Jerks of the Week: June 20, 2016 JERK OF THE WEEK: Twitter Social Justice Warriors I remember the days when I was very opposed to Twitter. Readers would e-mail me all the time, wondering why I didn’t have a Twitter account. Some of my friends said the same thing to me. My response to everyone…

Jerks of the Week: June 13, 2016 JERK OF THE WEEK: Getting Lost and Poisoned I love football and all, but summer is my favorite season. It’s a time to relax and even write Jerks of the Week outside. Yes, I’m sitting outside and typing the words you’re reading right now. My shirt is off…

Jerks of the Week: June 6, 2016 JERK OF THE WEEK: Sad Mushrooms, Lonely Potatoes and Angry Men I’ve touched on how stupid the minimum wage debate is, but haven’t fully gotten into it. That might be for another time, but this Jerks of the Week column is going to detail why everyone doesn’t deserve…

Jerks of the Week: May 9, 2016 JERK OF THE WEEK: Adventures at Acme I wasn’t sure if I had written this in Jerks of the Week or not prior to checking, but Bottom Dollar shut down about 18 months ago. Though Bottom Dollar was not a great grocery store, it saddened me, as it…

Jerks of the Week: May 2, 2016 JERK OF THE WEEK: The Italian Cafe People complain about having horrible days, but they wouldn’t do so if they knew the arduous life I live. Oh, you got fired from your job? Your cat got run over by a car? A meteor crashed into your house? Boo…

Jerks of the Week: April 25, 2016 JERK OF THE WEEK: Toxic Hell, Revisited The ninth-ever Jerks of the Week entry I created back in 2009 was about three topics: A rude Mexican family at some diner I used to frequent; Little Caesar – a guy I gave this nickname to; not the pizza chain;…
