I don’t know all that much about horses. At least, not to the degree people who do ride and care for them, and who would own a store dedicated to them would. I do know they are expensive creatures, as are the items related to them; even the things you wear when riding can be …

On That Day, 15 Years Ago…
We had been back in school for just about a Month. It was early in my Junior year, and it seemed like a pretty typical Tuesday. I don’t recall getting ready that day, but it is funny the things you do remember. In my case, I recall us on the bus discussing the upcoming episode …

It’s Been Quite the Week for Me
For the past couple of weeks now, I haven’t been posting nearly as much as I have wanted to, and while I have cranked out a few YouTube videos, there has been a noticeable decrease in content being created by me on a whole. As part of my transparency to my readers, and for the …

The Worst Person I’ve Ever Worked With – Part 1
As I make known enough for what it’s worth, my “day job” is in retail. Now, I do like what I do, but like any job it invariably has it’s less desirable moments. I sometimes share those, for what they are worth in either an educational sense, or just out of curiosity, for those who …

Don’t Strawman Me
It happens all the time, in virtually every conversation. You are making whatever point you have, be it something mundane, or something major, and, somehow, you realize you are arguing something you didn’t even say, or, better off, didn’t mean. Someone has changed the subject on you, via some method or another, and by the …

Learn to Read Between The Lines
All too often I’m put into arguments that are absolutely pointless simply because someone else is too lazy to use simple context clues and understand what the point being made actually is. The end result is someone arguing a strawman of your position, rather than the actual statement you are making. Yes, this is a …

When a Post Just Doesn’t Trend Well
Sunday afternoon, while killing some time at a local mall, I wrote up a post on Pokemon Go. It wasn’t anything special, but it was a post nonetheless about something amazingly popular at the moment. I had some thoughts to share, and well, felt like sharing them – a mostly positive post from the point …

I Guess People on YouTube Hate the Idea of Reading!
I did a little test today, to see what would happen if I uploaded a short, text and audio only video to promote to the YouTube audience that I had written the article yesterday about the NES Classic. It’s a 26 second video clip that gives a very basic summary, and mentions if you want …

The Wolfchase Mall Sham Shop – An Update!
Last month I wrote about “A sham of a shop in Wolfchase Mall” by the name of Dough Boy Mini’s. The short of the story is this: A friend noticed the shop wasn’t open, and hasn’t ever been open even though it’s been listed as coming soon for over a year, yet the Facebook page …

The Review Plan
Yesterday I wrote about my plans to start reviewing things on here, in conjunction with the usual “whatever” I write about. Of course, before you go just reviewing whatever, you have to have some kind of standard for how you want to do things. Finding reviews will be simple – in the header there will …
