reasons to be tall
I guess today is a holiday, though how would I know it? I'm at work, doing work (well, not right now) and I see no evidence of it being a holiday at all other than there are some oversized spiders hanging from the ceiling and spider webs everywhere. There is also some weirdo that doesn't have … Continue reading Bitter Reasons to be tall
Amazing Race: The Bitter Review
Yesterday, I was inside most of the day watching our LDS Worldwide Church Conference on TV. My kids were bugging each other all day, so I decided to take them outside so I could see what the outdoors looked like. We were really ambitious and decided to go on a walk. After losing my breath after … Continue reading Amazing Race: The Bitter Review
Realistic Expectations for Houses Bitterness
Although it is my neighbors sincere wish that I move far away from them, I am not hunting for houses. I've never been much of a hunter anyways, because that would require that I do it at least one time. Looking at houses in my spare time isn't much fun either because I look at them almost every … Continue reading Realistic Expectations for Houses Bitterness
The Bitter Failure of Sports
One day when I was at home and I got a phone call. I was surprised because I never get phone calls at home, or anywhere else for that matter. I picked up the phone using my most bitter voice, since I was so rudely being interupted from doing nothing. "Hi, this is Chris* from Sports Illustrated … Continue reading The Bitter Failure of Sports
Friday Friday Friday Picture Bitterness
As we come to the end of yet another first week of school, I think about the fact that this is my son's first full half week of half days of "real school" known as kindergarten. Every week this will make me more bitter because he already closing the gap on how much smarter I am … Continue reading Friday Friday Friday Picture Bitterness
Bitter Entertainment News (B.E.N.)
As a lifelong ignorer of news, I usually have no idea what is happening in Bosnia or Washington DC or even Seattle. Sure I've heard of the occasional Disney princess (Miley Virus anyone?) going awry or the forecast of an actual sunny day in Seattle, but the news interferes with me playing video games or napping, which are way more … Continue reading Bitter Entertainment News (B.E.N.)
Bitter Insurance Commercials
Every day, as I am driving, I roll down my window, pull out my wallet and let the money fly right out. Not literally, of course, are you crazy?(I only do that on special occasions.) Every six months I pay someone several hundred dollars to "give me piece of mind" for the off chance that I may accidently … Continue reading Bitter Insurance Commercials
Zombie Apocalypse Bitterness
With the recent outbreak (get it?) of popular movies like World War Z and television shows like The Walking Dead people are worried about a zombie apocalypse. They should be worried. Though it appears that most of us are just normal, average, everday citizens, the Zombie Apocalypse is actually upon us right now. If you don't … Continue reading Zombie Apocalypse Bitterness
Bitter Picture Bonanza of the week
I used to think that turtles didn't have much use because they were slow. It wasn't until I got older that I realized that I wanted to be just like them. They said we couldn't learn anything from turtles, and by "they" I mean "them". You know, the guys that say things and girls that say stuff. Turtles never … Continue reading Bitter Picture Bonanza of the week
Computer Bitterness
There was a time in my life when I was fast. In seventh grade, I remember running a mile in under six minutes. In basketball, my sophomore year, I was the fastest guy on the team. I ran track and mowed the lawn. It was because I naturally gifted and incredibly in shape. I was really … Continue reading Computer Bitterness
Lazy Saturday Bitterness
I am an ambitious person when it comes to not doing things and being lazy. While I don't have time during the week (Monday-Friday) to do laziness, I do my best to plan for it during work hours. Obviously, I try to keep work to a minimum at my job. No need to get too … Continue reading Lazy Saturday Bitterness
