I just really hurt my back...

by flipping off my TV when Trump was doing that bullshit "press conference" with about 110 decibels of helicopter noise nearby. I'll never understand why he is not called out about that shit. The fucker uses it as pure distraction.

It made me get creative in how I gave the finger to my TV. Single finger, single finger stretched straight up to an unnatural length, double finger, double finger while flexing my pecs, double finger while thrusting my hips and snorting...

I can see it now.

Doc: How did you sustain this injury?

Me: I gave my TV the middle finger too hard.

I'm serious. Even when you're not actively thinking of him, there's
a constant hum in your head, a distracting dark vibe. It's everywhere.

I'm sure neighbors on their daily walks up the road wonder if crazy Mrs. Vinca will be swearing at the top of her lungs again.

11. You might want to see if you can locate the "off" button for your TV.

Then don't turn it on again.

You will be much happier.

That's what I do. No TV, plenty of salt. So far it's working quite well.



I have a recipe for a chocolate cake with chocolate icing, and I have a note on it to say make this if you fear your cholesterol levels have been dropping precipitously.
