Why I Hate Witty People

The definition of wit arose in a discussion I had the other night over beer and hamburgers.

I Say, Tomato; You Say, What’s That?

Growing up, I was a picky eater. Tomatoes were persona non grata on my plate.

Oranges were also out of the question. If we were meant to eat them, why… Continue reading I Say, Tomato; You Say, What’s That?

Is That The Bog Of Eternal Stench Or Your Face?
