Take geoff for instance. He's on a diet. Has been dieting and exercising for years now...dropped a ton of weight. I'm in his car today and I see a mcdonald's bag. He says the breakfast foods aren't that bad for you. Now here we see a classic method of self validation. I call it the "it could be worse" syndrome. Basically how it goes is that geoff tells me that his sausage egg and cheese sandwich is better for him than a bagel with cream cheese. And since people eat those all the time, how could this grease covered angio-burger be so bad. Well I have new for geoff. Just because there's something worse doesn't mean what you're doing isn't bad. Just because somewhere there's some backwards people's warring with each other using tactical ballistic missiles doesn't mean I can shoot you in the face with a pistol. Geoff: "Yeah I'll have the Lard of the Onion Rings combo with extra bacon and a side of carcinogens." Me: "Um, I'm no doctor, but don't you think that could be bad for you?" Geoff: "Can't be worse than what that guy's having" Me: "That's a dead cat." Geoff: "Exactly." Exactly. So geoff's back to his old eating habits. I can see him ballooning back up in no time. I see this with a lot of girls these days too. Especially ones in the gym. Now there are a lot of really attractive girls in the gym, but there are two distinct brands. There are those girls that other girls absolutely despise; you know, the ones who can eat three bowls of fatty o's and not gain an ounce. People hate them...all thin and attractive all the time... the nerve. Anyway, there's them, and then there are these other girls. Now the other girls can be just as if not more attractive than the quasi-bullemic size zero's, but there's just something about them that tells you that the day they stop working out like a motherfucker is the day they start getting weighed in on the elephant scale. Yeah, you know the ones.
