This driving safe is for the fucking birds! As many of you know,
because of my tickets I have been trying to drive as perfect as I
could, because another ticket means my license will be suspended for 3
months. Now, I have to change my whole way of driving. For example,
normally, I would be in the left lane seeking out the person that is
speeding. Now, because I don’t want the temptation to speed, I have
been driving in the right lane behind the slow drivers. This is so
frustrating, as I just want to get in the left lane, slam on the gas
and fly past them. But no, instead, I follow the old lady in front of
me at a safe distance. And nothing is more lame than driving with
windows down and something great blaring out of the radio, like
Metallica or Van Halen or the Black Eyed Peas as you are driving the
speed limit in the left lane while mini vans and semi trucks speed past
you. I mean, when you hear a song like Van Halen’s “Panama” you should
be speeding, shit, its practically a law to speed during that song. But
nooooooooo, I can’t speed, I have to be careful. Now, I know all of
this is my own fault and I shouldn’t be speeding anyway’s, but it sure
is damn frustrating.Every 4th of July they have that hot dog eating contest. For some
reason that is beyond me, they try to claim this as a sport. I have to
have an extremely emphatic opposition to this as a sport. Its eating,
its not a damn sport. Sorry, but if it causes your cholesterol to go up
and you to get fatter, it aint a damn sport, its a meal. Sure, there is
the danger of choking to death, that doesn’t make it a sport, I
mean, when was the last time you saw them stop a football game to give
a linebacker the Heimlich Maneuver. Can you just seen an official
saying this during a football game: “Offsides, number 54, choking on a
meatball sandwich, first down!” Sure, its funny, but it doesn’t go with
the whole theme of football. And you don’t wear a bib in any other
sport. Sure, catchers wear chest protectors, but its to protect their
chest from foul balls, not to prevent mustard from getting on their
jersey. If eating is a sport, than whose to say taking a shit isn’t a
sport? I mean, if putting it in is a sport, than certianly flushing it
out has to count for something, right?
“Live from Orlando, its the World Series of Competitive Shitting! And
here comes our returning champion, Terd Crapper, fresh from a visit to
White Castle! Boy does he look like he’s gotta go, he has got a stack
of newspapers under his arm thicker than a dictionary.” Sure,
you can make an argument for a pissing contest being a sport, I mean
what guy among us hasn’t tried to out piss somebody in a public
restroom or try to piss further during a frat party, but its still not
a sport. Just think about all the other everyday activities that can be
a sport. Brushing your teeth. Showering. Breast feeding. Wait, now the
breast feeding, I might be on to something. Just undo the bra, hook the
mouth up to the nipple and the first one to burp without crying wins.
And because there are naked boobies involved, guys will pay big bucks
to see that. Now how about competitive cleaning? Just look at them race
their vacuum cleaners like their lives depended on it. But, the biggest
reason why eating isn’t a sport is because binge drinking isn’t a
sport. I ask you people, is their anything that requires as much
dexterity and balance as a keg stand? That alone makes it a sport. Then
you toss in walking and not falling over, being able to still see
straight enough not to spill your drink all over yourself and
most importantly, the endurance to keep drinking. If that’s not a
sport, than surely eating is not a sport. I’ve been to college parties,
out drinking your buddies is about as competitive and as important as
any NHL game. And just see how serious the mood turns when you run out
of beer. Its the drinking equivalent of a sport injury. Everybody gets
quiet and for a few minutes, there is a silent panic until you find
somebody sober enough to make a beer run. And when somebody throws up,
its kinda like when a player makes a boneheaded play. Don’t think so?
Just compare the reaction next time somebody throws up with your own
reaction the next time somebody on your favorite team fucks up. Now,
clearly, drinking is more of a sport than eating, and honestly drinking
still isn’t a sport. So lets just call eating what it is: pigs eating
themselves so full, they need to be helicoptered home.

haha, I’m not posting about it. it’s too wonderful to tell the entire world about. I’ll email you with the details when I get the time, though.
What about Sumo?
( Didja miss me? )
Hahahaha, yes, I have always thought drinking should be a sport. As my friend Brandon said this weekend, “Ashley can out-drink me ten to one.” Based on that comment alone, I think I would be an All Star. Seriously.

And you can look at it this way, if you ever find yourself in tennessee, i’ll be there
