Stu’s Weekly Rant – Sex

This is what’s wrong with the world today… sex. Yeah, I said it. SEX! I know as a species we need to have sex in order to keep the human race going (sometimes I don’t think this is a good thing), but sex often gets in the way of how we interact with others and [...]

Stu’s Weekly Rant – People Who Don’t Own Pets

This is what’s wrong with the world today… people who don’t own pets. I have never understood why people don’t own pets. Pets can provide companionship, protection, and instill a sense of responsibility as there is a lot that can go into a pet. I myself own 3 cats and a dog. A lot of [...]

Stu’s Weekly Rant – GRCC Football

This is what’s wrong with the world today… the ending of Grand Rapids Community College football.   Sure, I really wasn’t even sure that GRCC had a football team until a year ago.  I guess I just never thought a Community College would even have a team, but they did!  GRCC’s team apparently had been around 80 [...]

Stu’s Weekly Rant – New Year’s Resolutions

This is what’s wrong with the world today…resolutions. It is that time of year where people make their New Year’s Resolutions to make things better for themselves. Standard ones are things like losing weight, saving more money, drinking less alcohol, etc. Nice enough, I guess, but how about stop being a selfish prig?! How about [...]

Stu’s Weekly Rant – Christmas

This is what’s wrong with the world today…Christmas. It is that time of year where we are supposed to be happy and joyful and thankful for all we have. Give blessings and all that. People complain we are in a state of being because we have forgotten the true reason for the season. That we [...]

Stu’s Weekly Rant – Rejection

This is what’s wrong with the world today: rejection. We all feel it every day. We get rejected in all various aspects of our lives: The girl doesn’t accept our advances at the bar; Our first choice college tells us to suck it; Midgets throwing up 3-pointers against Shaq never win. Never any fun is [...]

Stu’s Weekly Rant – Old Men

So this is what’s wrong with the world today: Old men. Yeah, these old men seemingly run the world and do what they want when they want. They make decisions that are arbitrary and often don’t make much sense. Many of us are not old men, so we don’t understand what they are talking about. Take this [...]
