Perspectives

There was a competitive game

Where everyone’s setup’s the same.

The winners opined

“This game’s well-designed”

But the loser opined, “No, it’s lame.”

They’re Selling My Childhood, And I’m All For It

I used to be excited

When new video games released

So I could see new features

And how the quality increased.

Now I watch the new releases

And I’m on the lookout for

The rereleases of the games

Made in 2004.

Technology Peaked At The CD Rom

If a company offered a product

That did not require ongoing billing

And was free from both ads and AI

That company would make a killing

And yet we get apps for our parking,

Our banking, our clothes, our TVs

And sure, they sell our lives to China

But at least the law makes them say “please”.

They Always Said He Was Watching…

So I got a notification

That says God is following my blog…

I guess I’m no longer an atheist

And perhaps I should learn how to jog?

Smoothies

Whenever I start hating humans

I remember that someone created

A cup that spins knives in the bottom

That cut food as its electrically gyrated

And it makes a smooth mixture of flavors

From fruits, sugar, protein, et cetera.

Sure, some people still put veggies in

But it still makes you feel better, huh?

When You Have A Questionable Job And Media-Literate Coworkers

Today I went back to work

And I had an amazing day

That was absolutely fantastic

In every single way!

I got paid well and my colleagues

Are fine, upstanding folks

And I’m sharing this with you

So I don’t get fired for writing jokes.

Portmanteau-tally Wonderful!

My wife is ultradorable

And superfect as well.

I think she’s megawesome

And my only fear is she’ll

Come home with a horse one day

That she was drunkenjoying

Because, although she’s gigamazing,

She can be equestriannoying.

Legitimate Question For The Floridians (Sending Love From Washington State)

So in the warm parts of the world

Where the snow never falls in December

Do they still play the same Christmas carols

Or some songs Northerners don’t remember

Like “I want a gator for Christmas”

Or “Chestnuts roasting in a forest fire”

Or my particular favorite:

“There’s no snow to shovel when I retire”?

*#%^ing Algorithms…

A long time ago

When iPods were new

There was a cool button

And what it would do

Is shuffle your music

So your tunes would play

In a randomized order

And people said “Hey

“This feature is awesome

“But it doesn’t quite do

“What the ‘shuffle’ descriptor

“Implies you want to.”

Now twenty years later

A CEO said

“Nah, it’s still good enough”

And then went off to bed.

Guess What Part Of The Movie I Wrote This During?

What if we had a recognizable person

Talk over some muzak

About a mega corporation

About which they’re unenthusiastic

And we’ll have an inoffensive joke

Where a dad does something silly?

That’ll make people desire

To pay us willy-nilly!
