Let’s Talk About Kimye for a Second

Posted on 04. Jun, 2013 by Remy Carreiro in category of Opinions, Quirked, Remy Carreiro

I am still yet to figure out why Kanye West would choose to plant his fertile seed in Kim Kardashian's soil. After all, the man has a song, “Gold Digger,” that pretty much curses any and all woman like her.

The reality is Kanye is a twisted (albeit interesting) guy, and we may never know exactly what he was thinking when he anchored himself to her for the rest of his life. There is, however, one thing we do know: the gender of his baby. Much like Beyonce and Jay-Z, Kanye and Kim are having themselves a baby girl.Read More »

Five Things I Probably Shouldn't Have Grilled On Memorial Day

Posted on 03. Jun, 2013 by Remy Carreiro in category of Opinions, Quirked, Remy Carreiro

Sometimes I fall into a sort of trance when I am grilling. I call it “grill fever.” It takes just the right temperature in the air, and just the right amount of booze coursing through my system, but once it hits, forget about it—I am gone.Read More »

Wow, Microsoft. You really dropped the ball on this one. People like me, who have been avid Xbox fans since its arrival on the scene, cannot help but feel like Microsoft just flipped us all the bird with the announcement and details of its newest “gaming” system, Xbox One. Why is the word “gaming” in quotations? Because that is pretty much the only thing the new system doesn't seem to focus on. Please allow me a moment to explain all of Microsoft's missteps.

Amanda Bynes vs. Rihanna: Round One

No, neither of them sprouted wings; we just liked the picture.

Okay, as bad as it seems, I love me a good “teen idol” downward spiral. I know that is mean and wrong. Yes, it’s awful, but the way I see it, if you sign up for a life like that, than you sign up for all that goes along with it. Don't ache to be famous and then complain about the attention.

With that said, one of the unfortunate side effects of fame is that it doesn’t just leave you alone if you’re having a hard time. If anything, it gets worse.Read More »

Five “Celebrities” Who Would Probably Date Me

Posted on 31. May, 2013 by Remy Carreiro in category of Opinions, Quirked, Remy Carreiro

That title, by the way, is better than my original choice. “Five Celebrities Who Would Probably Bang Me” just sounds too messed up, even for me.

Please note the floating quotations around the word “celebrity” here. I am using that word in the loosest sense, and that statement works on two levels. And no, this is not an article that allows me to brag. If anything, after writing this, I want to take an hour-long shower and cry myself to sleep, but no amount of scrubbing can clean my imagination after this.

Why Reese Witherspoon Yelling “Do You Know Who I Am” Is The Funniest Thing Ever

Posted on 18. May, 2013 by Remy Carreiro in category of Opinions, Quirked, Remy Carreiro

I know you all know the story. Reese Witherspoon's husband, Jim Toth, was recently pulled over on suspicion of drunk driving. Reese, who was also in the car at the time, got out of the car and started accosting the police. The police (and her husband) warned her repeatedly not to do this, but she just seemed to be getting more and more riled up. It culminated with the frenzied (and I say frenzied in the leanest sense of the word) Witherspoon getting arrested, and yelling something out that you really only thought people said in movies:

The Social Media Blitzkrieg

What happened to Facebook?
What happened to Facebook?

I can't be the only person who has noticed that Facebook is grasping at straws right now, right? They have gone through three major redesigns in as many years, and yet each time they seem to try to implement something new, it scares some of us off. Read More »

When Did Breakfast Become Dessert?

Posted on 15. May, 2013 by Remy Carreiro in category of Opinions, Quirked, Remy Carreiro
Hey, it’s a valid question.
Hey, it’s a valid question.

I love food that is bad for me. I really do. I love it so much, I am openly admitting it on a public forum. But I also know when to separate my fatty food from my regular food, and even I cannot help but notice what has happened to breakfast over the last decade. Gone is the meal of ham and eggs, replaced by something that looks like it was spewed out of a child's brain, like cinnamon cream cheese stuffed pancakes with chocolate icing. Pop-Tarts have turned into s'mores. I know it seems silly to ask, but what the hell happened to breakfast?Read More »

When Did MTV Become the Devil?

Next time someone asks you where the music went, tell them this.

Over the last few weeks, I’ve speculated quite a bit about MTV. My pieces regarding that channel fall on both sides of the spectrum. One my site, I wrote about how MTV took advantage of a special needs kids for their own gain, and that kid died.Read More »

Yoga Pants Are Evil

Every time you wear them, a kitten dies.
Every time you wear them, a kitten dies.

I say it is time we ban yoga pants for the betterment of the world.

Yep. I’m going there.

I don’t care how happy you are when you wear them. Outside the obvious level of comfort they provide their wearer, they are bad news. Yoga pants are the only article of clothing that leave nothing—literally nothing—to the imagination. Yoga pants make it incredibly difficult for men who are trying not to be pigs (yes, we’re out there) to keep our minds in that safe, PG place.Read More »
