I don’t like being a dick.
Ok, I’m sure there are some people who may read the above statement and say to themselves “then maybe you shouldn’t be one,” but those people suck and probably don’t read my blog anyway.

Sometimes you have to find witty ways to write about a subject and other times the stories just kinda write themselves. Case in point? The following headline from an article over at The Guardian.
Blowfish Testicles poison seven in Japanese restaurant
You know, I get that there is a certain amount of appeal in eating food that is kind of edgy, and blowfish certainly falls into that category. You’re talking about a “delicacy” that, if not prepared properly, is about 100 times more deadly than cyanide. There comes a point, however, when even those who like eating on the wild side have to stop and say “is this really a good idea?”
For me that line just happens to be poisonous testicles.
