"How da hell I'm gonna know dat?? Dat dere's a hunnerd an fifty mile from here!"
And he slammed down the phone.
Mrs. asked, "Who wuz dat?"
Mr. replied, "Some dam fool wantin' to know if da coast wuz clear."

So, in sweden, railroad company Arriva does not allow their male train employees to wear shorts, even on hot sommerdays. The rules, however, does not say anything about male staff wearing skirts. So far, 13 railroad engineers are opting for skirts, instead of warm pants:

Arriva has no objections to this:
""Our thinking is that one should look decent and proper when representing Arriva and the present uniforms do that. If the man only wants to wear a skirt then that is OK," Arriva communications manager Tomas Hedenius told the paper.

I have half a mind to go over there and slap that shit out of your hands and replace it with kale and a nutra-bullet smoothy.
But I really don't want to go to Texas.

I get out of breath trying to reach the keyboard.
You might just be masterbating a little too much. Try stopping that first, then we'll move on to chips.

Is that even possible?!

Yeah - good thinking.
Masturbating and reaching towards the keyboard are arduous tasks.
Best to avoid anything that could be considered exercise and focus on the flabdom fries.

Thanks for the helpful tips.

Habla francais?
An English cat (called one-two-three) and a French cat (called un-deux-trois) have a swimming race. Which cat wins?
One-two-three cat wins, because un-deux-trois cat sank.

Make them out of sweet potato and bake them for Jebus' sake!
For every one fry you have do one sit up/push-up/burpee and it'll be fine.
