The Xbox Series X Box
I was definitely a good boy this year because Santa left a shiny new Xbox Series X under the Christmas tree — with my name on it. It wasn't wrapped in gift wrapping paper because, well, to be honest with you, I bought it for myself. It had my
Mr. Coffee
Most Americans need gas to get them to and from work; they also need coffee to get them through the eight-hour workday. I'm impressed that one gallon of liquid can power a 3,000-pound car across town. But, I’m more impressed with how people can suffer through
Bidet
A bidet is a toilet attachment that shoots water up your ass. They are popular in Europe (according to my girlfriend) and, more importantly, she really wants to get one for our bathroom. I do not want a bidet. Call me old fashioned, insecure in my masculinity, or a tight-ass,

Where do we go when we die? It’s a question that has plagued humanity forever. I’m not religious but, I’m pretty sure that anybody who disrespects the Oxford comma is going to hell. And for those who put pineapple on their pizza, heaven awaits you. Some argue

Authentic
Press Coffee on Apache Blvd was a haven for me. A place away from home where I could work away on my MacBook and get stuff done. When it closed down, a small part of me was lost. It was a chain but, it was a local chain with great
Skylight
It was a skylight. A skylight is a cut-out that replaces a portion of a roof with a see-through mesh or glass panel. This causes the sun's light to disperse through the room. I've watched Batman cut a circle into one and rappel down through it
The Reusies
Can't we recycle all plastic? I recently helped organize a watch party for The Reusies at Arizona State University. Before the show started, I gave a short presentation giving context on why The Reusies exists. I spoke about plastics in the ocean, recycling, and how these things have
