from The New York Post, April 29, 2008 [by-line Neil Graves]:
"A student at [NYU] found three razor blades in a muffin that had been left on a classroom desk.
" School officials said a professor had forgotten to remove the pastry, which had been used to illustrate a class on existentialism."
Challenge: Can anyone think of how three razor blades in a muffin can "illustrate a class on existentialism"?

Is it:
I think (there's a fucking razor in this muffin) therefore I am (not going to eat the damn thing)
?

From the many people you don't like, you have to CHOOSE which one you want to give the muffin to; and then you have to accept RESPONSIBILITY for your actions. To participate in the world, you must accept that DIRTY LIPS will result; you must revel in this, though in a restrained philosophical way. And most importantly, you must be ACCOUNTABLE for your muffin, before moving on to LOGICAL POSITIVISM in your syllabus.
