Twitter in Focus: Channing Tatum

by tonyd on February 7, 2018 at 12:01 am

Hey Bros!

Welcome to Twitter in Focus where media comes to die!  Today’s contestant is Channing Tatum!  Star of stage and screen.  Let’s see what he’s tweeting.

@ChanningTatum

November 7th:  “Had the pleasure of debuting War Dog: A Soldier’s Best Friend last night in LA. Honored to help tell this story. – Monday on ”

Look at this.  Livin’ the life, this guy.

November 13th:  “War Dog: A Soldier’s Best Friend is out today on . So grateful to share these veteran’s incredible story with y’all. Thanks to all the brave soldiers who serve our country, both human and K-9. ”

Six day premiere.  Man, that was long.

November 20th:  “Yeti or not, here we come. Can’t wait for you to meet Migo in ! In theaters September 28, 2018.”

Ouch.  I wonder how much truckloads of money they gave him for this.  I’m guessing six.

December 4th:  “This creature is 1 more year beautiful. The transformation she invoked this year has been something they only write about in books of fairytale & magic. Your strength & grace ever evolving. You make everything around you grow. So grateful for your lessons. Happy life day my love.”

He does not tweet often, but realistically if you were living his life, would you?

December 11th:  “Alabamians – please get out and vote this Tuesday Dec 12th in the special Senate election for . Watch & share this video w/ local Alabamians & legendary civil rights leader : ”

Once a week.  Disciplined tweets.  How famous do you have to be to never tweet again, I wonder.

December 18th:  “Attention all hard workers and shit stirrers: is assembling a group of talented and outgoing ambassadors for 2018. Candidates should be 21+, social with a wide array of interests… ”

Ambassadors to…?

13 hours ago:  “Aaaa… this dream catcher is straight up what actual dreams are made of. ”

Nice pic.

Okay, let’s rate Tatum’s tweets.  Um, not much behind the scenes.  Kind of phoning it in, not that I blame him.  I mean, seriously, like he needs to promote on Twitter.  I give Channing a 4 for Insanity, a 3 for Mustness and a 5 for Style.  That’s an overall score of 4.  Meh.  At least he’s not bombarding you with tweets.  Why not follow?

And if you have a suggestion for TIF, email me here.

If your birthday is this week:  Your birthday party is canceled after more opposite research comes out about you.

Aries:  Your imaginary friend comes back to sleep on your couch for two weeks.

Taurus:  You will be the victim of a drive-by meme.

Gemini:  The stars say, put on some pants or close your curtains or shave your genitals.

Lemini:  You’ll quite Facebook and realize you have no actual friends.

Cancer:  It will turn out that lemonade stand you visited is part of a Ponzi scheme.

Leo:  You’ll spot Mayor McCheese at a Wendy’s and realize he’s a cannibal.

Virgo:  This week, you’ll forget what you were supposed to be offended by on Twitter.

Libra:  You’ll get really upset at something you saw on Reddit that you’ll write a 15 paragraph denunciation, but not actually read the link.

Scorpio:  The door man punches your card at the sex dungeon for the 20th time, which means you get to give him a blow job for free.

Sagittarius:  Turns out, that “body” in your attic was just a dufflebag, so you killed all those witnesses for nothing.

Capricorn:  The girl scouts threaten to break your legs if you don’t come up with the money for the thin mints you ordered, so apparently they do have badges for everything.

Aquarius:  Your doctor will recommend a regime of Sour Patch Kids and video games, which is when you’ll realize he’s 12.

Pisces:  Your prediction of the Super Bowl: Eagles 10, Patriots 9, is close, but is off a slight amount of numbers.

Fat Guy Eats: Sage Diner

by tonyd on February 3, 2018 at 12:58 am

Restaurant:  Sage Diner

Address: 1170 Route 73 Mount Laurel, NJ 08054

Food:  diner food

Price:  A Little Above Average

Portions:  Average

Taste:  Good

Service:  Good

Atmosphere:  diner

Sage Diner is one of many diners you’ll come across in South Jersey, better than most, but not the best, Sage has an old school look about it.  In the area of Rt. 73 and Mt. Laurel, you’ll be hard pressed to find a better diner.  It’s pretty close to the 295/NJ Turnpike intersection, so if you’re doing some traveling, note this as a spot to stop.

The menu?  The standards.  Breakfast non-stop, of course.  Sage also has a decent selection of what look like yummy pastries.  Tonight, I opted for the Gyro and fries platter.  It came with soup and I got a side salad with it.  As I said to the waitress when I ordered, “I need food.  I don’t think I’ve ever been this hungry before.”  I also got an iced tea.  Small glass, but free refills.  I had a hot tea as well and paid for my friend’s coffee.  All in all about $25.  A little high, but tasty.    Sage diner is not the kind of place you’ll rave about, but the food is decent and the waitress let us sit there and talk politics for a couple of hours while refilling our drinks.

I give Sage Diner 7 out of 10 keggers.
