As a homeowner, I have chosen the life of a handyman. When I finally looked upon my domicile and fully fathomed that I owned it, the life of the handyman was instantly thrust upon me. Immediately I began to furiously plan what my next improvements would be, their budget, their time frame and the tools…
I’m so tired of people acting like they’re too good for McDonald’s. As a Millennial, my peers and I had front seat tickets to the PR roller coaster than the McDonald’s brand has gone through since the mid 2000s. As children, we bought into the Happy Meal charm, much like previous generations. I loved McD’s…
It appears to me that all of one’s belongings lie on a spectrum with regard to their importance. “Importance” being the best term I can think of for this instance. As objects continue along this spectrum, they take more primacy in one’s life and become more and more a representation of their owner. There is…
Obviously this list is biased. My perspective is unique to a 29 year-old male living in Boise, ID. My criteria is mostly centered around weather, sporting events and holidays.

I just started playing Halo Infinite with my buddy. We had been playing Call of Duty since Modern Warfare came out two years ago. We played that for about 1.5 years and then switched to COD Vanguard (skipped Cold War). We like Call of Duty a lot, as well as Halo. For our generation, Halo…

I’m on a cul-de-sac, which is just peak domestication. I need a white picket fence and a bigger dog! The topic today popped…
We got an offer on our house accepted this Saturday. It happened so quickly. One day we see it on Zillow, then we go see it, then we put an offer in. Totally change our entire plan in a span of 2 days. But I am very excited and relieved. Although it isn’t cheap, I…
Jon Gruden has been cancelled, which I find humorous. But I’m not here to rant about the reasons why Gruden should or shouldn’t be cancelled. I’m here to rant about something I’ve noticed in sports particularly, but also in society in general. This phenomenon is the dissolving of the distinction between public and private life,…
Found out we might have to knock down the house I thought would be my first house. I need to stop getting my hopes up. A man addicted to ideas need be intervened with starvation. A man addicted to truths need be fed. I am reading Matthew McConaughey’s book “Green Lights” and this little witticisms…
