My father is a scientist with two post-grad degrees. He reiterated throughout my childhood that there would always be someone smarter than me, just like there were loads of people smarter than him. He was the smartest person I could imagine, so it meant all the more to me, and taught me never to believe I was the…

I just had Chipotle a few days ago, yet survived so far without any ill effects. Perhaps I am made of Penicillin?

I love poetry (literally have favorite poems, poets, lines that make me tear up a little, etc) but also I am very very mentally ill. So like much of art, it only makes sense to people who are overdramatic and wrong in the head.

30 seconds? Can that be extended to “at least 12 hours” when I’ve been drinking?

“You can’t get involved and break up a fight nowadays the way lawsuits are and everything? Liable to get yourself arrested. Nah. Let’s just stand here and enjoy it. Matter of fact, get yourself a Honey Bun and while you’re at it, get me one too. Two is even better than one. That ain’t right. Look. The little one just…

Yes, except what this chart does not convey is how much water per calorie. When we run the numbers that way, suddenly meat starts to become far more water efficient.

Try hitting a farm store (like, at an actual farm where they grow their own) in June. Put it on your calendar. I promise, well worth it :)

Also, chocolate milk is the best post-workout recovery beverage. That's not an opinion, that's SCIENCE.

According to Heinz Valtin of the Department of Physiology, Dartmouth Medical School, there's no scientific basis for even the 8 cups that pop science recommends, let alone these larger numbers. The closest thing to a scientific recommendation is 8 glasses, INCLUDING THE FREE…
