Rebel posts that don’t fit the mold.
Joe — Sorry so long in getting back to you. I’ve been absolutely swamped these days. I’ve got an ox-cart driver who’s all wound up in this no-fault insurance business, I got a guy who says he got typhus from that crazy bastard out in Jordan who dunks people underwater, …
“Hello?” “Merry Christmas, mom!” “Robert! Oh, thank you, son! I didn’t think you’d have time to call me today.” “No, it’s cool. I’m on my break. Even up here, we get OSHA.” “So you’re still working for that man.” “Yes, mom.” “You haven’t thought about going back to school.” “To …
MERRY CHRISTMAS Yes, the holidays are approaching, the time when we celebrate the birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We wish you all the best of seasons, and hope you will celebrate in a devout and solemn manner, as opposed to the drunken revels of the hated Saxon. …
Darling, I know that you said you didn’t want to see me, or hear from me. But I think this card complies fully with the court’s order of protection, provided I do not hand-deliver it to you. I know it just looks like a cheap 89-cent greeting card manufactured in …
ED “SCUPPER” HELMOND, VICE-PRESIDENT, BAKERSFIELD CHAPTER, SATAN’S SERVANTS M.C.: “Well, I’ll be honest with you, man. We didn’t used to be called Satan’s Servants. Before this, we were the Rough Riders, and before that, back in ’49 when the club was first founded, we were actually called the Rosedale Rollin’ …

It seems sort of obligatory to write these Thanksgiving entries, but that’s no reason not to do it. We need a few more obligations in life. Americans could definitely use a stern father figure to tell us “You’ll do it or you’re in big trouble, mister,” at least when it …
It’s not such a bad life, being a tiki god outside the Tahiti-Fa’aa International Airport in Papeete. Nobody really worships me anymore, but the hepcat money just rolls in. And I get to watch the planes come in. I wonder who’s president in America now. It’s probably not still that …
You wake up one morning and go out on the back porch for a smoke (the wife doesn’t like you smoking indoors, or at all, but most certainly not indoors, not with the kid in the house for sure, never indoors) and there it is, fully formed in your mind: …
Thank you for coming, ladies and gentlemen. As most of you are already aware, my reputation in the Kennedy assassination research community is that of a firebrand, a rabble-rouser, and a source of controversy; to be honest, I wasn’t even expecting to be asked here, let alone as the keynote …
“That darned crazy Jack,” I said, laughing and shaking my head. “I wonder where in the world he can be. He ought to know I’d come in some place like this and wait for him.” “He probably had an accident,” she said. “In fact, I think I read something …
“Grandpa!” “Eh? Who’s this?” “Happy birthday!” “Shriver?” “No, grandpa. It’s me, Kenny. I wanted to wish you a happy birthday!” “Leave me alone.” “Ninety-six years young! How are they treating you at the retirement community?” “It’s a nursing home, you cockeyed son of a bitch. Your rotten bastard father put …
In defining the “perfect crime”, there is an interesting debate between criminologists. The most commonly held interpretation is that a so-called perfect crime is one where the perpetrator is never caught – where he gets away with the murder, robbery, or whatever other nefarious deed, and escapes justice entirely. A …
WAYS I WISH LIFE WAS MORE LIKE GRAND THEFT AUTO V Medical bills capped at $5,000 regardless of the extent of the injury Impossible to gain weight Commercial radio still features good music, DJs worth listening to Ability to get away with even the worst crimes by hiding in a garage …
If you are like me, you have a normal morning pre-work routine that consists of checking various websites and social media, which prepares you for the day of labor by making you incredibly depressed, angry and/or resentful before you even arrive on the job. So why not monetize it? …
