Boston and UMass sports, lefty politics, dumb humor. The manifestation of my Freudian id.






Like all men, I’ve had imaginary beef with this one dad at little league for three seasons now. Our kids are on different teams, we’ve never spoken, but he’s your typical washed up baseball dad, wears his oakleys turned around on his head, constantly strutting back and forth anxiously in front of the bleachers (but only when the moms are watching). Well my wife’s been telling me about this guy who always shows up to burn boot camp (basically a girl power rah rah club with some exercises thrown in) in his big jacked up truck, hops out in his sleeveless shirt so everyone can see his sleeve tats and black aluminum KIA memorial vet bracelet. He’s always the only guy in a sea of like 100 suburban spandex women. Not a horrible approach, except he’s married with multiple kids and his wife does not attend. My wife has a very sensitive cringe radar and says it’s borderline unbearable when dawg is like grunting doing exercise ball curls around mid-30s moms of 4. Well last week mid-game she points and says “that’s him!!!” And what do you know, we both have unspoken beef with the same dude. Don’t ever let them tell you there’s no such thing as soulmates.

Dating expert says your social life shrinks fast after your mid-20s “The biggest thing to keep in mind is that as you get older, you’re gonna experience what’s called social circle degradation. Your group of friends who you go out with in New York or LA, whatever, some of them are gonna move out of the city, some of them are gonna get cuffed, locked down, not go out as much, some of them are gonna get married, etc” “As you approach your late 20s and early 30s, your social circle is gonna look very different at 26 than it will at 29. That may sound far off, but these are like two-year increments. In two years from now, your social circle is likely gonna be smaller than it is right now as people start getting into relationships, getting more serious, and moving out of the city”





i think my mid level new england cities list (note: all the immediate boston adjacent ones are “metro boston” and the state of CT is basically just NYC suburbs to me) now goes 1) portland 2) burlington vt 3) providence (⬆️) 4) portsmouth 5) worcester 6) manchester 7) springfield
