This is a screenshot of a headline. In the game musical chairs players prance around chairs while music is playing. When the music stops prancers have to sit. The prancers who have not found a chair to sit in are removed from the game along with one chair. I suppose, in that vein, the game … Continue reading The Edumacated

Robot Vacuum Worst-Best Sucking Things Up
To avoid all my worst-writing and get straight to the pseudo-review, just scroll down a bit. Otherwise, good luck. This consume-to-survive world/life is gettin' to me, covid n'all. You too, dear worst-reader? I mean. Just the other day, after purchasing another one of them fancy-pants robot vacuum cleaners, after my previous über-expensive robot vacuum cleaner … Continue reading Robot Vacuum Worst-Best Sucking Things Up
While Walking And Dreaming
https://youtu.be/bMzaVD8TsOs Had a heck of time the other morn, dear worst-reader. As usual, I begin one of three walks a day with Beckett, the killer pug, at around eight in the A.M. After that I feed him and let him sleep until a bird stirs him awake around noon and he barks so loud that … Continue reading While Walking And Dreaming
“Heroes”
Came across a list (link below) the other worst-day, dear worst-reader. The only question I had after reviewing the list--yet another Bowie best-of list, like all the others, don't you know--was whether or not I had all the songs--especially since I don't use music subscription services. Turns out I have forty of the fifty and … Continue reading “Heroes”
Pseudo-Review: iPhone 6s > iPhone 11
Why go to 10 (or Xr or 8) when you can go to 11? For that is the worst-question, eh, dear worst-reader? I mean, wouldn't we all go to 11, always skipping the others, if we could? Or is the issue mute? Nomatter. The moment I'd been avoiding for so long by nursing my iPhone … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: iPhone 6s > iPhone 11
Pods, Ears, Tech Mediocre Galore
Pseudo-review of Soundcore earbuds, baby. Consuming to survive, dear worst-reader. How's it going for you? Otherwise, I bought these earbuds a few months back while you-know-who/what online store had a sale. Got them for half-price, too, don't you know. But I suppose I should also give credit where it's due regarding how I bought something … Continue reading Pods, Ears, Tech Mediocre Galore
Pseudo-Review: To Sit Or To Stand
Consumed-to-survive me one of them fancy-pants Ikea electric adjustable desks a few months back, dear worst-reader. And don't you know, it's a pretty half-decent, fairly useable thing--if you need/should stand while worst-writing. Luckily for worst-moi, as you can see in the pic above, the smallest version of the desk fits perfectly into the only remaining … Continue reading Pseudo-Review: To Sit Or To Stand
Please, No More Hair Trimmers And No More Examples Of #Americant Losing Its $hit
Am I on my last hair trimmer, dear worst-reader? At least I hope I'm on my last one. It's a thing I'm going through right now, don't you know, in this--the $hit$how that is consume-to-survive. The idear is the following: Pay a little bit more now in the hopes that--if there is such a thing … Continue reading Please, No More Hair Trimmers And No More Examples Of #Americant Losing Its $hit
E-Bikes And The Ageing Killer Pug
Like me, dear worst-reader, Beckett - the killer pug, is getting old. Fortunately I've still got all my front teeth. Most of his front teeth, on the other hand, except for the fangs, had to be removed last year. I mean, have you ever had a look inside a Pugs mouth? What a mess of … Continue reading E-Bikes And The Ageing Killer Pug
Pseudo-Review- Birkenstock And The Happy Foot
Note on the pics. The Birkenstock shoe (left foot) is still in what I consider to be its break-in period. They're only about ten days old. Note the suede sole footbed insert. The sandal (right foot) is broke-in and is probably four months old. The only issue I'm facing with the sandals is that I've run out … Continue reading Pseudo-Review- Birkenstock And The Happy Foot
No. Seriously. Bought Because Of The Name.
https://youtu.be/lH6DoKaAHz0 Another subversive purchase by my better half. Most of these purchases are regrettable--except for the purses and shoes, of course. When it comes to electronics, though, she slips one in there every once-a-once that is a doozy. This Roomba, iRobot, fancy-pants vacuum cleaner, for instance. After just over two years of use, … Continue reading No. Seriously. Bought Because Of The Name.
How Compulsives Run The Show
We live in a world of Trump-Uglies and the disgust his ilk pro-creates. We live in a world of teeth-less, comb-over dog-fights that are clawless due to cosmetics and ill-fitted matrimony. And even better... We live in a world that is not lead by the merit of one's or the collective's actions. No. Indeed. We … Continue reading How Compulsives Run The Show
That Last Bottle Of Wine Full Of Memories
Xmas Eve dinners are a big deal in worst-writer's house. A few people are invited and some of them actually come. Since the kids are all growed-up this is mostly an adult evening. Either that or the kids are with divorcee parents. Nomatter. To begin the occasion, a bottle of champagne is opened and most drink … Continue reading That Last Bottle Of Wine Full Of Memories
Learning How Good The Crunge Really Is And Other Songs
Potential sub- or alternative title: Oh how pleased I am with current status of (my) audio consumption and still being able to get it on at my age. Yesterday's evening conduit? It began with a glass of Weißburgunder and a few tunes from greatest-band-ever randomly discharged from my home network wifi to my 2015 MacBook … Continue reading Learning How Good The Crunge Really Is And Other Songs
Reading The Footbed
Authoritarian Shoes? Yes. Authoritarians? No...? First. I'm not selling anything. Seriously. Ok. Maybe I'm selling all–things-worst. Yeah. That's good enough. Second. I've always considered two parts of my body to be more important than other parts: teeth and feet. But don't get me wrong. I don't care if teeth are white and shinny. They just … Continue reading Reading The Footbed
From New To Old Or Skipping What’s In-Between
Subtitle 1: E-Book reading. Looks like there's no turning back (for worst-moi). Subtitle 2: A pseudo-review of e-readers. I first started e-reading on a Kindle 2. I loved the design of the Kindle 2, especially the analog page change buttons and the odd but fully functional keyboard that enabled the best note-taking (at the time) … Continue reading From New To Old Or Skipping What’s In-Between
Something Little More Than Site Maintenance Or How AWS Might Be Comparable To GM Of Yore
Freeing myself of the juggernaut of scavenger capitalism that's finally, utterly, taken over tech industry? Indeed. Dear worst-reader. I've been worst-saying it for years. Or at least been worst-saying it since that short stint in the advertisement industry--so many years ago--where I had to explain the #interwebnets to a whole host of numb-nut corporate college … Continue reading Something Little More Than Site Maintenance Or How AWS Might Be Comparable To GM Of Yore
Things Are Moving Along Just Fine In The Land Of The Docile Free To Be Stupid
Something to ease the minds of the dumb-downed as another useless evening presents itself in the wake of my beloved and missed #americant dealing with a grand new-fangled tax scam from president smart for the rich and stupid for the rest of you suckers. Also wondering who the college grads are that set up all … Continue reading Things Are Moving Along Just Fine In The Land Of The Docile Free To Be Stupid
How To Hug Your Abuser, Face Your Poison
What's the one thing that connects all of the recent sex abuse bullshit, dear worst-reader? Ok. Yea. It might be something about stupid white men. (But then there's the few and far between non-white men that seem to do the same thing.) Then there's the issue of power. Yea. That's the ticket, ain't it? Or … Continue reading How To Hug Your Abuser, Face Your Poison
Consume To Survive vs. Amazilla
Update: May the heavens be blessed (if you believe in that sort of thing). To my worst-surprise, my consume-to-survive order that is supposed to help with cleaning my ageing teeth arrived today. Wow. If you can believe the original price posted (Euro299,99) then this was a pretty good deal. Yeah, baby. Haven't been posting much … Continue reading Consume To Survive vs. Amazilla
