My boss' kid(who is 35) asked if I wanted to go to a Yung Gravy concert with him. To say that YG isn't my particular cup of tea is me being charitable on a Melinda Gates level. I could enjoy it ironically, but I need drugs and alcohol for that - and I'm on the wagon.

A friend told me she went to a guy’s house & discovered he's a hoarder. She was disgusted. Then she said, unprompted: “So I didn’t fuck him, but I gave him a handjob.” I asked, “Did you at least make a game out of it? Like aiming for the stack of books in the corner or vintage Jet magazine?”

Me and my lady are both great with strangers, with one key distinction. I'm good with strangers when it benefits me. She's good with strangers seemingly for the love of the game. And that shit is unacceptable.

Before my prostatectomy, my urologist explained that when I eventually have sex - because I'd no longer have a prostate - semen would no longer shoot out. He said it would "dissolve in the body" So I said, "So I'd routinely creampie myself?" He shook his head. His staff laughed.

There's a meme online asking dudes who they'd take, prime Jill Scott or prime Janet Jackson? A view I've seen often, one dressed up as a hot take - gives it to Jill. But as an old school scumbag, let me ask you a question: Have you seen the "Pleasure Principle" video?

I was watching a Marilyn Monroe doc on YouTube. One of the archival clips was of her boarding some railway service - which is apropos, because you could clearly see that Norma Jean was thicker than train smoke. Then I felt compelled to yell out, "I just know Arthur Miller wasn't fucking her right!"

My girlfriend's put her up in this fancy hotel. So fancy in fact that I felt that not putting out wasn’t an option. I told her that she made me feel like Julia Roberts in "Pretty Woman". She asked, "In what way?" - I replied, "You routinely make this whore want a better life."

Coming back from visiting my love, taking the train back to Virginia Beach from Quantico. Because of the heightened security alert - they weren't allowing anyone on the train station on base. Thanks Trump, you diaper wearing inbred sack of orangutan shit.

A decade after we broke up, a woman I dated reappeared to explain how what she did wasn’t technically cheating. I offered no rebuttal. Some arguments are best appreciated as performance art. Well played, ma’am.

I'm such a sucker for the original "Magnim P.I. series that I give the reboot a decent amount of grace. I mean, it's not horrible - and some of the same things that make the original so great dont age particularly well 40 years later.

By the time my dad was my age he had went to war 3 times. Twice voluntarily. Taught, molded & led men in the military. Raised 3 kids, adopted my 2 older siblings. Started a successful car repair business. At 52, I'm happier than a pig in shit that my lady got me a PS5. But that's where we're at.

I recognize Frank Sinatra's mixed history when it comes to race. From having Sammy's back, to calling him slurs behind his back when they were beefing, to him supporting civil rights, to him supporting Nixon. That said, I'm sure Sinatra would tell Miller to go fuck himself.

Also, that "If I can change, you can change, we all can change" speech by Rocky at the end of the fight? Fuck that. You killed my best friend, motherfucker. You're lucky that an ass whipping is the worst that you got.

I saw a relentlessly ignorant, aggressively moronic critique of the late Anthony Bourdain. A bad take that will leave you with a few less I.Q points. Come to find out, that person was Bari Weiss' sister. I mean, is everyone in that family a steaming sack of shit?

My barber was playing Dave Chappelle's new special. It's one thing if the trans stuff was funny. It's another thing if he lost his proverbial fastball and uses it as a crutch. It was none of the above and I'm confused. It was truly a stain on a pretty strong performance.
