Trust me, you don't want pasta!!

Okay so I have to tell the world about this crazy find. I guess a lot of you have probably eaten SKITTLES, yes those lovely sweets that have "the taste of a rainbow"....a hum…yeah right!!!

Well, it seems that in a 100g of skittles there's…..wait for it…...

89g OF CARBOHYDRATES

That’s FUC** CRAZY!!! That means for every little skittle that you are eating, you are taking in 90% carbs!?!!? Screw pasta, the best source of carbohydrates is skittles, and I feel the need to tell everyone about it. This means you only have to buy 2 packets of skittles (55g a packet) and you'll get your fare share of carbs for the day, plus no washing up or waiting for food to cook…AWESOME!!!

This also got me thinking, if skittles, which I thought was full of sugar and shit, contains this much carbs, then what other foods or sweets contains ridiculous amounts of something unexpected…..anyone?

Could you survive in the Jungle?

Yesterday after leaving my own house party for a few hours I went to another house party, where me and a few friends got into some deep and meaningful conversations.

Okay so "Could you survive in the Jungle?" is not very deep and meaningful, but it was a very heated debate. Basically the discussion went….....humans adapt to their environment, so do you reckon that you could survive in the jungle (amazon was the example) if you were just put there on your own….........what do you think?

{The debate went as far as talk of an experiment. This will take place one weekend in a random park, with nothing but the surroundings, to see if we could make a killing instrument within 5 hours…...sad, I think so!!}

Anything that doesn't kill you only makes you stronger?!?!?

I was just wondering about the phrase:

"Anything that doesn't kill you only makes you stronger"

To some extent I agree with this comment.
Was just wondering what other people thought?

Bitterness

BITTERNESS – Difficult or distasteful to accept, admit, or bear: the bitter truth; bitter sorrow.

I would just like to comment on the harsh reality that is encompassing the football world at the moment:

While watching the deserved (slightly bias) victory over Arsenal by Manchester United I was sick to my stomach by the amount of people that felt angered and infuriated by the result. There is a big difference between being disappointed and being bitter.

Just because a football team has beat another football team there is no need to go home and cry. If the same ammount of passion was put into something more productive then the whole country would be a better place, but no….....I love my team and I'm going to hit you because we lost!!

Don't get me wrong, I dont like it when my team, or country losses, but I'm not going to be bitter or go out looking for fights, loss is something that my country has had to adhere for many many years. And loss is something that everyone experiences in one form or another, but the way in which we react is what makes us. Perspective football fans, perspective…...nobody likes a bad loser or a hooligan!!
