Look, everyone is entitled to their opinions. Obviously. But I’m consistently flabbergasted that the New York Times pays Bret Stephens for his. It’s like paying a toddler to scribble on the walls or flush a cat down the toilet.

The guitar solo from “Shake It Up” by The Cars may not be the best guitar solo of all time, but it is the most fun guitar solo of all time. That’s a fact in the Library of Congress.

Governor Shapiro, Altoona PD, and NYPD are taking a lotttttt of investigative credit considering they just picked up a guy fingered by a McDonald’s patron. Nice feed, WJAC.

New Jersey has some of the best pizza in the country. But not south Jersey. Your pizza is shit. Stop riding the coattails of the rest of the state.

There are few things more awkward than running into someone you know twice in the same trip to the grocery store. All you can do by the second meeting is that lips-pressed-together-while-raising-the-eyebrows thing. That's my specialty.
