It's helps maximise the amount of people pissed off at once.

Finally the crash comes from so much caffeine to stay awake today + 2 hours of sleep + endless excitement = super tired.

Key lime pie.
The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.

The most fundamental problem of politics is not the control of wickedness but the limitation of righteousness.

They're simple to make and taste great. The thing is, you have to eat them soon, you can't leave them lying about like you can with store-bought ones. No preservatives, see. And of course they have to be toasted. My theory is, the cooking on the griddle doesn't cook them all the way, you have to finish them in the toaster.

Guys, when you only have two three hours of sleep, it can make you hungrier than usual. What do you do about it? You buy yourself a large basket of KFC chicken strips and potato slices with honey mustard.

This basket is for two people but I am the equivalent of two people due to my appetite.

Why do you have only two-to-three hours of sleep in the first place?

So I was watching The Joy of painting and I refuse to believe Bob Ross was a drill sergeant. I simply cannot see how Bob Ross one of the most pure wholesome people to ever exist was a drill sergeant.

I also love the sound that is made as he scraps up the paint with the large blades and then taps on the surface of the board continuously to paint.

It just sounds so satisfying.

Having held military positions that required him to be, in his own words, "tough" and "mean", "the guy who makes you scrub the latrine, the guy who makes you make your bed, the guy who screams at you for being late to work", Ross decided that if he ever left the military, he would never yell or raise his voice again.
