SUGAR HIGH

Here are a few things that I've noticed while pondering whether I can get asbestos poisoning from accidentally snorting the topping off a powdered donut:

- Powdered donuts are really hard to eat.  In case you were wondering, the proper procedure for safely eating a powdered donut without coating your lungs or clothing with confectionery sugar is as follows: Inhale, hold your breath, open your mouth, insert donut, take a bite and remove donut from the vicinity of your breathing apparati, inhale again. Repeat.

- The Apocalypse, or rather post-apocalypse seems to be quite popular at the movies these days The Road, Book Of Eli, From Paris with Love.  Accordingly, I feel I've learned enough about life on post-apocalyptic earth to give you a bit of a preview:

• Despite the fact that the nuclear blast destroyed pretty much everything, sunglasses and goggles will be available to all, you know, because glass is so not fragile.  Hot women and heroes will also be lucky enough to get what appear to be scratch proof Oakleys.
• In the post-apocalypse, dental hygiene is the new racism. You'll be able to tell how important someone is to your world by their teeth.  If they have nice shiny ones, they're clearly key members of some unknown narrative.  If not, they're pretty much the token black guy in a horror movie.
• A fat, earinged, bald headed, post-middle-aged, John Travolta, will star in an action movie, as an action hero.

- Without Google I could not hope to spell the following expressions, many of which I use:

• Hoi Polloi
• C'est la vie
• Je ne sais quoi
• Que sera sera

- In a related note, do you think the French's profligate vowel usage is their way of sticking it to the Nazi's and their consonant heavy German?

- This is my new favorite website: http://www.unnecessaryquotes.com/

- When did not having plans for the Superbowl become the new, 'not having a date for Valentine's day'?

- Is it wrong to complain about having nothing to do at work? Or is this one of those situations where boredom doesn't get you any sympathy?

- Another related note: I don't mean to imply that I haven't had enough to do at work anything, but I've officially finished reading the internet.  Spoiler alert: Bruce Willis was dead the whole time!

- It isn't hypocritical for you to judge someone for reading a Dan Brown book on the train as long as you were embarrassed enough to remove the dust jacket when you read it on the train.

- Is this post just a long list of tweets?

- This town should look into changing its name.  This one too, now that I think about it.

- This was fun!
