Read the original story. You'll be amazed at the stuff that's either left out or altered.

My comfort zone for comfort food is a balancing act along a trend line, looking for rich chocolate for the not-so-rich consumer.

This is similar to an older one, but the difference here is that this one happened, except it was more "not a logical fallacy".

But, seriously, anyone who gives people permission to tell him to shut up should realize that those around him will most likely feel free to do so even without his permission.

Third Millennium Mathematics
