Just because you would die of exhaustion walking to your local 7-11 to get your daily gallon of sugar water without the aid of your mums mobility scooter doesn't mean us actual human beings are living in neolithic environments.

Own up, who has been wiping used hamburger wrappers on their testicles? You have no-one to blame but yourselves.

I wish we could come up with a cure for idiots who can't tell the difference between humourous comments and serious ones.

I don't think the FDA holds much sway in the UK where the research is being done.

someone upvote this for hilarity :-) (and for the pendants - it's not wrong, but unless you're in an escher drawing you've got to go back uphill some day)
