"One day, for no particular reason, I decided to write a little blog."
-ATLANTA Famous blogger Cgallo, author of Galloblog, is suing her boyfriend for ruining her ability to write long, rambling blog posts about singleness and casual dating. “For over 18 months, my god-awful dating life fueled a multitude of posts that appealed to a niche group of angsty singles,” Cgallo stated in a press release blasted […]
A big question that seems to be tumbling around in the minds of many Christian comedy fangirls is – Are Trey Kennedy and John Crist related? This is a great question that deserves careful consideration. My first pass at this question was to analyze the last names of the two persons in question. John Crist’s […]
When I was in high school, people were always asking me “Where are you going to go to college?” Once in college, they asked “What’s your major? How are you going to use that?” Once in grad school, it was “When are you going to graduate?” Once graduated, people became bored with my career trajectory […]
This post will address one of the most important science-related concepts I think I’ve ever grasped: No evidence is not the same as evidence against. “Whatever do you mean, Dr. Galloswag?!” exclaims you.

Many people don’t know this, but almost all PhDs get all their tuition waived and also receive a stipend. A stipend is – according to the googlez – according to C Galloz- But who am I to bicker over definitions? The point is, I didn’t go into debt and I’m very happy that […]
You’ve heard of fair-weather friends- those friends who are only with you in the good times. The friends who dip out when times get rough. They’re only by your side when the sun is shining brightly and you are paying for their Chipotle. I must admit, howevers, that I haven’t had much experience with fair […]
I used to completely ignore all advertisements, until targeted ads became a thing. Now I’m not seeing an ad because of random chance, but because some marketing algorithm (or nefarious robot??) specifically targeted me ..because of my own browser activities, stated interests, etc. Being the natural narcissist that I am, the new targeting strategies have […]
