Almost every famous person you've ever heard of (and most you haven't heard of) lived on this kind of diet. And they drank stuff too. They launched missiles into space and to the moon. Every console in the LCC had an ashtray. KSC was full of cigarette smoke everyday all of the time while men were going to the moon. Women were secretaries and men were engineers. And engineers eat bacon and eggs for breakfast. How do I know? I was there. They built ships, big ships. They built bridges. They got out and did stuff. Everyday. After having bacon and eggs for breakfast, leftover meatloaf sandwiches for lunch and roast beef and mashed potatoes for dinner. Mashed potatoes and rolls with gravy and real butter. It's possible that a few of them did not live as long as some of the vegan flowers but they lived more glory in one Apollo launch than any vegan flower or SJW will live their entire, sad, pitiable lives. There were no safe places in engineering. Only constant, grueling, never ending math problems. That most of them only mastered after long, grueling, constant application and study. And they didn't go out drinking on Friday night because they sat all week in a classroom full of sissies talking about feelings. After Friday night drinking and several hamburgers and sleeping in Saturday they spent the rest of Saturday and Sunday doing math. Then they went into the chem lab Monday and blew stuff up. Then they became rocket scientists, engineers, jet pilots, astronauts, technicians, electricians and plumbers. Then worked their butts off for 40 years. There ain't no rocket scientists who subsist on lettuce.Posted by Larry Geiger at October 13, 2016 10:44 AM The Top 40: Comment on The gist is this: humans aren’t biologically designed for rich food, yet in its presence we have no defense, Posted by gerardvanderleun at October 14, 2016 11:23 AM

The Trump campaign needs to start an internet campaign where productive "hard working Americans" tweet pictures of food that "Made America Great". Call it MAGA Food, whatever.
It is the perfect nexus. Millenials tweet the hell out of their faces and their food. G-d, I'm so sick of my kids tweeting food pix! Why not turn this irritating impulse into something a whole lot more constructive?

Petrified that somebody would call them a name. Every time there's a reat test we win. Let's go win a big one. I nominate Target. Nothing personal, I like Target. But somebody has to go.

Stop coddling the whiney children, it's embarrassing. Treat them exactly like you KNOW they need to be treated.
Somewhere along the way the american communists have established the idea that it is OK for them to offend but not ok for them to be offended. WTF is THAT all about????
Fuk that.
If someone offends me they get metaphorically punched right in the face, multiple times.
Rarely do I strike first but if someone goes out of their way to get on my nerves I won't hesitate to eat their lunch right now.
Figure out your own game and git some goat.
Put the whiney children to bed with no supper.
Perfect! That's living large in every way.
I am expecting a Trump presidency to turn the tide on Pussyism in this country.
