No, I Will Not Peel My String Cheese Before I Eat It

No, I Will Not Peel My String Cheese Before I Eat It

Good Lord am I in a rush! I’ve got so much to do! Got to stop by Lowe’s, pick up some mulch for the yard, get to the post office before they close, scream at the sun, take out the trash. I simply do not have time to peel this string cheese!


Life is a struggle, 'cept when I'm mulchin!

My coworkers always comment ‘Jesus Vince, just peel the damn thing, you’re upsetting me’ or ‘Come on, my son is here, please stop’ or ‘MY EYES MY GOD YOUR FINGERS ARE IN MY EYES’. The prima donnas! I just think they need to open their mind up to different ways of eating.

The stresses and tribulations of modern life really get to a guy. Not enough hours in the day. Why add the burden of peeling this cheese before I take a big ol bite out of the whole thing? Heck, maybe I’ll take a bite out of the side! Sometimes, when I see my reflection, I don’t recognize the person in the mirror. Is God dead? How am I?

I guess I’m just the type of guy to question the norm. We do a lot of strange stuff in the course of everyday life. Personally, I don’t tip. I think that if we want to move to the far superior European system of quality service we have to stop encouraging these antiquated practices. Also, why doesn’t anyone acknowledge the fact that every dog in the world is constantly chanting my name in a ritual that is surely intended to invoke the wrath of the Dark One to afflict my mortal coil? I mean, we all can hear it, right? Why not put a stop to it! Before it’s too late!

Whoops! Lost my train of thought there.

Mondays right?!

I remember when I was a kid, and my dad took me to a minor league hockey game. I saw a guy eating peanuts, taking his sweet time to meticulously shell and eat each one. What a waste! I used to throw toads up in the air and watch them splatter on the ground. I trained my body to digest the whole peanut, shells and all. Lotta nutrition in those shells! Sometimes I feel like a Sioux warrior on the plains, never letting any part of the kill go to waste, except it’s peanuts and not buffalo.

I just don’t see the point in wasting time in frivolities. I would like to meet the person who made string cheese. By what process does it actually string? Why not make it a single block of cheese that is, like us God fearing Americans pledge every morning, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all? I imagine that the inventor of string cheese is largely responsible for our slow economy these past few years. It’s true! I read a study! Lotta wasted time.

I just feel like society’s rules hold us back. They tell us where to be, how to behave, how to eat, how to sleep, how to breathe, how to love, how to die, how to kill, how to end, how to never stop never stop never stop never stop never stop ever never stop I need to stop please God. It’s enough to drive a person up a wall!

At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
