Best Public Service Announcement EVER goes to Rescue Dogs Rock NYC for “Dogs don’t cheat. Adopt a Life Partner.” Spoofing the Ashley Madison hack, the ad encourages folks to get a dog (or two!) instead of a cheater. “You’ll find things in your dog that you’ll never find in your ex. Novel behaviors like loyalty, […]
I Need You Like A….?
Today’s Friday Challenge is a riff on yesterday’s UBT topic, the sad sausage lament, “I needed you.” UXworld commented: “I need you” line I couldn’t help but flash on The Honeybees from that episode of Gilligan’s Island: I need you, I need you Like a camel needs a hump Like a city needs a dump […]
Most Psycho Reaction to Being Busted?
In the early days of the blog and holiday Freak of the Week contests, we had a winner with BarristerBelle who described her then-husband’s reaction to being busted for cheating: After D-Days 1-3, XH was desperately pretending to reconcile. Then I saw OW-dingbat-paralegal’s text on his phone after we’d just had dinner with his grandmother. […]
Have a Bitch Cookie
It’s time for another round of Bitch Cookie! For those of you new to CN, part of the lexicon here (introduced by member emeritus Rumblekitty) is “bitch cookie.” A bitch cookie is the reward that jerks demand for doing something they should be doing anyway as a matter of decency. Would your co-parenting fuckwit like extra credit for […]
What Are You Throwing on the Virtual Bonfire?
Today’s Friday post idea comes from Mr. CL, a Texan. As everyone is suffering in Texas (and across large swathes of the US) now from an arctic cold snap, we need ideas on how to stay warm. Time for the virtual bonfire! Huddle together and tell CN what you’d like to get rid of and […]
And the Infidelity Valentine Poetry Contest Winners Are….
Happy Valentine’s Day! Boy, it was hard to choose the winners this year. You guys have some deep reserves of snark and mordant humor. Helping me winnowing out the top haiku and limerick submissions was Mr. CL, who is qualified as a) a chump and b) a guy with a useless MA in comparative literature. […]
It’s Time Again for Infidelity Valentines!
Happy February, chumps! It’s nearly Valentine’s Day, or as people have been known to call it “Single Awareness Day.” If you’re feeling a bit adrift with all the mylar heart balloons and syrupy sentiment out there…. consider snark! Yes, it’s time once again for our Infidelity Valentine’s Day Contest where we remember the less fortunate […]
Gain a Life, Gain Better Health?
Yesterday was CN member SuperDuperChump’s birthday and he made this Friday Challenge request: How has your health improved since gaining a life? I used to be on 4 medications. None now. Still don’t eat right, nor on a regular schedule, but have lost 10lbs. Sleep good at night and am full of energy. I will […]
Fractured Hallmark Holiday Specials
We’re expecting a snow storm here today (WHOOPEE!!!! YEAAAA!!!!), and I’m taking the occasion (JOY!) to snark about the Hallmark Christmas Channel. What does this have to do with chumpdom, Tracy? Oh everything, inner sarcastic voice. Who set the bar for soppy What The Heart Wants romance? Why does every plot line include a woman […]
I’ll Be Seeing You In All the Old Familiar Places
Cheaters aren’t original. Need proof? Read a few bazillion comments here and you’ll see the same tired playbook time after time. Sure, there’s the Stupid Shit they say. But there’s also the recycled date nights, tastes and habits. You’re all just interchangeable bit players in their great narcissist drama. Did he take Schmoopie to the […]
