FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFrooloobooboo. Who came up with “selling like hotcakes?” And what exactly are hotcakes? Are we talking about pancakes here? Like a pancake breakfast? Like a Saturday morning pancake breakfast at the high school gym? I realize I could look this up, but you’re cuter. Well I’ve got some thoughts on this. (shocker, I know.) Why […]

FRRRRRRRRRRRRi d a e i y e e h a. ! . Who even WROTE The Happy Birthday song? I guess I could look this up, but I prefer to be annoyed and not. This is the thing. That’s a hard song to sing. And who has the loaded responsibility of delivering and/or performing this […]
