Where Am I?
Welcome to the Unfiltered Space - not so USA but at the same time, yeah. Hopefully, the more conservative of you aren’t scared.
The truth…the truth is this:
Life is messy, complicated, and not always pretty. It’s a party some days and a nightmare others, ain't it? And sometimes, you find yourself as the very life of that party (duh, it’s your life) and other days you are living the actual nightmare (another duh moment, for those of you keeping count) - but that's what makes it so damn interesting.
At "I, Author Unknown" prepared to experience a brutally honest and unapologetic platform for sharing the real, raw experiences that make us, at the very least, human. This is my safe, anonymous space where you can dive deep into the not-so-cool moments, the awkward situations, and the tougher realities that more often than not cause concern for parent and keep therapists up at night. This is where the secrets that I kept hidden from the world will come to life and where you can bury your secrets and possibly realize what I did long ago:
You are not alone. Others have suffered as you do. Others have walked the less trotten and soul sucking rotten paths of headache and heartbreak - and survived. I gues this is as good a place as any to say SUBSCRIBE TO SURVIVE - or find solace in the moments that you are feeling weak.
Okay, so…What’s Next?
Alright, PAY ATTENTION, because I'm about to lay down some straight-talking directions that even Siri couldn't screw up. And be warned, I don't have much patience for those that prefer sugar-coating shit or playing by the rules. Nah, if you want boring then you are on the wrong blog - this is my little corner of the internet and I serve up a different platter of no neutral middle of the road nonsense wisdom on silver platters here.
I'm going straight for the jugular, calling it like I see it. Wanna walk in my shoe? Well, reading the dark humor and confrontational weird shit is a good way to start. So start there. So go forth and read a piece or three - and welcome to a masterclass in the kind of transgressive non fiction (and sordid fiction) that'll leave you equal parts captivated and shocked - that’s the very intent anyway.
So what are you waiting for? Go get to it, already! Dive into those posts, soak up that signature BUBBA flavor, and come back ready to dive deeper into this twisted, tangled journey of an internet introduction. I'll be waiting, ready to guide you through the chaos upon your return - right here. Just keep those eyes peeled and those ears open - you never know what kind of curveball I might throw your way.
WELCOME BACK - did you follow directions?
Well, I sure hope so because that makes everything a little easier. Regardless of what you read you probably noticed a few things. For starters, it was probably great. Thank you. I really pride myself on selling shit to the cow farmers of the dot com era. And there is plenty to go around. But seriously, I hope you noticed that I inject a little fun and feedback oppertunities into each of the posts on my page - this is by design and I must say its a genius design (patting myself on the back).
The concept is easy. You have found a home friend, a place that serves up the best of tall tales and troubling tribulations - my life stories and feelings and thoughts - regardless of their ratings (which would rarely be below R) or the harsh criticism of would be critics that have no audience here. And that's exactly what you're gonna find here - a safe space to unleash your demons, to share your sordid stories, to participate in the madness.
And that's why I said you’ve found a home. This space can truly be your own because it invites your active participation. I encourage all my readers to engage with the stories, not just read them for entertainment or advice. The real brilliance here is in the seamless integration of fun and feedback opportunities into each post. Instead of relying on mundane "space breaks," I use creative literary devices to keep you intrigued and on your toes..
So share your sad story or have your sordid say into your thoughts and your experiences as you journey through mine. This space is a safe space where we all get to be anonymous and we all get to release our demons - if you leave carrying baggage, then you missed the entire point of subscribing anyway.
Why subscribe?
Why Subscribe? Hell, why not, I say! It’s FREE!
Look, I know this little corner of the internet I've carved out ain't for the sacred heart of the do gooders covenant or for the alter boys that weren’t “touched”, if you are catching my drift. If you're looking for some sanitized, feel-good crap, you best keep on moving on and learn to search the internet for Christ’s sake. But if you're the kind of twisted guy or gal that craves the raw, unfiltered truth - then subscribe right here and right now (ofcourse, that also means you didn’t follow directions earlier, but that’s okay - we live and we learn).
Because, let's face it, there are worse ways to spend those final 15 minutes hiding in the bathroom before the 5 o'clock quitting stroke. You could be huddling outside with the smokers - taking another unpaid mini break which explains why they aren't getting shit done, but then you'd smell like a dirty old ashtray, and honestly, at least the the smells adhering to you in the bathroom are much more predictable.
Need another reason, how about because you're tired of the same old, same old. Because you crave something real, something raw, something that'll make you squirm in all the best ways. The demons are waiting, the stories are begging to be told. All you gotta do is take the plunge. Trust me, it'll be one hell of a ride.
FUN FACT: THE AVERAGE NEWLY OPENED SMALL BUSINESS WILL SPEND BETWEEN $50,000 AND $500,000 THEIR FIRST YEAR IN BUSINESS.
And we wonder why so many small business don't see a second year.

Be part of a community of people who share in your interests - be they the more twisted sordid tales or the sexuality columns that can finally replace your desire for Playboy reading - in it’s own way, that is. Again, I can’t stress it enough - participate in the comments section, take the polls, and leave a bit of you behind - generations of dot com dwellers some time in the future that we won’t survive to see may thank you for it or they may just laugh at our retro way of life.
What’s Left?
Oh there is always plenty left to say and to do - we just get bored as human I suppose. So if you get bored - be on the lookout for that founding member paid subscription and help a kid that doesn’t tend to get out much have a much easier time staying at home.
