Those Silly Swedish Dutch

I don’t know why I never posted this before. If a trip to Ikea isn’t amusing enough, you can check out this website. Just let it load and don’t touch anything once it’s done, the webpage will take over and give you a cute little walkthrough of the products on the page. The boombox is [...]

Things That Would Seem Like Common Sense:

Cheerios do not make good pre-gym fuel. Mixed with a cup of coffee, this is almost a certain death sentence 30 minutes in. We’re out of steel cut oats, which is usually what I have before heading out on Saturday mornings. So halfway through the weights class, I’d pretty much burnt through breakfast and that [...]

Oh, joy!

Working on Valentine’s Day. Mrs. G has already cried once, upset (and probably drunk) she couldn’t help stand her husband up. Been running my arse off since I got here. The dining room manager can’t help but be himself (read: flagrant a-hole), even on this WONDERFUL holiday. One of the residents made a remark about [...]

OkCupid sucks.

That time has come. The reality of the stupidness of the online dating world has finally struck me. It’s virtually impossible to meet anyone of any substance, and the amusement I used to get out of keeping my profiles up and letting the moronic Arizona boys message me has turned into disgust.

Moar fun with OkCupid!

THIS JUST IN: OKCUPID INFESTED WITH TROLLS Once again, I’m not sure why I keep my online dating profiles. It’s become quite clear to me that I’m probably *not* going to meet anybody seemingly compatible, and if by chance I do, they’ll either not be interested, or have some other fatal flaw that will render [...]
