Don't even try to shit me you silly twat. They don't even allow the Irish to mop up or do dishes in Lily-White-Laura-Ashley-Presbyterian-Midwest-Bird-in-a-Gilded-Cage Suburb where the Good Sushi in this part of the Patch is located.

Go have another Guiness and kill the three brain cells you have left.

I only warn you because you're pretty.


ETA: not just a hat trick, but a freaking raw fish hat trick. Ironweed owes me all the Good Sushi I can eat.

I eat tuna and/or salmon more than 3x per week (though at least one portion of the salmon per week is smoked, so I don't know how that works into the mercury equation), and will continue to do so. In fact, those are basically the only meats I eat (rarely a scallop, shrimp or lobster). But if it makes you feel better, I'll watch more closely to see if my urine starts glowing or my hair starts falling out in clumps.

I've been meaning to go totally veggie (but not vegan), but it is so much easier with the number of times per week I eat out to have the seafood option open to me. I'm not really much of a carnivore.

Bring me an avocado roll, OK?

The lettice and avacoda salad at the sushi place down the street from me is fantastic. Mmmm, ginger dressing.

Hahaha. While you were out getting that sushi I snuck into your house to steal CDs but they were all for crap, so I hid your copies of the new ColdPlay CD and the Will Smith boxed set instead.

Good question. It amazes me that someone can read that crap and think that there is one ounce of material in there that anyone would be interested in. I read it thinking that the ounce must be in there somewhere. And that, does indeed, make me stupid.

When I was in grad school I briefly dated a marine biology PhD candidate who was writing her dissertation on plankton. We broke up, on relatively amicable terms, shortly before Thanksgiving. For Thanksgiving, I didn't go home, but rather had two friends from the English Department over for a fabulous, if I say so myself, shrimp marinara (Hi Fringey!). We got really drunk and started gossiping about people, including my ex, who was a college friend of one of my guests. At some point we started mocking her dissertation topic by substituting the word plankton for key words in every title or line of prose or poetry we could think of. You know --

The Sound and the Plankton,
Call me plankton;
Ask not for whom the plankton tolls, it tolls for thee;
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of plankton;
All happy plankton are alike;
Margaret are you grieving over Planktongrove unleaving;
Gather ye plankton while ye may;
Shall I compare thee to a summer's plankton, though art more lovely and more temperate;
Things fall apart, the plankton cannot hold; ...


And on and on and on. Having taken the English Literature GRE only about a year before, we were still loaded up with quotes to use. And every time we thought of another one, we laughed so hard we nearly cried. There were even moments were we were hitting the floor with our hands. Mind you, we were wasted. But still, even in our wasted state, there was one moment, rather suddenly, where hilarity no longer ensued, and we ceased.

Those who eat fugu soup are stupid. But those who don't eat fugu soup are also stupid.

I'm dead. But I get to lose my mind first, right?

I'm not kidding. I've been eating salmon or tuna nearly daily for I don't know... maybe seven years? Its good for your heart and skin, so whatever ill effects the mercury brings, I'm sure its all a wash...

Fuck the CDC. I can't go in the sun. I can't smoke cigarettes. I can't enjoy a quintuple espresso latte. I can't have that extra glass of vodka. I can't eat meat. I can't eat raw oysters. I can't talk on the cell phone while driving. I can't eat cold cuts (natrates). Ecstacy might boil my blood. Acid will give me flashbacks. Pot will give me the lung cancer and get me arrested. Fucking unless I'm wearing a goddamned surgical glove on my cock will get me [insert exotic sex disease here]. That cavity I haven't dealt with might give me periocarditis someday...

Jesus, how in the fuck did anyone live to be 50 before all the fucking do-gooders started teaching us how dangerous living was?
