Pizza's a vegetable... Is that so?

and also because I got rejected a few days ago

The fact that often people cut expenses on security and important procedures and such, only to gain more money; especially dangerous in the food and pharmacy industry, I mean those people are deliberately hurting and sometimes killing people.
One example: animal meal. If I'm not mistaken, it has been forbidden mainly because of the BSE crisis; now, it wouldn't be a problem if the animal meal was processed correctly. It's simply that at some point, under that dear Ms Margaret Thatcher who promoted bigger revenues at all costs, peolpe started to lower the heat in the meal processing to save heating expenses. With the result that BSE survived where it should not have.
Another example: nanoparticles. They don't have to be notified on the 'ingredients' list yet, so the industry puts them everywhere, for example to keep the meat 'fresh' longer so they don't have to throw it away so fast; or, they use TiO2 nanoparticles to keep things sptoless white, toothpaste among others. The only problem is that studies have shown that if rats are fed nanoparticles in a substantial amount over time their brain gets damaged; the problem is that those nanoparticles manage to cross the blood-brain barrier and thus can get into the brain, so if they're ingested regularly over a long period, they can do some damage.
In China (especially, but sadly not exclusively), they're using poisonous and carcinogenic things in the food industry; the rich upper class however, knowing what is in the food, eat only 'clean' organic food. The rest is doomed to ingurgitate whatever they can afford. This wouldn't be necessary if the industry would actually take notice of people's health instead of wanting to cut expenses to a minimum.

Cereal.

Yes.

Cereal.

Back then it was all Mini Wheats and healthy breakfast cereals. Now it's "a balanced breakfast" of COOKIE Crisp and COCOA PUFFS. Yep, that's part of the balanced breakfast. Cookies and Chocolate. Mmmmmmmmm.

It's not the manufacturers that piss me off, it's the parents that let their kids eat this stuff. You know why it tastes like a cookie? Because it IS a cookie. It's like having a bowl of almost a whole package of Chips Ahoy!

They'll see once there kids get 400 pounds.

Here. I suppose so!

[quote=The Article]As it stands, two tablespoons of tomato paste (the amount that goes on a one-serving pizza) counts as a vegetable[/quote]

You know what's funny? Tomato is a fruit.

[quote=Wikipedia]Tomato may refer to both the plant (Solanum lycopersicum) and the edible, typically red, fruit which it bears.[/quote]

The fact that our congressmen and women actually have the time to sit around and decide that pizza is a vegetable makes me want scream in anger, on another planet of course.

A while back, when I was a freshman in high school, I was talking to an acquaintance of mine who happened to be a devout Christian, we "debating" over the age of the world, whereupon she claimed that the world was only 5000 years old. Now the possibility of sarcasm did cross my mind, so I double checked, the response remained the same, and she maintained that she was being serious. When I asked her about the older religions and cultures in the world, this girl, a future IB student had the audacity to claim that ancient history was a giant conspiracy propagated by the governments of the world.

Never in my life have I heard something so utterly stupid. The worst part about that is that while she has changed there are so many more, who are both much older, and far more obstinate and ignorant.

...plus, if you want to lose weight, don't drink cola. Period :P

When I'm often surrounded by people who refuse to work and do things in school (majority of students act like this at my school), then they complain about how they are doing bad. I mean, if you refuse to work and learn then don't come to school. Make it better for all of us. They're disruptive, too. I dislike being surrounded by these people 7+ hours on weekdays.

I hate how most of the kids I know are so sexaphobic. And they'll immediantly deem any topics that they don't know about as nasty, wrong, or bad. I give them facts, and they just dismis it.

And the people who are such prissy little babies about germs. So what if I drink out of someone's water bottle? I'm not gonna get AID's!

Some kid gave me a sip of his Gatorade at baseball practice when I didn't have anything. Another kid goes, "Bro, your gonna get mono."

And he was right. I did get mono.

No, I didn't.

It's people like those who I wanna smack
