They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. Even as a writer I have to say that sometimes this is true. A good photograph should be a perfect snapshot of time, a fleeting scene that's preserved forever like an insect trapped in amber. But taking a nice pic…

Late night talk shows have changed a lot. There used to be just a couple choices, and now there's a million: Kimmel, Colbert, Fallon, Meyers, Corden, Bee, Noah, O'Brien, Klepper, Maher - yeah, they're mostly white dudes, but so what?: As a white dude, I have to admit, we're great…

As someone who knows all too well how it feels to suffer a broken bone (yes, I was very drunk, and yes, it still hurt so much), I recoil in horror at the mere thought of stepping foot inside a UFC Octagon. Despite the obvious padding, the quintessential UFC battleground…

Nicki Minaj is a woman who hugely divides opinion. On the one hand, there are people who believe that she is simply a sex symbol; a representation of all that is wrong with the music industry with her being "pimped" out by the executives in charge of her career. But,…

Thanks to the freedom of speech, we can talk trash about every president. (Suck it, Warren G. Harding!) But it's generally agreed upon that we should leave the children out of it. Yes, they're in the public eye, but they're kids. They should be off-limits from political attacks. But sometimes…

Yesterday President Trump ordered the Pentagon to create a sixth military branch called the Space Force, and no, this is not an Onion article.
