You do know you have no friends, yes?
ReplyDeleteActually this is not good stuff to know. Like the asbestos around my water heater, the lead in my paint, the radiation in my granite counter tops, the mercury levels in fish is not going to do anything but scare people. The study on radiation in granite conters was initiated and funded by DuPont, makers of Correon synthetic counter tops. A current study of children in the Seychelles Islands shows that continuous low-level exposure does not cause any neurodevelopmental problems.
ReplyDeleteAs a kid I played with mercury, coating dimes with it to make them shiny and slippery. I had lead toy soldiers and I bit down on lead split shot to attach it to my fishing line. And as far as I can tell, there has been one case of a starving child in in a New York slum eating flaking lead paint.
Live your life...Eat fish, cheese, red meat, drink good wine and scotch. Stop reading foolish warnings.
Whoaa! Is what you're saying that I am going to die no matter what I do?
ReplyDeleteTo anonymous:
ReplyDeleteOf course I have no friends. If I had a social life, would I be copying lists of fish into a blog?
And you are happy with this arrangment? No-one even looks at your blog. Might be a good time to re-evaluate how you view yourself.
ReplyDeleteHey Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteSee that hit counter at upper right? There have been 6159 looks at what I write. That is just since I put the hit counter up early this year. And part of the year I was on a bicycle trip in Canada and Alaska and didn't write much. How many looks have you gotten?
Hey Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteDid you see that your and my hero Uriah Faber got beat in the first round? It proves that anything is possible.
For instance it is even possible that you could get over whatever makes you so pointlessly hostile to people you have never met.
Nah... I just wander the blogosphere and meet people with big opinions but small minds. There are many like you.
ReplyDeleteHey anon...
ReplyDeleteYou remind me of the famous bathroom wall poem.
Those who write on outhouse walls
Roll their shit in little balls.
Those who read these lines of wit,
Eat those little balls of shit.
Eat shit anon. You are too negative hide behind anonymous.
Thanks Harv'
ReplyDeleteHave you not considered that I may be Harv, and this was merely a ruse to prove my own chivalry?
ReplyDeleteHarv would never write anything as inane as anon has written, Jack, and don't let anyone tell you different. You are definitely a person. I want to be there the next time you and Harv are in a room together.
ReplyDeleteI had considered that you are your own anonymous, but you denied that and I believe you.
C'est tout pour le moment.
