A Morning Yawn
Right. My fucking blogger dashboard is in German and I can't figure out how to change it to normal. I don't sprechkizen phlegm clearing. Stupid barbaric peoples. A great thing about my new job is that it fucking blows. You might not understand why that is great, and neither do I. But I was told to look on the bright side. So it's fucking awesome that my new job is a mind numbing suicide promoting labour of futility.What would happen if Zeus and the God's of antiquity came to visit us today? If the God we worship today visited the same day, what would happen? A battle for dominance? I'd bet they'd agree how fucked up we've gotten and leave again. I am looking forward to the new God rolling in and leaving us again. We are a wretched species. And every Diety has known this. This is why they leave and refuse to return.
If a man walks to the store five times a week and rides to the store twice a week. I suppose a better SAT question would be, "What the fuck is dude going to the store so much for?"
People like to pretend like the microcosm they live in makes a difference. The problem is when a group of people share the same microsom. Problems arise. Because one person can make a difference. A group of people can only make stupidity. The difference one person can make is usually to the detriment of the peoples.
My life is a hangover. Thus, the headache I will get in the morning will not phase. Because even though I might see double, it only makes it twice as clear that in a million years we will be born again and I will have to regret another missed opportunity with her. My life is an addiction. Thus, the twitch I will have in a few minutes will not bother. Because even though I might scratch till I bleed, it only makes me want stitches more because then you could rip new wounds on me. My life is a disappointment. Thus, the phone call I will get from my father will not bother. Because even though I will have lived a thousand lives and disoppointed a thousand fathers, I would disappoint one thousand more to satisify you once. My life is closing. Thus, the last breath of air a gasp won't inhale. Because even though I have respired countless times, I would give all but one up if the first gas I inhaled was your breath.

Female ‘fat talk’ socially mandatory, study finds
Kvetching about cellulite may help women forge friendships

Updated: 2 hours, 45 minutes ago
It’s almost inevitable: When women get together, the chatter eventually turns to whose skinny jeans don’t fit anymore and who weighs in heavier on the scale. And participation is socially mandatory, a new study finds.
Researchers call this “fat talk,” a term coined to describe a behavior common in middle school-aged Caucasian females. But the phenomenon seems to occur in older females as well.
“We have found in our research that both male and female college students know the norm of fat talk—that females are supposed to say negative things about their bodies in a group of females engaging in fat talk,” said study co-author Denise Martz of Appalachian State University.

Self-degradation is predictable
In one study, Martz and her colleagues showed 124 male and female college students a scene describing three women engaging in fat talk. The test subjects were then asked to predict how a fourth female would respond to this discussion.
Forty percent of male subjects and 51 percent of female subjects believed that the fourth female would self-degrade her body, in results that will be detailed in the June issue of the journal Body Image: An International Journal of Research.
“Because women feel pressured to follow the fat talk norm, they are more likely to engage in fat talk with other females,” Martz told LiveScience. “Hence, women normalize their own body dissatisfaction with one another.”
“If there are women out there who feel neutrally or even positively about their bodies, I bet we never hear this from them for fear of social sanction and rejection,” she said.
Coping mechanism
As obesity rates in the Unites States climb, more and more females are finding their bodies further from the beauty ideal put forth in the media, and thus more women could be coping through fat talk, researchers hypothesize.
“Females like to support one another and fat talk elicits support,” Martz said. “An example would be one saying, ‘It's like, I'm so fat today,’ and another would respond, ‘No, you are not fat, you look great in those pants.’”
Fat talk also allows females to appear modest, a prized quality in a culture that shuns egotism.
“We tend to dislike arrogance and especially dislike it in women (‘bitches’)”, Martz explained. “Women are perceived as OK if they fat talk and acknowledge that their bodies are not perfect but they are working on it.”

Mysteries of the Sexes Explained
What Scares a Man?
Posted by David Zinczenko
You probably think you know what frightens most men. A long-weekend at the in-laws' place. Antiquing. Running out of beer in the third quarter. But that's just the stuff he'll admit to being afraid of, which, by definition, means they're not his true deep fears. So how can you determine what those are? Easy: They're the ones he'll almost never talk about. But I will.
Let's count down through the Scary Fifteen:
#15 Hair in the drain. The first sign of male pattern baldness.....blah blah blah
people shave their heads all the time. number 2 clipper for me now. K, rocks the razor.
#14 Getting caught noticing another woman. A man's instinctual response to visual stimulation very rarely has anything to do with his current relationship or how he feels about it. But his lizard brain reacts instantly..... blah blah blah
this guy has no idea what he is talking about. getting caught looking at other women is perfect. keeps the atmosphere competitive. and it's pleasant.
#13 Rejection. Doesn't matter whether it happens after a job interview, or at a bar, or on the basketball court.....
rejection kinda stings temporarily if you truly tried to make something work, then in a bit you don't care anymore and everything is fine. rejection is fun if you don't care at all about someone.
#12 Super Nanny
i dont know what this is.
#11 Speedos.
they do it in europe. it's a fuckin junk showcase. yoss.
#10 His dad's death.
wrong.
#9 Her tears
you don't fear them, it is just a nuisance. it must be troublesome for some women to be moved to tears at inappropriate times, like the conclusion of grey's anatomy or the bachelor sitcom crappuh.
#8 Being a lousy lover.
alright let's see what this guy has to say.....
>>>>>Of all the things that men want to happen in bed, pleasing their women ranks near the top of the list, according to a national Men, Love, and Sex survey by Harris Interactive. Men hate to think that women may be bored, unimpressed, or unsatisfied. Maybe it's an ego thing (okay, it is an ego thing), but men do very genuinely care about how much pleasure a woman is having in bed.
not completely true. guys intermitently care about this. you can't be a bullshit lover and expect the sex to be good forever.
>>>>>That's why the faking thing drives men so crazy. To men, feigned pleasure is code for: You're so damn terrible at this, but there there, little fella, I'm gonna make you feel good about your inadequate self. Men want to know what women want, and they want to be successful in delivering it.
it seems to me that a vast majority of times in the vast majority of women you can feel the difference post organism. feel free to comment. sidenote, still make alot of noise because it is good.
#7 Not being a god to his kids.
don't know what this guy is talking about
#6 Living paycheck to paycheck. >>>>>Even though men aren't the only hunters and providers anymore, they still feel a deep evolutionary pull to blah blah blah.
people like to have extra money.
#5 Beautiful women.
not scared, just competition again.
#4 Getting naked
not really.
#3 Tofurky.
again. dont know what this means
#2 Not seeing his kids grow up.
quote K, human larvae? this does not scare a man.
#1 Public humiliation
don't think this is right either
Here is what I think scares a man.
1. wasting your life.
that is all.
2. watching your body decompose over an average 75 year life span sucks too...but this is related to 1. wasting your life
the above was not from men's health magazine, rather a link on aol powered by men's health magazine. fuck's sake, i need to work. concentrate, c. read things you are supposed to read. file away things you are supposed to file away.
i got so high i scratched till i bled
love myself better than you
i know its wrong
but what should i do?
if your life is a hangover, i would like to be your advil and beer/tomato juice remedy concoction
does this mean you ain't gonna get promoted to general?
Hey Y
I had that same foreign language thing when I was in Japan.
There's a 'change language' thingy bit downt the bottom of the sign in page - good luck - at least German ain't hyrofuckingglyphics like Japafuckingnese
C is right.
happy st patricks day. what a good saint he was. killing all those snakes then playing his flute while all the children followed him out of the town into the ocean off that cliff. which means it's time to drink green beer and kiss people under the shamrocks. etc.
I have a relevant joke:
Q: How can you make any woman have an orgasm during sex every time, guaranteed?
A: Who cares?
Among the biggest culprits were the so-called "2-28" loans that offered low interest rates and payments for the first two years, but then spiked up. Many borrowers misunderstood the terms or thought they could refinance, and found themselves stuck with mortgages that they could no longer afford.
Nassar and others worry that the true cost of chasing the American dream is adding up quickly. They say soaring foreclosure rates will rip apart lower-income communities where a disproportionate number of those loans were written.
A study released this month by a group of fair housing agencies showed that the price of homeownership was often higher for black and Hispanic borrowers.
The groups examined lending in six major cities including New York, Los Angeles and Chicago and found that black borrowers were 3.8 times more likely to receive higher-cost home loans than were white borrowers. Hispanic borrowers were 3.6 times more likely
