Here's My Thing

There is no need to be scared of pickled vegetables. It's basically solid kombucha.

Veteran Moves in sports are nothing more than elite levels of situational and self-awareness. And I absolutely love it.

Finally found my new dentist. I always thought that dental facilities were supposed to be in generic, commercial real estate buildings in the suburbs - never thought I'd see a dental office in a downtown setting. I'm glad I did, as this office provided me with more than just a tremendous cleaning, but an epic view of Portland. It was odd, I felt that I was in a luxury movie theatre, but at the same time, I was having people take photos of my teeth.

The modern-day ugly duckling. I appreciate the glow up.

I'd take a prepackaged hard boiled egg from 7/11 over a prepackaged sandwich from basically anywhere.

I think I experienced a phenomenon the other day. Not sure, but I almost added someone I didn't really know on Facebook then I realized it's not 2009.

Forget taking down trees and hanging up lights. I am astonished by the lack of Santa-For-Hire Instagram pages out there. I'd like to think that if you are good at what you do, no reason you aren't bringing home $500 a weekend in December being Mr. Claus. Maybe I'm overestimating - the point being, no reason to hang lights from a sketchy ladder when you can post up in a comfy chair and take photos.

The peanut has little to no talent, but it is the most popular nut in the world.

90% of my eyebrows are in line, normal sideways growth directed towards the temple. However, 10% of my eyebrows for some reason feel the need to grow towards my forehead and I have literally no idea why. Not sure exactly where I went wrong. I'm not here to cry over spilled milk, but if someone knows how to tame my brows please let me know.

The original idea behind the Monday Morning Commute was to record longer episodes to keep people company during their commutes on Monday mornings. I feel that more often than not when you're in your car on Monday morning you're probably going to work or something like it. Come to think of it I don't think any of the 26 MMC episodes had anything to do with work-related stuff. So, for the 27th installment, I discuss networking and my recent experience at a work-related event. After that I quickly touch on free-stuff. Let's have a great day. Enjoy!

The originally celebrated, curiously strong mints, Altoids.

Is Chivalry dead? Depeneds what definiton we are going off.

I don't have a bed frame, and people seem to think that's very odd. There have been a lot of eyebrows being raised, and I'm not sure exactly why. If it's because I'm compromising my health, by all means, please step forward. Aside from that... not sure what's up?

An experience beyond that of the application of the mask.

There was someone, somewhere, at some time that decided that slurping was rude. Your only passes? The first few sips of coffee, tea, and soup. This makes no sense to me - slurping is simply efficient, and to be frank, complementary to the chef.

Who inflates their prices the most? 1) Sporting arenas 2) Airports 3) Movie theaters

I bought a Peyton Manning jersey the other day. A Reebok sponsored blue Peyton Manning #18 Colts jersey. I'm elated. Been thinking about making this purchase for a long time now. The market? eBay.

The hottest deals, but at what cost? Is there a better way to do it?

I couldn't help but draw parallels between Thanksgiving dinner and Creed 2.

Bought a Greek Philly Cheesesteak the other day - basically a Philly Cheesesteak with feta on top. As I was paying I noticed some baklava in an elevated pie case by the register. This opened up a few questions for me.
