    People who take pride in only reading nonfiction books, as if it's some badge of pragmatism; some comment on their commitment to manly endeavors, not childish pastimes.

    Do you watch movies? Yes? Then you also enjoy fiction. What's more, when you're watching movies, you're just passively absorbing fiction, contrary to the active participation needed in reading it.

    In my experience, people who only read nonfiction are the most narrow-minded people out there.

    Summer colds. There is no reason I should have a sore throat right now. Stinks.

    If I am paying for a meal I will order it the way I wish. Why would I want onions on it if I hate onions?

    I can't imagine anybody only reading nonfiction.

    I mean, I love to read -- in fact, lately, one of my greatest fears that I've become conscious of is getting hit with macular degeneration, that condition we've heard so much about with regard to so many people in recent years, so that I wouldn't be able to read; I almost can't imagine it, even as it scares and saddens the hell out of me. And I read a bit of nonfiction, as people can tell from my book reviews. But that isn't all I read, and even the nonfiction I read often is true-life stuff that still has something of a story-telling aspect to it.

    But all straight documentary, informational, nonfiction stuff? That would be really boring.

    Plus, another thing that irks the shit out of me is wasting food.

    I hate tomatoes. I'm not eating one if you put it on my burger. So, save it for the weirdos who like them.

    Tomatoes are delicious. But they shouldn't be on a burger because they make everything else slide off the bun.

    Point being, don't bitch about your order being made wrong by the minimum wage slappy if you have 22 alterations to what's on the menu board.

    You can have it "your way" at home.
