My mom's memorial service is today - exactly two weeks after she suffered a sudden cardiac episode that ultimately proved fatal.
If there are people you care about, never pass up a chance to tell them. There may not be as many opportunities to do so as you think.
In the latest episode of Doom Patrol, Larry (a.k.a. Negative Man) casually mentions that he recently went to Costco, and my first thought was "WHY WASN'T THAT AN EPISODE?!"
I hate that when people talk about The Sopranos, no one ever mentions that Paulie made the most succinct, rational, well-reasoned argument for handwashing in television history.
The unmasked man ahead of me in line for a booster shot claimed that his wife had active COVID but that he personally felt fine… before proceeding to launch into a coughing fit without covering his mouth.
If I’d had any faith in humanity, this pandemic would have killed it.
Happy birthday, Mom. It’s the second one you’re not here for, and every time I go to sleep, I hope that I’ll wake up in a world in which you still exist.
My mom took me to see the '93 Super Mario Bros. movie on opening night, and I remember walking away entertained. As an adaptation of the source material, it's not great, but taken on its own, I think it's a reasonably fun sci-fi/adventure flick.
I'd say chronic stress is destroying my life, but I'd hate to overlook the contributions from ever-present anxiety, continuous grief, and despondent depression.

Turning 39 today, meaning I am now officially as old as Homer Simpson. For context, when the show began, I was younger than every character but Maggie.

The last time I was forced to do this (at an event for a former employer), it felt like the entire room laughed at me, thereby validating my social anxiety.
Name a cartoon that only you remember.
The Pink Panther - but the one from the early ‘90s in which P.P. actually spoke and was voiced by the guy who played Max Headroom.
"Ever see Lethal Weapon?"
"Yeah, I'm a die-hard fan."
"Being a Die Hard fan is fine, but I'm asking about Lethal Weapon."
"And I told you I'm a die-hard fan."
"How does this preclude you from discussing other action franchises?!"

To call 2023 a difficult year would be an understatement, but I am immensely grateful for all the friends I’ve made on this platform, as well as all the kindness I’ve been shown throughout an immensely trying time. Hope all of you have an amazing year.
The reason it took a Beetlejuice sequel so long to materialize is that it's very difficult to avoid saying his name three times when pitching such a project.
Happiest of birthdays to my amazing mother, who would have been 71 today. She is missed every second of every day, and I don't think I will ever feel whole without her.
"I want to watch That '70s Show."
"Which '70s show? Charlie's Angels?"
"No! That '70s Show."
"The Incredible Hulk? The Bionic Woman?"
"I'm saying I want to watch THAT '70S SHOW."
"And I'M saying I'm not a mind reader!"
