Apparently, healthy food and exercise kill you.

Now Trep, I haven't the faintest idea what you mean...

Perhaps, but you're still a whore.

Now that is irony.

That guy was actually really cool. He lived in Berkeley and was a huge supporter (and benefactor) of UC Berkeley ever since he graduated. Everyone who met him (he often ran with our track team during practices) said he was a great guy.

I've read though this whole thread and find no one had the reaction I did to remixor's title. I found it supremely funny, not ironic, not poetic justice, not rising to a level of seriousness, just one huge uncontrolled outburst of laughter. God I needed this thread somehow today.

More comic justice than cosmic then?

Have to agree with you there. Made me giggle like a schoolgirl.
