Weekend Update

Assholes are not exempt from practice during the weekends, although it would be just peachy if they took some downtime. This reference in particular goes out to Iced T, who we will introduce during a special series entitled: “He ain't heavy, he's my father, Asshole. (Ok fine. Maybe a little heavy…)” In honor of his eastern excursion, these assholes seemed particularly pertinent.

According to this article in the Saturday NYT: ‘When a caterer working for the United States Olympic Committee went to a supermarket in China last year, he encountered a piece of chicken — half of a breast — that measured 14 inches. “Enough to feed a family of eight,” said Frank Puleo, a caterer from Staten Island who has traveled to China to handle food-related issues. “We had it tested and it was so full of steroids that we never could have given it to athletes. They all would have tested positive.”’

Did you really need to test meat from China to deduce that it was full of steroids? Athletic assholes, you’re out of luck—looks like you’ll have to find another excuse when you test positive for steroid use. Oh, and population at large, do you know what is suggested by the premise that you’d actually consider eating meat in China, with or without prior knowledge of such testing? Eating meat in China is like Russian Roulette…or, in the words of Forest Gump, if you will, a box of chocolates; chicken, cow, dog, cat…you never know what you’re going to get. Asshole.
