Hey, hey, hey Jeremy! What's happening? Keeping busy? Good. I want my work back. Aren't you being a little anal about this? And by little, I mean huge. And by anal, I mean asshole.

My Review of - Women


3 star rating
02/18/2008


I do so love myself. I'm the best. Really. It's true. I never talk back to myself. If I doubt me, I usually make up with me pretty fast. I see eye to eye with me. And I tend to keep it real.

Here's where I leave the beaten path. I do not like the games some women play. You give all of us a bad name with that bullshit. And I know you know what I mean.

So knock it off already. It's boring. And it's obvious. Really obvious. It may not be to some men... but most women know exactly what you're trying to pull and we're disgusted by it.

For every "bridezilla" there is out there, there are 10 perfectly fine gals who wouldn't dream of going into spasms over the wrong kind of cake. Hell, some of us don't even want to get married.

So girls? Keep it real. Behave. Treat your friends and your guy the exact same way. Life will be better. Songs will sound sweeter, food will taste great and everyone can just get along already. Don't bring drama into places it doesn't belong. Save that for role-playing.

People thought this was: Useful (12) Funny (19) Cool (14)

I may need to bring the star level down to two. That would be based on a few yelpettes.

How's it hanging Jerry? May I get my work back yet? You leaking prick.

Reviews, Shemiews. Hours of work? Means nothing.

I Enjoyed Writing about Cemeteries


Here are two for you to read.

Rosehill Cemetery & Mausolium
Category: Funeral Services & Cemeteries Neighborhood: Edgewater

When I was a child it wasn't uncommon to spend an afternoon searching through a cemetery. My mom studied our family genealogy and I remember lots of quality time spent looking for graves. It was an odd feeling when I found one of my middle names on a very old grave somewhere in Texas. Odd, yet cool.

We would even have a picnic in the cemetery. Yep. Egg salad and headstones.

I love Rosehill for many reasons. It's old. It's beautiful. There is a huge civil war section of graves. There's a Jewish side to it. And it makes for a lovely walk any time of year.

Resurrection Cemetary & Mausoleums
Category: Funeral Service & Cemetaries

It's got a ghost. Her name is Resurrection Mary. Many drivers on Archer Avenue have reported encounters with her. This has been going on for over 60 years now.Pretty cool stuff.But don't go looking for her on purpose. I had a friend who did and his car stopped dead right outside the gates. Boo!

Of course I don't have my review of Graceland. Because that colostomy bag named Jeremy won't return it.

Naked - Another review


Another small, or not so small lesson for the kids on Yelp.Naked = good. As much as I adore the frilly stuff? Eventually it's gonna get naked out. Naked with a chance of possible good sex. Or just a wonderful feeling of being natural.

Learn to love your body. Large, medium, small - all good my darlings. All good. To really love yourself is perhaps one of the most freeing things possible. To really allow yourself to be yourself? Nothing better. So take off your clothes. Prance around. Dance around. Enjoy it. Let it be. You were born this way. Think about that.

This was a review I wrote just slightly before I was booted off of yelp.

How ya doin' Jeremy? May I have my work back you cunt?

So are you selling Yelp Jerry?

All the recent purges (or pogroms, as I prefer to call them) suggest you're trying to clean up the playground to make it as "clean" as you can. People are dropping like flies in SF. Curious.

Do you the news media may be interested in it? I sure do.

Now give me back my shit. And we're done. Penis-face.
