Satirical Dumbness

As always, I began my day yesterday surfing the news and ran across something provocative to write about. The New Yorker magazine published its latest issue with a “satirical” caricature on the front cover. If you haven’t heard or seen it yet, it’s a depiction of Barack Obama with his wife Michelle in an unappealing […]

At the end of May, I wrote an article explaining a new term I invented, “mouthacity.” If you haven’t had a chance to read it, I suggest you go check it out. Today’s article is “Part 2” with some of the latest events involving people in the media saying things that should not be said. […]

Since I’m currently enamored with making up words, I thought of another one. As I mentioned in yesterday’s first paragraph, I was struck with an idea while I was writing the article.

Best Left Unsaid

by in Everyday Nonsense | 2,499 views | Reading Time 4:29

Today, in a public forum I read, I came across a statement that to me was offensive. As the article title suggests, it was most definitely a comment best left unsaid. The sad thing about it is I’ve heard this statement before, in various formats and configurations. It makes me wonder if the average person […]

Are we ready for some Political Beef? I know it can be a polarizing subject, but this one isn’t going to be an article asking to choose a side in the sense of Democrat versus Republican. This particular beef is going to be about something that to me makes me want to pull my hair […]
