New Year, New Awesomeness: Jimmie Is Ready for His Instalanche, Professor

Jimmie Bise Jr. describes improvements to his Sundries Shack blog, including “a new webhost that will give me a lot more bandwidth so that the next time Glenn Reynolds wants to Instalanche me, my blog will withstand the traffic onslaught like Lieutenant Dan strapped to the main mast.” Two words of advice, Jimmie: Dog sex. […]

Messed-Up People Make Bad Choices in Disastrously Dysfunctional Relationships

Instapundit had this headline: 21ST CENTURY RELATIONSHIPS: My Ex Posted “Revenge Porn” Photos Of Me. OK, so this was intriguing, but the whole “revenge porn” theme was forgotten as soon as I started reading the article by the (obviously pseudonymous) “Rhoda Kelly”: I started dating Rob toward the end of high school. He was five […]

In Which @MattKLewis Makes @BenHowe His Enemy for Life
