PUT IT ALL ON RED

Just a Thought: Harmonizing

by Jordy Greenblatt

I like to sing along with music while I’m driving. It’s easy to tell which songs I listen to a lot because I always harmonize with the chorus. Also, it’s easy to tell if I don’t listen to a song much because I’ll still try to harmonize but it sounds like a cat being gutted with a rusty machete.

Just a Thought: Frozen Yogurt

by Jordy Greenblatt

I bought some frozen yogurt a few days ago and left it in the fridge long enough that it completely melted. I checked it today and it’s naturally congealed back into yogurt. In a way it’s a beautiful metaphor for the circle of life but in another way it’s a disgusting reminder that I have to clean out my fridge more often.

Just a Thought: Signals

by Jordy Greenblatt

I wish there were a universal sign for, “I know you and I like you just fine but even though we’re walking in the same direction I don’t want to talk to you because I’m really liking the song I’m listening to so please don’t take it personally.” Maybe you could put one hand on your heart and then simultaneously point to your headphones and the other person.

Just a Thought: Demographics

by Jordy Greenblatt

I saw a pickup truck with a Georgia license plate, a US Marine Corps insignia in the window, and an Obama/Biden bumper sticker. Analyze that, Nate Silver!

Just a Thought: Forbes List

by Jordy Greenblatt

I think I’m an impressive person, but not one of the most impressive people. I’d never make the Forbes “30 Under 30” list but at least I can say I’m above average. I’m pretty confident I’d have a spot if there were a “3.5 Billion Under 3.5 Billion” list. Unless they considered dinosaurs; I can’t compete with that.

Just a Thought: Happy Holidays

by Jordy Greenblatt

People think that I say “happy holidays” because I’m Jewish or because I’m politically correct. The truth is just that I’m forgetful and I don’t use a calendar so it’s a good panacea.

Just a Thought: Bed Size

by Jordy Greenblatt

I wish king size beds were the same as queen size. It’s not because of the gender implications; I just feel bad that the king and queen didn’t sleep in the same bed. I guess the Beatles were right that money can’t buy you love.

Just a Thought: College Football

by Jordy Greenblatt

Today UCLA beat USC but Yale lost to Harvard. This would be a real roller coaster of emotion if I gave even a zillionth of a shit about college football or school spirit.

Just a Thought: Getting Out the Vote

by Jordy Greenblatt

Someone needs to make a big red, white, and blue sticker that says, “I voted against all your candidates. Now you know not to bother me next election.”

Just a Thought: Schadenfreude

by Jordy Greenblatt

“Schadenfreude” is a great word because I can derive it just from watching people trying to pronounce it.
