The Reaction We All Want
Going back to work has been really strange for me. I wrote about that here for Buzzfeed last week. I come home around 7-9pm each night, which, I know, is normal for most of us. But for me, having been around SO much… it’s a whole different deal. I’m dog tired. I’m overwhelmed. Life has [...]

Live Action Toy Story is AMAZING
Sometimes, you find things in the least of likely places… I was looking for a quote from Toy Story on Saturday night. I wanted a video clip of it so I could reply with a 2013 sensibility, you know, using video clips instead of actually talking or typing written words or. Maybe it’s a guy [...]

Baby Rides Roomba
So, here’s a question: IS EVERYTHING CUTER WHEN YOU PUT A BABY ON IT? It’s a rhetorical question, we know, but seriously… Are things (usually) way cuter when you throw an infant or munchkin into the mix? Washing the dog? Just add baby. Doing your taxes? Just add baby. Redoing the roof shingles? Add a [...]

Thanksgiving Theme Song
Remember when Rebecca Black came out with “Friday” and it was largely considered the worst song to appear on YouTube? Well, I guess we didn’t learn the first time. The same brilliant minds have created a new video and this one is called, “It’s Thanksgiving.” Shocker: IT’S ABOUT THANKSGIVING. And watch the video all the [...]

Every year the evolution of Halloween costumes seems to go away from the upright-walking hominids we have become and drifts toward regression. In a sentence: WE ARE GETTING WEIRDER, PEOPLE. So, I felt it would be a “good” idea to highlight the strangest Halloween costumes you can now buy online and drive the point home [...]

Dad of the Year: Train in Space!
There are certain dads I aspire to be like… Cliff Huxtable, Andy Taylor, Mork from Ork… you know. But this guy is the real deal. I posted this video last night on our Facebook page but it needs its own altar on our blog. Here’s a dad who gives his son the Heavens and the [...]

My Childhood is Ruined: Mr. Wizard
I often reminisce about old TV programs and wonder if I should go digging them up online. That’s the beauty (and horror) of this mile-wide and inch deep place. There were so many great children’s shows that made me the man I am today. One such show, a favorite of mine, was Mr. Wizard’s World. [...]

Best Baby Video on YouTube Right Now
People often ask… What’s it like being a dad? What are the best parts of fatherhood? Do you have any redeeming qualities whatsoever? The answer to all of those questions is inevitably, “42.” But seriously, being a father can’t be summed up in a status update, a tweet or a blog post. Words can’t bear [...]

A Father’s Uniform
I’m not a huge fan of dads being lionized or transformed into mythical creatures who can do no wrong. Similarly, I despise dads being called dumb, especially before they’re even allowed to make fools of themselves. It bums me out. But now, I think, I’ve found the perfect uniform for dads… and moms. Forget superhero [...]

Another Dad of the Year!
There are a lot of great qualities that one could say define the virtues of great fatherhood. Building stuff that could thrill and possibly maim your child, well, you win, sir. Let’s watch. Not every dad has the gonads to pull off this kind of thing. Or the tools. But this guy is a pro [...]
