top 10 diet myths



i might have posted this a while ago, but it needs reiterating. all those celebrity diets, new age eating crap, are all de-bunked here, and backed up with actual research, not just anecdotal evidence. i have posted all the myths, click on the link to see the article:

calling out bullshit clicky

myth 1: Eat frequently to "stoke the metabolic fire".

myth 2: Eat smaller meals more often for hunger control.

myth 3:  Eat small meals to keep blood sugar levels under control.

myth 4: Fasting tricks the body into "starvation mode".

myth 5: Maintain a steady supply of amino acids by eating protein every 2-3 hours. The body can only absorb 30 grams of protein in one sitting.

myth 6: Fasting causes muscle loss.

myth 7: Skipping breakfast is bad and will make you fat.

myth 8: Fasting increases cortisol.

myth 9: Fasted training sucks. You'll lose muscle and have no strength.

myth 10: "Eat breakfast like a king, lunch a queen, dinner like a pauper."

BULLDAWGS....RISE UP?!?

avengers gag reel

spoiler alert.

if you haven't seen the film, you might not want to watch this. but if you haven't seen the film, you're probably a giant loser anyway and don't mind having spoilers!

also, don't put off watching this, marvel has been taking a bunch of these down.

ahhhh, thank you greg daniels, thank you



i have been an office fan since it started up 8 years ago. granted the first season kinda sucked as they were still trying to find their legs and establish characters different from the british version.

but as seasons went on they got stronger and stronger as did my love for pam beasley. i even went to a office convention in scranton, pa. got to see a bunch of the show peeps. shook hands with craig robinson (darryl) and oscar nunez (oscar). heard creed bratton (his actual name is creed bratton, weird eh?) play guitar with the scran-tones. i've seen every episode, i've laughed, i've cried, it was better than cats. but since jim and pam got married and steve carell left, the show has been in a steady decline. and it was sad to see. michael scott was really the heart and soul of the office, and the romance bw jim and pam was the glue. with those two things gone, it was just a shell of its former self.

BUT, now we have the creator coming back. the man who brought it all to us. he had moved on to do parks and rec., but he's coming back to oversee the final season of the office, and i'm so very excited.

huh. that's wierd

i never woulda thought that would happen....


california worker shortage

AND the surprising thing is that all those jobs that the immigrants were doing aren't being filled by hard working 'murican workers. if only someone coulda have seen these crazy results from draconian immigration laws. and all this will lead to higher prices at the supermarket. which will in turn be blamed on obama. boom!

snobs

first we had wine snobs, then beer snobs, i guess this is where we are headed next?

soda snobs?

olympic perspective


here comes the choo choo train!

EAT IT!

ron swanson on books....

click here for the full article



ron swanson talks books....

Atlas Shrugged:
It’s never too early to learn that the government is a greedy piglet that suckles on a taxpayer’s teet until they have sore, chapped nipples.

Fifty Shades of Grey:
You had me at meat tornado.

Mr. Peanut:
On my death bed my final wish is to have both of my ex-wives rush to my side so I can use my dying breath to tell them to go to Hell one last time. Would I get married again? Absolutely. If you don’t believe in love, what’s the point of living?

War and Peace:
I never thought I would say this to you son, but you may be over thinking this.

When asked to blurb Michael Chabon’s new novel, Telegraph Avenue:
I won’t publicly endorse a product unless I use it exclusively and I really believe in it. My only official recommendations are US Army-issued mustache trimmers, Morton’s Salt, and the C.R. Lawrence fine two inch style oscillating knife blade.

The Great Gatsby:
Encapsulate the spirit of melancholy. Easy. Boom, a sad desk. Boom, sad wall. It’s art. Anything is anything.

Oliver Twist:
I got my first job when I was 9. Worked at a sheet metal factory. In two weeks, I was running the floor. Child labor laws are ruining this country.

Infinite Jest:
Haircuts, there are three acceptable haircuts: High and tight, crew cut, buzz cut. Are the scissors broken in your house, son?

Pride and Prejudice:
Ron: To me, this situation is a blood-soaked, nightmare-ish hellscape. However to Leslie Knope-
Leslie: Oh how fun!

On the ending of Atonement:
…my first wife Tammy tried throwing me a surprise birthday party . When I saw my friends hiding through the window, I drove to a gas station, called the cops and told them people had broken into my home. I’m not big on surprises.

To Ann Patchett, on State of Wonder not winning a Pulitzer:
Be proud of yourself. You deserve an award. Not this one, obviously. This one belongs to me. But some other one. Some other lesser award.

Freedom by Jonathan Franzen:
Take it down a notch. You already won your Oscar, DiCaprio.

On not liking Virginia Woolf:
I honestly believe that she was programmed by someone from the future to come back and destroy all happiness.

When asked if he was ready for the sequel to The Passage:
I was born ready. I’m Ron F*%king Swanson.

The Girl’s Guide to Hunting and Fishing, which he did not actually read:
Fishing relaxes me. It’s like yoga, except I still get to kill something.

The Audacity of Hope by Barack Obama
My idea of a perfect government is one guy who sits in a small room at a desk, and the only thing he’s allowed to decide is who to nuke. The man is chosen based on some kind of IQ test, and maybe also a physical tournament, like a decathlon. And women are brought to him, maybe … when he desires them.

Book Lust by Nancy Pearl:
Every time she laughs, an angel dies. Even telemarketers avoid her. Her birth was payback for the sins of man. But you know the worst thing about her? She works for the library.

The Book Thief:
Crying is only okay in two places: funerals and the Grand Canyon.

this looks good

maybe not i'll-watch-it-in-the-theater good, but i'll-check-it-out-afterwards good.


georgia: hot-racist-boring-humid

check out this fun little mappy thingy. it shows what the rest of the country thinks about all the other states.for georgia, we got hot, racist, boring, and humid. i'd agree with 3 outta 4 of those! maybe even 3.5 outta 4. but even so, i still love this place!

the internet is funny, and mtn dew is dumb

they had a contest to name their next caffeinated drank, and turned to polling the interwebs. it was to be heralded as the next code red, pitch black, or white out. here's what the internet thought it should be named:



OR


my favorites are "diabeetus" and "moist nugget". maybe now mtn dew has learned it's lesson. facebook is a much safer place than the internet at large.
