...especially weight.

(click ad, via) "Demands" it. Undated ad for, probably, the National Dairy Council, est. 1915. Ply your charges with a stick of butter every morning, Mom, and "the battle will be half won." And don't forget the Red Meat, for "trained firm muscles that obey the mind in swinging the hoe."

The posts from years-gone-by are great but some historical accuracy is in order. 75-100 years ago children consumed too FEW calories, not too many. Products like meat and butter were luxury items -- kinda like the new age faggot crap you and other NY media butt-boys buy at Whole Foods with your strap-on-wearing girlfriends.

Why not poke fun at food ads from newspapers in Darfur... can you believe those dumb shines don't even take fish oils tabs every day?

Hey Anonymous... PROJECT MUCH???

Projection is considered one of the most profound and subtle of human psychological processes, and extremely difficult to work with, because by its nature it is hidden. It is the fundamental mechanism by which we keep ourselves uninformed about ourselves.

Humor has great value in any attempt to work with projection, because humor presents a forgiving posture and thereby removes the threatening nature of any inquiry into the truth.
