We gave the staff here at MojoFiction an informal poll in an effort to find out why we keep doing these things to ourselves. The only answer we could come up with was some kind of pre-midlife crisis (we’re not 40 yet…). Here was the pole question: Why does MojoFiction keep doing this to himself?... Continue Reading →
Chicago Bears Try to Go 1-1, End Up 2-0 – After Global Protests, Ruling on the Field Stands
If you live in the Chicagoland area, you know that Chicago is known for having two seasons: winter and taxes.

Everything I Needed to Know I Learned From Playing Video Games Until 4 In The Morning and Don’t Try and Tell Me It Wasn’t Worth It Because I Turned Out Perfectly Normal
MojoFiction has a shocking confession to make. We play video games. …Sometimes. Not all the time. Really, we don’t have a problem and we can quit whenever we want. Just let us finish this level first and then we’ll be done. Why are we confessing this marginal sin that only required one Hail Mary and... Continue Reading →

Recently I was tooling around the internet, looking for answers to life, the universe, and everything (because that's what we use the internet for, right?), when I came across the following exchange on the YouTube channel of a whisky reviewer named Ralfy. Okay, so I was looking for answers to life, the universe, and booze... Anyway, Ralfy... Continue Reading →
Starship Troopers Flies Once More Unto The Breach (A RiffTrax Event Review)
Ah, the wild days of youth, back when MojoFiction was a teenager and found himself presented with the weekend choice of either being social and meeting girls or hanging out with our equally girlfriend-less male friends and watching MST3K (If you don't know what that is, too bad, we're not explaining it). Looking back, MST3K seemed to win out... Continue Reading →
A LITTLE DISTRACTION FOR YOUR BUSY WORK DAY!
And now, a mindless waste of time. Yesterday, when we were supposed to be working (but we were goofing off instead), the staff here at MojoFiction ran across some interesting quotes across the webiverse and we thought we would throw them out there in the form of a quiz, to see if you pay attention to...

THE HOUSE OF SILK (a book review)
A Sherlock Holmes Joint We here at MojoFiction have quickly blown through several books lately (that’s about several more than usual), so we’re really proud of ourselves and we thought we’d post an extra book report or two. We've been reading some heady stuff lately in the department of science, philosophy, and history, so this... Continue Reading →

WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE’S STAR WARS (A Book Review)
VERILY, A NEW HOPE This is a real book. Seriously. We here at MojoFiction couldn’t believe it either. Shakespeare AND Star Wars together? Break out the paper bags because we’re hyperventilating from too much excitement due to overexposure to a geek fantasy unlike any other. Sci-fi nuts, historians, and your college English professor together in... Continue Reading →
