It completely blows my mind that in a climate where there is a chance for snow at least 7 months out of the year SO MANY FUCKING PEOPLE CAN’T DRIVE IN IT!
Seriously. Did you forget how to drive in the 2 days since it last snowed?
I’ve decided it’s not the snow itself that’s the problem, [...]

Most of you already know there are a lot of things out there that piss me off. In the spirit of my own sanity and having my own platform to bitch, I present to you the first in a mostly semi-monthly probably-whenever-the-fuck-something-pisses-me-off series I’m calling: Chances Are You Piss Me Off.

Hi. We own our home. We’ve lived here 2 1/2 years, and love it, SO STOP SENDING YOUR CHRISTMAS CARDS TO MR & MRS BRADLEY.

If I had a camera phone, I would have definitive photographic proof for the internets of a dude driving an SUV around metro-Detroit with an almost-life-sized MANGER SCENE strapped to the roof rack. As I drove by with my mouth open, silently mouthing a giant WHATTHEFUCK, my only question was not WHY? but CAN HE [...]
