Checking In at The White Lotus
Quick and sharp switch up here: Is anyone watching season 3 of The White Lotus? Man, I love that show. Solving a murder in a luxury hotel? What’s not to love? It’s two of my favorite things. And, as with all things, there has been quite a bit of talk on social media (well, Threads,…

Weird Crimes: Pringles Wine and Face-Licking Edition
In a world full of horrible, violent crimes, I find myself seeking out and clinging to the weird crime stories. Luckily, this past month has given us two excellent examples to ponder. Even better, they both involve women perpetrators (#whorunstheworld #girlcrimebosses). First, a woman in Wichita Falls, Texas was banned from the local Walmart. Her…

This Town Might Have a Dead Body Problem
Hey, who likes to hear about dead bodies? Or maybe I should say, “near misses with floating dead bodies?” I mean, who doesn’t, amiright? I realize this is a pretty abrupt manner in which to get started back into blogging. BUT, as a die-hard murderino (SSDGM, MFM crew), I have to post about this crazy,…

Weird Crimes: Colorado’s Serial Sidewalk Pooper Makes My Day
Every once in a while, a new story breaks through all the worry and malaise burdening the national consciousness, (and myself, in particular, which is really the only worry and malaise I can actually, honestly attest to). This bright, glittery meteor of a human interest (?) story somehow—someway—against all news judgement and journalistic standards manages…

Friday Links: Snow Art and Snatched Crowns Edition
Airline workers kill time by drawing a giant dick next to one of their planes. This actually sums up perfectly how I feel about winter. Plus it reminds me of the infamous “Below Deck” episode where the chief steward made blanket art in the shape of a penis but insisted it was a misinterpreted rocket…

Maybe I Should Play the Lottery Next
Sometimes you do something so stupid and potentially dangerous it puts a pit in your stomach and lingers around you for a whole day. I’m not talking about something irresponsible, like, say, for example, staying far too long at a happy hour and not eating anything except a couple of chips and a teaspoon of…

Friday Links: Don’t Clip Your Nails at Home Depot
Little bit late on the links this morning. But there’s some pretty good one’s in this week’s edition, so pull up a chair, put on a fancy dress, grab some foreign cheese and get your dubstep on. I am quite unfortunate to have not one, but by my count, at least two co-workers who think…

Friday Links: Russian Cat Portraits and Dolly Parton
Welp, I made it through another week as a single pet parent and house caretaker. I’ve only peed my pants imagining someone was breaking in to murder me about 25 times this week, including one very terrifying instance where I was woken up at 5 a.m. by the sound of XFE’s shower mirror falling in…

I’m Going to Recommend You Not Swat At That TNT-Coated Bee
Bees are crazy interesting creatures. For example, did you know a honey bee can fly for up to six miles and as fast as 15 miles per hour. And to make one pound of honey, a bee would have to fly around 90,000 miles, which comes out to about 3 times around the globe, and,…

How Do I Put This Delicately?
For someone who is not involved in the medical or porn industries, I’ve certainly seen more than my fair share of …ahem…lady bits lately. For the record, “more than my fair share,” would be anything over the number one. And, again, for the record and clarification, I’m talking about nether regions. Boxes. Muffs. Putangs. I’m…
