1. "Divo...A few thoughts from your co-host...<br /><br />1. "Divorce Insurance" -- How is this better than a prenuptial agreement? Also, perhaps "John" can clear this up for me, but how in the world do you make the premiums affordable for such a thing? Half of all marriages end in divorce, no? Do you get some sort of discount for being Mormon? Or Muslim, where you're more likely to honor-kill your spouse than divorce her?<br /><br />2. "Cheating" -- It sounds petty because it is petty. Also, if you're in a relationship and sex is not a part of it and it's a serious enough type of thing to be considered "cheating" when you fuck somebody else, it's incredibly likely that you're a highly religious type of person, and cheating is the least of your problems. Secular types in relationships long enough to be serious enough to make fucking someone else "cheating" have sex with one another. Also, you're not cheating when you jailbreak your phone, you're breaking a legal contract and are subject to the full force and fury of AT&T's legal department. Good luck.<br /><br />3. "Performance Enhancement" -- What the fuck, dude? Is is 2006 again, suddenly? I would argue with you here, but that's what you're looking for. You're plainly and simply wrong about this issue, and a racist. I will simply say that if we're interested in correcting that which is "naturally unfair," why have contests of sport at all? We'd be better off setting a maximum performance baseline and not allowing anyone who exceeds it to participate--they can just go at it until one gives up or they both fall over from exhaustion. Exceptionalism is something I value, but maybe that's just my bias as someone naturally smarter than most of the rest of the population shining through.<br /><br />4. "Potter" -- Few things are more obnoxious to me than "Previously, on ______" segments. Why the fuck did I watch the entire movie, show, whatever, if the whole thing can be summed up with 30 seconds of jump-cuts and broken dialogue? Have a little more respect for your shit than that. And Abe, if you're so interested in what happened in the intervening years at Hogwarts (fag), surely you'd have wikipedia'd it, or something. I'll give you a hint: Teenage drama, Expecto Patronum, little bit of Quidditch, more teenage drama, Stupefy!, Voldemort.<br /><br />5. "Lol-ing." -- This is something I've had a problem with for years, and I think people are catching on. I've even noticed that some people are now saying, instead of "lol," something to the effect of "I literally just laughed out loud" when they really did just laugh out loud. Nobody believes it when somebody Lol's at them. Exclamation points are indeed out of hand, as well.<br /><br />You'd think we'd run out of shit to argue about eventually, right? Let's hope not.<br /><br />Later,<br />-Bob.The Bob and Abe Showhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13878301255606082567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7775746558672398600.post-31092990590169493142009-12-11T07:10:59.708-05:002009-12-11T07:10:59.708-05:00"I'm really surprised that the insurance ..."I'm really surprised that the insurance industry has not come up with 'divorce insurance' policy (don't they have insurance policies for body parts?).
