America's most racist man tries Asian food

We are Nordic pagans! The Nazis’ War on Christmas | HISTORY
 
"Numb Little Bug"
Git yer goddamn Gook food outta ARE cuntry!
LYRICS: "I don't feel a single thing/ Have the pills done too much?/ Haven't caught up with my friends in weeks/ And now we're outta touch/ I've been drivin' in L.A./ And the world, it feels too big/ Like a floating ball that's bound to break/ Snap my psyche like a twig// And I just wanna see/ If you feel the same as me
  • [CHORUS
    This is God's own racist country, the Deep South
    Do you ever get a little bit tired of life?/ 
    Like you're not really happy, but you don't wanna die/ Like you're hangin' by a thread, but you gotta survive/ 'Cause you gotta survive/ Like your body's in the room, but you're not really there/ Like you have empathy inside, but you don't really care/ Like you're fresh outta love, but it's been in the air/ Am I past repair?
Big Pharma's chemical sorcery?
A little bit tired of trying to care when I don't/ 
A little bit tired of quick repairs to cope/ A little bit tired of sinkin', there's water in my boat/ I'm barely breathin', tryna stay afloat/ So I got these quick repairs to cope/ Guess I'm just broken and broke

[VERSE 2] The prescription's on its way/ With a name I can't pronounce/ And the dose I gotta take/ Boy, I wish that I could count/ 'Cause I just wanna see/ If this could make me happy// [CHORUS]

Shoulda stuck to Asian veg food
A little bit tired of trying to care when I don't/ A little bit tired of quick repairs to cope/ A little bit tired of sinkin', there's water in my boat/ I'm barely breathin', tryna stay afloat/ So I got these quick repairs to cope

[OUTRO] Do you ever get a little bit tired of life?/ Like you're not really happy, but you don't wanna die/ Like a numb little bug that's gotta survive/ That's gotta survive.

Whoa, Asians be crazy? (Rosemead)

Meditating; Food-Mood Connection

If you're trying to meditate or feel better, SUGAR is your enemy.

"Snacks Overpower Our Best Intentions"
LiveScience.com (9/16/08)

Despite our best intentions to eat something healthy, we often choose sugary snacks. Dutch researchers asked 585 participants to pick between four snacks: an apple, a banana, a candy bar, and a molasses waffle. About half of the participants indicated they would choose the apple or banana. But when presented with the actual snacks a week later, 27% of those who had said they'd pick a healthy one switched to the candy bar or waffle. And more than 90% of those who had initially made an unhealthy choice stuck with it.

Researchers figure that while we are in control of our intentions, our actual choices are often made impulsively, even unconsciously. "A substantial gap between healthy snack choice intentions and actual behavior was demonstrated," said study leader Pascalle Weijzen of Wageningen University in the Netherlands. "Despite that gap, the results suggest that individuals who plan to make a healthful choice are more likely to do so than those who plan to make unhealthful choices.

Because more than 50% of the population seems to have no intention at all of making a healthful choice, identifying tools by which this group can be motivated to choose a healthful snack is strongly needed." The study is detailed in the September/October issue of the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior.
