All the news.

A Chinese supplement for erectile dysfunction contains the active ingredient in viagra. So what we have here is a supplement that actually works and by golly that IS newsworthy. The FDA says "Noooooooooo!" taking it may kill you...of course you get to choose between dying with a wrinkly gerkin that ain't seen no lovin in years or die making love to a beautiful young lady and a raging boner. That's just something we'll all have to decide for ourselves.

High Calorie\High Fat foods are bad for fat people. I'm torn on this one. I'm not entirely sure if the oxidative stress of a big mac is really a big deal when you're significantly overweight....I mean you've got other issues. I'm not sure if the food itself was the cause (did they try it with regular food and get a different result?). And to round it out, does this mean that if you're not fat that you get the green light to pig out? At least until you're fat and can't eat that shit any more? But then it's too late...the mc'nuggets gotcha...

Parents are in denial about their kids being fat. Big shocker. Parents think their kids are cute and "rambunctious" when they're ugly little ass holes too. Of course if you do tell your kid that they're fat then you're being abusive and your kid will end up dancing on a re-enforced pole. There's got to be a happy medium somewhere. Now that I have access to television again I can see some of the disconnect between fat Americans and fat "other people". I was watching some MTV show and it had all the cool teenagers...90% of them were chunky. My new favorite show "Deal or No Deal" the guests...fat. When did fat become normal?

You haven't been in America for a while. Fat's been normal for several years now.
