39. why do they act like college professors though?
It's fucking food. F-O-O-D. Where does the haugtiness come from? It's their own queer little hierarchy that seems so bizarre it is almost fetishistic when it's allowed to leak out into the real world. It gives me the willies..."suffer fools gladly"...jesus Christ, you are talking about peeling potatoes and shit.

:rofl:
