So now drinking water is supposed to be good for me? I'm not supposed to drink only coffee? Coffee has water in it. I prefer water with just about ANYTHING in it to water sans serif. Water that pays no attention to my needs is reflexively denied entry to my arid gastrointestinal byways. My tongue just won't let it through, waggling all here and there like "nuh-uh, water!" Lately I've been putting this Airborne crap into my water because it makes it fizzy for about 5 minutes, makes it taste vaguely like a pink grapefruit, and it leaves a chicken-fat-like scum all over my cup. Oh yeah, and it was created by a second grade school teacher. Why do they say that? Why do they hype the fuck out of that dubiously beneficial fact all over the package and website? Am I supposed to trust a school teacher with my health over, say, a health professional? Perhaps -- Josef Mengele was a doctor, after all.
     If I had a point when I started that paragraph, it was going to be that I don't like this whole "drink more water" health plan for the same reasons I don't like the "eat healthy" plan or the "exercize regularly" plan or the "get more than 3 hours sleep a night" plan: It just seems like it could get out of hand. Not only do people seem to be suggesting that I drink more water today, it seems they are recommending that I continue to do so essentially FOREVER. That just seems stupid. And I have to tell you, I think I eliminate most of the water I drink through urination, often within an hour of drinking it. To me this is like taking a pill that falls from your mouth directly down a tube and out of your ass onto the floor. What can the point be? What can the benefit be? Why am I wasting my PRECIOUS PRECIOUS TIME putting this clear liquid in me? Won't my liver, or my kidneys, OR WHATEVER MAKES PEE get out of shape if I coddle it so? What will happen if I drink something poisonous?


Can we all stop pretending, as a society, that Crocs are fit for humans to wear in public? I simply do not understand how people can be so glaringly clueless. I am not exactly a fashion plate, and like many men, I think nothing of buying a pair of sneakers and wearing them until they fall off. But I don't wear fucking traffic cones on my feet and go out for the night like it's no biggie. It's a fucking biggie, people. Has somebody already said that they look like Fischer Price's My First Flip Flop, with enclosed toes and safety straps for retarded children? Because they do. You look like you just stepped in a big steaming pile of Toys 'R' Us.

DISALLOWED FOREVER

"I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you!"
-
"from whence"
-
"...the exception that proves the rule"
-
any use of the question "spit or swallow?"
-
the phrase "drop trou"
-
fake-o reviewer verbs:
"penned" for wrote
"helmed" for directed
"lensed" for whatever
-
"expat"
-
the euphemism
"passed away"
-
pronouncing merci beaucoup as "mercy buckets!"
(see also: "grassy-ass!")



PET PEEVES

"confinscated"
-
trying children "as adults"
-
"drownded"
-
misuse of reflexive pronouns, as when someone says "Please talk to Bob or myself." Come on people now. "Myself" is not just a fancy version of "me"! LEARN IT.
-
tattoos in the Courier font
-
any use of Comic Sans
