I had an epiphany while I was out wandering around avoiding other humans today.
Asking Amiss
When I went to church last Sunday (for the third week in a row, PLEASE CLAP), I asked the pastor for a favor.
The Good Fight
Y’ever notice that the Apostle Paul talked about himself A LOT?
Circling the Drain
I went to church on Sunday, where I lovingly joked with the pastor that I was “three for three, how about that, hurr durr” as you do. Three weeks in a row, open mouth, insert cookie. And I took notes, because I really want to be taking this stuff seriously and thinking about it. The…
The Crushing Force of Positivity

Furthermore, I’ll bet you fifty bucks that when you last used the phrase “Good Samaritan,” you were referring to a stranger…
Less Than Zero
Everything I thought had value is crumbling.
