Not what I had in mind when I searched Google, but okay! As an author, I feel it is my duty to troll my readers. Not just with the usual plot twists and “bwahaha bow to my cleverness!”, oh no, I also have to troll my readers with character names. Case in point, I have…
Damn straight the Truths are orange. Meme time! Well, maybe it’s a meme. I think things only turn into memes for real if people actually repeat them…or something. Anyway, the other night I was watching a movie in which the characters were playing Two Truths And a Lie. And after years and years of playing…
Pikachu is easily impressed, even by fallible machinery. I have a purple ASUS EEE PC 900 that I got three years ago this month to use when I studied abroad in Japan during college…see, my normal laptop at the time was a large 17in desktop replacement and that wasn’t very good for hauling around.

SO LET’S PARTY. First, the statistics. I started this blog on…
Time to post my first short story here! Yay! I don’t often write them, so consider this a special treat! I’m actually working on a short story compilation with a theme of airports/airplanes and other things having to do with air travel. This is the first I’ve written for it although I have other ideas…
hypocrite, much? (WARNING: There’s a lot of fucking swearing in this post.) In real, everyday life…I swear. I swear a lot. On my OKCupid (don’t judge) profile I say that I don’t smoke, but “fuck is my nicotine”. I can clearly the remember the day, a few weeks after my grandmother died when I was…
This covers everything! From the wonderful people over at Not Always Right, Me: “Thank you for calling [Gas Station]. How may I help you?”Customer: “Do you shoot guns?”Me: “Uh… what?”Customer: “Well, I know your gas station hires some athletic young men and I was wondering if you knew anything about guns?”Me: “Actually, I do know…
