Halloween PSA

Look, I know that people like candy corn. I think it is gross, but you can enjoy whichever sweet treats you want. But it absolutely does not taste like marshmallows. Whoever started this malicious rumor should be ashamed. (Also send me all of the Left Twix you don't want.)

Traffic trouble?

This is not the first time a driver has almost hit me because they weren't paying attention. The reason I shared this today was to ask you to put down your fancy gadgets while your driving. Not everyone will be alert like I was, so just be sure to watch what you're doing behind the wheel.

Retail story: Ornament return

I did my best to read the review, but I wanted to share it here to show you that a real person wrote it:

Hated video games

Thanks again to Jen for this question! I was ill-prepared to do all of that reading, but I learned some stuff about some games.

Headspace

Thanks so much to our new friends, Headspace, for the tune! Get Feel Something here and book your trip to Phoenix to see them live!

NFL Week 6: Washington Redskins at Miami Dolphins

I was hoping these two awful teams would be winless so I could pick this game, and the stars aligned to make it happen. Can we go 2-for-2 and end this game in a tie?

Special Report: NBA vs. China

Many thanks to Danny Schmitz for providing that wonderful report on how the NBA is...bowing to China for money? I'm not sure, but Danny has agreed to provide more NBA updates this season so keep your ears peeled!

MLB playoffs/Gabe Kapler

Go Astros and Cardinals so I can sound like a genius (also so I don't have to watch the Yankees or Nationals in the World Series). Also it's super weird that the owner was so involved in the Gabe Kapler decision, right? Right?

Flyers Update

I am so glad The Captain is back, youse guyses. The Flyers Updates are always so fun - keep bringing the energy, good sir!

And that's that, friends! I'm off to do some yoga and buy things I only kinda need. Until next time, don't do anything I wouldn't do!

Crap open a cold one!
