Epic People Watching – Episode 6

On Tuesday, April 2, 2013 by Dan Pearce · Categories: Epic People Watching, Popular Posts

True story.

Last week I left my debit card at a fine dining establishment. And by dining, I mean Texas Roadhouse. And by fine I mean that their dinner rolls are like crack to me.

Anyway, I didn’t realize my mistake until the next morning when I went to get gas and discovered that I was credit cardless. So, back to the restaurant I begrudgingly went, hoping that I had left it there.

9 Ways Pretty Much All People Suck (At Least Occasionally)

On Monday, April 1, 2013 by Dan Pearce · Categories: Popular Posts, Read, Think, Debate

It’s been a long time since I wrote The Disease Called “Perfection,” and to this day I still find myself thinking sometimes that I suck because the people around me are so much more perfect at the things that cause me constant struggle.

When I was 12 years old, I did one of the hardest things I’ve still ever done to this day.

I swam an entire mile in a lake that wasn’t even 60 degrees.

Pulled from the Truth Box – Week 13: Embarrassing Lies Edition

On Thursday, March 21, 2013 by Dan Pearce · Categories: Popular Posts, Pulled from the Truth Box

Here on Single Dad Laughing, I started what I call “The Truth Box.” I asked you all to anonymously share a difficult secret that you’ve never told anyone. There were only two sections to fill out on the form. “What everyone thinks is true,” and “what actually is true.”

I’ve shared those every week and will continue to do so, but occasionally I’d like to mix in "other" kinds of truths. And so, [...]
