    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...

    A food snob who apparently knows a great deal about the subject, but actually is merely a person with an eating disorder--they would swallow live flies if someone informed that they tasted heavenly

    .......come on. That pun for 'hell' was so satisfying, I may never write again.

    But as I'm here...

    pageant: in Europe, a formal display intended as a celebration of tradition, triumph or social coherence. In America, a bunch of buxom young women in bikinis. Take your pick. I know which I prefer.

    situation comedy Comedy suited to the situation, i.e., there's nothing else to watch on TV at the moment, and you have ran out of good DVD's. The situation comedy lives on a diet of bored watchers and canned laughter, a deadly combination that tends to liquefy brains

    Facts
    Some of us laugh
    Some of us cry
    Some of us smoke
    Some of us lie
    But it's all just the way
    that we cope with our lives...
