Touch Screens Are Over. Even Apple Is Bringing Back Buttons. Product designers are embracing how users actually feel after years of pushing flat and sleek Man, do I ever hope this guy is right, because I hate touch screens. I say that without the slightest hint of exaggeration. If there was a regular old push …

I Think You’ve Just Crossed A Line, MLB Audio
On this final day of the Major League Baseball regular season, I would like to take a second to offer the heartiest of fuck yous to the MLB app for cutting away from the legendary Bob Uecker while he was in the midst of giving his feelings on the end of the Oakland Athletics so …

Welcome To Amarillo, Sandman
For the longest time, I’ve had “Amarillo by Morning” by George Strait in my head. Not constantly, but on and off for months. I don’t know how it got there or why it refused to leave, but it resulted in me listening to it now perhaps more than I did when it was new. Lately, …
What If Back In Black Was An Emo Song
I’m sure it would sound a little something like this, because everything around that time sounded like this. Dude nailed it. I re-imagined ACDC’s Back in Black in the style of 2004-2007 emo bands! You know the ones, they had two singers, and neither of them could really sing, but you could tell they meant …
You Won’t Be Hearing About Our New Posts On Twitter Anymore
Judging by the stats this isn’t likely to mean much to most of you, but if you’re still one of those people who finds out that we’ve posted something by seeing a notification on Twitter, get ready to start not doing that. I haven’t done a thing there since ol’ Numbnuts bought the place a …

Goldust Tells The Story Of Getting Tourette’s
Hey there, wrestling fans. Remember that time when Goldust got electrocuted and wound up having Tourette’s for a while? No? Good for you. This was back in 2003, a couple years into the period where it had become abundantly clear that WWE had no competition left but desperately needed some. If you’ve never seen one …

Raw Is Going Back To Two Hours Again, At Least For A While. Thank You, Lord!
I have been waiting for this day since 2012. It’s just a shame it has to start in October and not next week. Even though the shows are orders of magnitude better now that Vince is outa here, three hours a week is too much. It’s especially too much when you’re expecting people to watch …

Bell Lost A Court Case Over Shitty Customer Service, But It Won’t Matter
Man, do we ever feel this guy’s pain. The case pertains to Gilles Tessier, a man who attempted to cancel his satellite TV plan way back in May 2019. At the time, Tessier was told in a phone call that service would be cancelled the next day, but noticed the following month that he had …

Faster Than A Speeding Gullet
I imagine emptying out a gun shop is the sort of thing that would make a fella pretty hungry, but next time, maybe try holding those cravings until you and your rented car are a little further from the scene of the crime. A gang who stole firearms from a gun shop were caught when …
Love Is Alive, By…Gwen Stefani?
I have no idea what the rest of this Judds tribute album sounds like, but the version of “Love Is Alive” that Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani did for it is shockingly good. I don’t mean that disrespectfully. It’s just that it was kind of hard for me to imagine the girl from No Doubt …
