Now That’s A Lot Of Shit!

Talkin’ Shit hit a HUGE milestone yesterday.  By days end this quirky little blog of mine topped out at a one day view total of 1289.  I still can’t believe my shit attracted so much attention.  What surprised me even more was the amount of interaction.  There were hundreds of likes and comments not to mention an additional 80 followers and a few award nominations.

At What Cost?

I was just watching TV when a commercial for some depression medication came on.  Towards the end of the commercial they voice over guy lists the possible side effects someone taking this pill could have.  To list just a few you have, nausea, tremors, headaches, anxiety, insomnia, weight gain, constipation, and decreased sex drive.

The Next Bear Grylls

Ever since I was a kid I have felt more comfortable out in the wild than I did in my own home.  I would daydream all the time about being lost in the woods all alone having nothing but a knife and the will to survive.  I still dream about this today.   For whatever reason I can just feel it in my bones that I would not only survive, but thrive in the wilderness.  

Blogging Award #2

When I learned of my first blogging award I was kind of skeptical because it didn’t seem like a “legit” award.  It didn’t take me long to figure out I was being an asshole.  I didn’t think it was a real award because it didn’t come from some establishment that rates blogs, if there is even such a thing.

Douche Of The Week 9-3

DOW is supposed a post about people I deemed to be the king or queen of doucheness, and yet somehow I have several people a day asking me to be the DOW.  Sadly enough for them none of the are this weeks pick.  This week I almost feel bad about the person I chose because she is a senior citizen and is probably close to death.

“My Food Stamps Clash With My Coach Wallet”

In recent weeks I have seen a lot of debates on welfare programs.  In my opinion I think we waste too much time debating the programs and not enough time debating the people using said programs.  I like living in a country that offers programs that helps people in need, but I hate seeing people abuse the hell out of them.  

Just Around The Corner

I am coming up on my 2 month (9-8) anniversary for Talkin’ Shit.  It has been a great 2 months and I must say that I have had a lot of fun sharing my rantings with you all.   I have written 54 posts and it amazes me how many views I get on all of them.

To Like, Or Not To Like…

For those of you who actually follow and like this blog, you might have noticed the interruption a few days ago.  It seems there were a few issues that needed to be worked out.  The first was my gravatar.  I guess it was too mature to be on the site so it was reported.  The second was, someone had reported me for liking their blog.  

Chad Ocho-asshole

 

For those of you that don’t follow sports, Chad Johnson (Ochocinco) is a football in the NFL.  Although football may be his profession, being a complete asshole seems to be his true calling.

The Way I Am

When I was an insecure kid growing up in Jersey I took a lot of shit from people.  Whether it was my home, my clothes, or the things I did someone always had something to say about me.  When I was 13 my family moved to a new town where for about a month I was completely miserable.
