Jerks of the Week: Jan. 7, 2019 Jerks of the Week: 2018 Christmas Commercials I believe we all witnessed a Christmas miracle this year. You may not have recognized it, but I certainly did. Frankly, it was quite obvious to me, but then again, I’m an insane person who rants about Christmas commercials every year…

Jerks of the Week: Dec. 31, 2018 Bonus Jerk of the Year: The Facebook Beggar I’ve met several cool people from running the Web site.

Jerks of the Week: Nov. 5, 2018 Jerk of the Week: Halloween I had high hopes for Halloween when I first moved into my new house eight years ago. When I was single, I hoped that some hot MILF would ring my door bell and say, “Trick-or-treat, sexy” and then abandon her kid and proceed…
