Bro or Pro?

Where have I been?  Had a short stint writing for Brolog.ca.  The site is more professional than this one, but since it was an unpaid gig, I’m still just a bro and not yet a pro.  I did notice, however, that my articles got the most Facebook shares and tweets.  Google Analytics corroborates their story.  So if anything, at least it’s a little encouragement to keep on going. Hope you enjoy reading these … Read entire article »

I Gave Myself a Tattoo

I Gave Myself a Tattoo

I got a tattoo.  It covers my entire body.  I did the whole thing at once.  And I did it myself. It would be all but impossible, if not for the design I chose: Null.  i.e., I’ve given myself a Null tattoo.  i.e., There is not a drop of ink on my entire body. So…you didn’t get a tattoo… Oh no, … Read entire article »

Is Chop Suey Chinese Food?

Is Chop Suey Chinese Food?

NO!!! No self respecting Chinese person would eat at a “Chinese” restaurant that is mainly populated by white folk, lest they want to risk being smote by their ancestors.  It also doesn’t help that they serve chop suey, egg foo yung, sweet and sour pork, General Tso’s chicken, and other crap that Chinese and discerning non-Chinese alike turn … Read entire article »

So you want a man who’s in control?  Who takes the lead?  Then STFU about wanting a man who leads.  How’s that for being in control?  Not what you … Read entire article »

What is the Self? Get Naked and See!

What is the Self? Get Naked and See!

I’m often IDed to see if I’m old enough, sometimes to see if I’m young enough, and occasionally to see if I’m black enough (it’s in the other pocket, hun).  My ID has my name, my picture, my age, my address, my height and my weight about 15 lbs ago.  And this is supposed to represent Me?  The thing I call “I”?  What … Read entire article »

Quoted For Truth: Hypocrisy

Quoted For Truth: Hypocrisy

Every accusation of hypocrisy is also an act of hypocrisy.  —NaughtyGnosiophile That is, unless the accuser has never been a hypocrite ever before in their life. It doesn’t mean we can’t assert that somebody is being a hypocrite.  The key word here is “accuse”.  Making a constructive observation one thing, but to indignantly judge others for something that we ourselves have done before is the … Read entire article »
