I Thought An Artisanal” Ice Cube Was A Popsicle

Dear god. Please tell me that people are not seriously willing to pay an extra dollar to have a bartender plunk an “artisanal” ice cube into their drinks. A Manhattan will set you back $14 at forthcoming downtown restaurant and bar Second State. Want it on the rocks? That will be a dollar more—for a total of $15. …

You Should Try Alpine Lager. Just Don’t Chug It, Because That’s Dumb

So here I am, enjoying a late afternoon beer when this pops up in my RSS reader. Chugging Is Dumb I’m not gonna lie. The ability to chug a beer impresses me somewhat for one simple reason. I can’t do it. But just because you can do it doesn’t mean you should. It really is …

The Other Episodes Of We Regret The Error

The other day, Carin asked me what ever became of that We Regret The Error thing that Deadspin was doing. It turns out that the one I posted marked June 2013 was the last one they did, giving up because the news really is that incompetent and they couldn’t keep up. But the 3 they …

They Must Have Used Apple Maps

I’ll be honest with you. My geography skills are terrible. Like I could probably get confused finding the difference between Scotland, Ontario and Scotland, Scotland terrible. That’s not ok. But it’s more ok than it would be if my job were making maps that made sense and were accurate. Good thing my job is making …

Haven’t seen one of these in a while. Following a prior assault conviction, Kelly John Lange, a 34-year-old Sioux Falls resident, was ordered by a judge to attend anger management classes.

Coming Up Next, A Big Story About 50.50.Bean!

This made me laugh really hard. I guess, on some of India’s news channels, they have casual staff serving as news anchors. The other day, Xi Jimping, China’s president, finished up a big visit to India. But, as one unfortunate casual news anchor found out, the president’s name is not the Roman numeral 11. What …

No Matter What A Stripper Tells You…

We say this somewhat frequently, but it seems it’s not sinking in so let’s give it another try. 911 and the Better Business Bureau are not the same thing. Never have been, never will be. Especially not when the complaint you wish to lodge pertains to the lack of prostitution at the strip club you’re …
