Jerks of the Week: March 9, 2020 Jerks of the Week: Car Inspections My wife and both my parents have been trying to convince me to buy a new car for quite some time. “Walt, you have an old car,” my mom said when we were out to dinner one night. “Just buy a new…

Jerks of the Week: March 2, 2020 Jerks of the Week: Star Trek Picard Many of you may not know this, but I’m a big Star Trek fan. It all started when I was 12 years old. It was a rainy, Saturday afternoon, and I was hanging out with my best friend Josh in my…

Jerks of the Week: Feb. 24, 2020 Jerk of the Year: Nephtali Diaz Imagine hating someone so much that you constantly obsess with them and post nonsensical things on their Facebook wall.

Jerks of the Week: Jan. 20, 2020 Jerks of the Week: Millennials and Man Buns I just came back inside from walking my new dog Raven, who has a fear of grown men. I wrote about this in the linked Jerks entry; we think she must have been abused by a male because she growls…

Jerks of the Week: Jan. 13, 2020 Jerks of the Week: Happy New Year, 2020 I can’t believe it’s 2020. Seriously, it’s bizarre. I recall being a student in grade school, writing dates like 3/22/93 on my papers, wondering what the year 2020 would be like. Would I be married? Would I have kids? Would…
