    It's good to share a common interest.

    That's because they forget what they are arguing about halfway through and then start thinking about something else.

    "Whoa...what did you call me? I kill you...you stupid....hey...do we have any chips?"

    No, you need good ole' reliable and legal alcohol to beat your wife up and then go out drinking and driving and kill another family.

    My wife and I are more likely to do the opposite of fight....if you get what I'm saying. In fact, it's usually automatic.

    Yeah, when I would partake this was always the end game. I must say I often enjoyed it more after imbibing.

    I love all of these "studies".

    I stopped watching the news for that reason.

    You will get the "studies show coffee may be harmful to you health" and then a month later "studies show coffee may have some health benefits".

    I feel like someone pays for these "studies" to be publicized.

    So if anyone has seen the news lately, is coffee currently good or bad for me? I have a cup a day.

    The money they spent on this study proving out this very obviously true premise could have bought a LOT of weed for American couples on the rocks.

    I think you need 3 or 4 cups a day and studies say you will live longer.

    I did a study which indicated that at least half of the couples who regularly breathe oxygen are less likely than the average couple to engage in couples' violence.

    So, for a while, I whole-heartedly recommended that ALL couples regularly engage in oxygen-breathing.

    Unfortunately, upon further study of the results, the data ALSO indicated that at least half of the couples who regularly breathed oxygen are MORE likely than the average couple to engage in couple-oriented violence.

    So, I had to recommend that couples stop breathing oxygen immediately, to allow for more studies.

    But that didn't work out too well either..

    Ultimately, I think it all points to one inevitable conclusion: inconclusivity.

    This is a bogus study. In the Bible it specifically mentions that alcohol/wine should be consumed to honor the Lord.

    1 Timothy 5:23 - Drink no longer water, but use a little wine for thy stomach's sake and thine often infirmities.

    Ecclesiastes 9:7 - Go thy way, eat thy bread with joy, and drink thy wine with a merry heart; for God now accepteth thy works.

    There are countless other verses indicating the imbibing of wine is not only the proper thing to do but also the holy thing to do. Even Jesus turned water into wine.

    I see no mention of Jesus smoking mar1juana or MOJO or SPICE.

    Maybe we start reading more academic and scientific journals than Real Housewives recaps. Of course I don't know if that would be before or after hell freezes over.

    Also, water is wet.

    How can you want to beat up someone if you've got 'the munchies'?!!? :confused:
