I wholeheartedly agree with Christopher Hitchens! A picnic with lobster and champagne?

I'd rather have a burger, fries, and a beer at a bar!

^ And un-American since I eschew the gods of consumerism, mass culture, and expense solely to brag.

p.s. I also do not require that my burger be made from ground Kobe/Wagu beef and topped with cloth-bound cheddar. But, I will, however, get upset if the beer is watered-down macro-brewed lager-piss!

They may as well, when they're not armed those NRA pussies seem to be afraid of everything.

There is a big storm in the north end of my city but the south end is sunny. The city is only 8 miles long...

My roommate is apparently on a diet, yet yesterday she had ichiban (which for her is two packs), three-piece fish and chips, about a dozen cookies, and an entire pack of smokies, all washed down with about 1.5L of Coke. This was all after 5pm. And she wonders why she can't lose any weight.

I think she got more fish and chips today.

Edit: Oh look, a frozen pizza, too!

Congrats! The best part about living in the US is that you actually have to deal with a bill for all that.

Took a day off of work today so I can go to the doctor. Chest pains, dizzy spells. Either I have high blood pressure or I'm dying.

Hope you are ok!

Ayreonaut · #17 Posted **Apr 16, 2012, 1:46 PM**

Well hopefully it's not high blood pressure. I've heard that's just no fun at all.

rockyi · #18 Posted **Apr 16, 2012, 3:23 PM**

^Me too. My sister had the same symptoms a while ago and now she's on blood pressure medicine.
I had a several dizzy spells last week at work, once while I was on the forklift. Luckily I didn't pass out and drive off the ramp. Scary.

rockyi · #19 Posted **Apr 16, 2012, 8:11 PM**

Well I'm back from the doctor and everything seems to be OK, perhaps way too much caffeine? At least it's not my heart or blood pressure. All I accomplished today was getting Dr. Wang to reprimand me for not coming in more. Haven't paid him a visit since 2008 and haven't had a full physical since....errrr.......I'm guessing a few of you weren't even born when I had my last full physical, sooooo in the next few weeks I'll be getting blood work, a colonoscopy (goddamnit) and a full, after 50 checkup.....YAY!

Glad it was good news rock. I know it's hard to put up with those full exams, but it's gotta be done after 50. Same with the colonoscopy (don't worry they knock ya out for that one - nice nap). Now if we could only get you to see the shrink............
