My daughter heard me say "I fell in love 'head over heels'" and she said, "Daddy How come they don't say 'heels over head'?"
I said, "That comes later."

Donโ€™t worry, if Valentineโ€™s Day doesnโ€™t ruin your bank account, St. Patrickโ€™s Day is right around the cornerโ€”thatโ€™s when we celebrate alcoholism. iโ€™m Irish, Iโ€™m already calling a bankruptcy attorney.

Valentineโ€™s Day: a tender, candlelit, dopamine-fueled shakedown. If you need a designated day to say โ€œI love you,โ€ your relationship is already a dumpster fire, and no overpriced soufflรฉ is gonna haul it out. #ValentinesDay

The greeting card companies, the florists, the chocolatiersโ€”they got together like a cartel of emotional loan sharks and figured out how to turn love into a transaction. They turned โ€œI love youโ€ into โ€œWe take Visa.โ€ โค๏ธ #ValentinesDay

"One of the great tragedies of mankind is that morality has been hijacked by religion. So now people assume that religion and morality have a necessary connection. But the basis of morality is really very simple and doesn't require religion at all."

Arthur C. Clarke

You were always on point with the tough questions in that press room. I will be following you on Substack! Youโ€™re like the Dave Chappelle of news, not afraid to walk away when the networkโ€™s morals caved.

I dated a girl like the bi-polar weather in CA. I called her the โ€œIce Princess.โ€ Sheโ€™d be happy in the morning. When Iโ€™d come home at night, before I went in, Iโ€™d touch the front door with my tongue. If it stuck, Iโ€™d stay at the neighborโ€™s.

How to write 1-liners like Steven Wright.
1. Grab 10-20 single subject idioms.
2. Find the paradoxes.

โ€œThey said I need a nest egg, then they said donโ€™t put all your eggs in one basket. So do I need a nest or a basket? I feel like the chicken is fucking with my retirement.โ€

i think the executive orders directing agencies to end energy efficiency regulations and open up more land to drilling and mining is so indicative of the character of the american right โ€” in its view everything, whether people or our larger environment, is something to be exploited and dominated

Nice example of George Carlinโ€™s philosophy of finding the unassailable truth. Just look one or two layers deeper into the story and there lies the hypocrisy.

My oldest son is 31, when he was in Grammar school they decided that they werenโ€™t going to teach cursive. I was like how are they going to learn how to read important documents. The principal was like what important documents? I was like, โ€œI donโ€™t know, maybe like the Declaration of Independence.โ€

Can you read cursive? It's a superpower the National Archives is looking for. The National Archives is looking for volunteers with an increasingly rare skill: Reading cursive.

44 Republicans Voted Against Forest Management Wildfire Prevention in December The funds allow states like California to create barriers to stop the spread of fires

Why would they want to put America (and Americans) First when their voting record clearly shows they want their neighbors to either die a horrible death, lose everything they own, or both?
