Get a water filter.

Post by The Aceman » Sun Mar 09, 2008 12:28 pm

This is both disturbing and somewhat gross, Drugs in our drinking water:

Of course, the article goes on to say that even using water filters or drinking bottled water isn't enough, so what's the point?

I hate scare-mongering articles that bring up problems at a very minute level, propose no solutions, and dwell on the worst case scenario.

I, for one, don't wish lose my ability to spend less than 15 minutes getting what I came for in a store, or my ability to decide what to wear in five minutes. :cool:

:duck: :shoot: :blast: :help: :nenr:

I still like that quote/saying: "Men are smarter than women; if women were smarter, they'd all be lesbians."

oy! Can you even imagine? You think we have too much war now. You think cat fights are bad, just wait until we have cat WARS. And you know it would happen too.

And c'mon hostrauser, guys don't mind shopping. As long as it for themselves and something manly, such as a car, big screen TV, tools, etc. Shopping for someone else or clothes can pretty much be chalked up to torture.

Kind of off-topic, but one thing the doesn't fall under either classification is grocery shopping. Fun if you're really hungry, boring if you just ate.

:think:
One: I HATE shopping ... any type (grocery, clothes, Christmas gifts ...)
Two: I get showered, dried including hair, dressed and makeup put on if necessary in about 15 minutes. Deduct 5 sans makeup. And that includes picking out what I'm going to wear. AND it doesn't matter if it's everyday wear or a party, I still need to put on the same number of pieces of clothing so it still only takes me 10-15 minutes.
Three: We all know women make Da'Rules. Men wouldn't last a week as a woman (watch "What Women Want"). You will tell me I'm right about all this because that's what you all posted in a different thread.
Four: Yes men are smarter than women (a Danish study says men have 8% more brain mass and a recent SAT test study says men have a 3.5 to 5 point higher IQ than women), but women live longer. Also if men are that much smarter then they can figure out a way to fix the water - I have better things to do with my life (like passing along the "Book of Female Secrets" to my two daughters).

:twisted: :jedi: :nenr:

... and I still like the joke (and I hope this is WoP appropriate) ... Why do men become smarter when having sex? A: Because they are plugged into a genius.

Nothing I have to say at this juncture is WOP appropriate, so I'll be taking this to PMS... oops, I mean PMs. :razz:
