so i get home today from a long hard day of browsing the internet... errrrr... i mean WORKING, and debate: do i actually feel like doing anything tonight, or shall this introvert have a nice quiet evening at home? i choose the latter, and decide that a lovely bk double cheeseburger will hit the spot -- ketchup only, thanks. oddly enough, i order a large value meal, instead of the medium. i've done this perhaps half a dozen times in my short life, and that's being generous. it got me to thinking [insert joke here], which eventually landed me in the previously mentioned video store, renting super size me. [it's due back on wednesday at six, if anyone's curious.]

in case you've been living under a rock, super size me is a documentary in which the filmmaker eats nothing but mcdonald's, three meals a day, for thirty days. the doctors figure, eh, he'll gain some weight, his cholesterol will rise, something about triglycerides going up. unhealthy, to be sure, but nothing too drastic; just a little craziness for the sake of journalism. what we actually find out, though, is more than anyone bargained for. ewww.

two of my favorite things:

one i very much love the fact that a man eating nothing but processed foods with questionable origins for thirty days has a girlfriend who is a vegan cook. it just doesn't get much better than that, folks.

two "the smoking fry" bonus feature. scary. my burning question is: why aren't fries more like corn...?

picture and satirical commentary found at ship of fools.

"Be bloated but stay biblical!"

priceless.


logia's official website store proclaims, "The Bible Bar is a great way to control hunger pangs while still providing your body with the highest level of biblical nutrition."

biblical nutrition...?

actually, all the websites that talk about it in dead seriousness are [unintentionally] more hilarious than the satirical ones.
