  • A Brief History: Dice

    The icosahedron is my favourite die! What’s yours? For anyone not on my specific level of nerd, that’s a 20 sided die. At least… I think. All of these names get complicated quickly. Which is why it’s best to lay back, relax and learn what the spots on a die are called!

  • A Brief History: SPAM

    SPAM meat is a miracle of timing, naming conventions and a lot of fans, apparently. Ever wonder what came first, SPAM the meat, or spam the email? The answer will surprise you! (Byline credits to Buzzfeed)

  • A Brief History: The Apple Watch

    The Apple Watch is the most unnecessary necessary piece of technology I own. Do i need it? Not really. Do I really enjoy having one and couldn’t imagine not wearing one? Also yes! How is the current Apple Watch better than the series 1? What sparked this wonderful technologies creation? Settle in, cozy up, and enjoy!

    Merry Christmas! Happy holidays! Whether you celebrate Christmas, Candlenights, or anything other holiday around this time of year, Merry… whatever-you-celebrate! Pour a glass of eggnog, sit by the fire with me, and enjoy.

  • A Brief History: Coffins

    Y’know those creepy boxes that we’ll all get burned in one day? As it turns out… maybe not as creepy as we thought. Except on Halloween, then they still give me the creeps. What’s the difference between a casket and a coffin? Is it normal to build them in your garage?

  • A Brief History: Types Of Coffee

    We’ve covered coffee beans themselves, but we never actually talked about the end result. Sure, a lighter roast will have slightly more caffeine, and a darker roast tends to be more bitter. But now.. .what is a coffee? Is it a latte? Is it a cappuccino? It is a drip coffee? Spoiler alert: it’s all of them!

  • A Brief History: Pencils

    The greatest mystery of our generation: why is the #2 pencil yellow? I know, you’ve probably been pondering this question for a while, and I’m finally here to answer it for you. Make sure you have some water, and snuggle in for the night: it’s time to learn about pencils.
