Carbs can be good for you

The recent anti-carb crusade that has taken the world by storm is close-minded and gastrophobic. Carbs can be good too!

One example? My friend Casey will be eating pancakes for charity. She will be pitted against local Indianapolis celebrities while she stuffs her face with evil carbohydrates drowned in delectable syrup and butter. And each competitor is raising money to benefit the St. Vincent de Paul Food Bank, which feeds over 3,000 families every week.

Do you have a few extra dollars in your Paypal account? Why not throw them her way and help feed a family?

In other Avita-news:

I’ve only gotten two entries to the Moobs Contest. Women, you’re disappointing me. Your husbands or boyfriends don’t have to have actual bra-wearable moobs. Just snap a pic and send it in, and everybody can vote! You have until tomorrow.

Also, thanks to everyone who tuned in last night to “Clearly, You’re Retarded.” If you missed the show, you can go here to listen to it, along with all of our archived shows. You can also download the mp3 or find us on iTunes by searching the podcasts for “retarded”.

    Was it a coincidence that you wrote this post on Carb Awareness Day?

    I’ve never gotten into this “carbs = evil” fad. All the good and healthy stuff is made of carbs – rice, vegetables, fresh fruit, and beer. Besides, if people really want to lose weight, they should avoid the unhealthy diets and get strung out on heroin.

    @Bunnylord, crystal meth works too.

    I love carbs. It would be so hard for me to give them up! I want to know why there aren’t charity events like that around HERE. I could really chow down on some pancakes about now. Except I am a slow eater.
    Babbling because I am pretty sure I’m still asleep.

    @Sybil Law, you should start a charity!

    @Robin, how many bagels could you eat?

    @Avitable, I really don’t want to know.

    No can do on the pancakes, my friend.

    It might help your fundraising, however, if you called them Spankakes.

    @whall, I’ll risk pancake death.

    I tell myself that carbs are good for me every time I crack open a beer.

    I tell myself that a lot, actually.

    By the way, there is a weird spelling error on your site that I think you should know about.

    After we submit a comment, a brief message pops us telling us that the comment is in the process of “submiting” before the comment appears on your site.

    It’s brief and then it is gone, so you might not be aware of it. Just thought I would point it out for you.

    Reply

    Oooh…I also just noticed that instead of saying “Please wait a moment”, it says “Please wait a comment”. Heehee.

    @B.E. Earl, yeah, that’s thanks to the shitty Engrish of the plugin developer. I’ve been thinking of going into the code for the plugin to fix it but just haven’t yet. It annoys the fuck out of me.

    Reply

    @Avitable, Yeah, I just saw that Faiqa’s site uses the same plug-in with the same shitty message.

    Reply

    @B.E. Earl, should be fixed now.

    @Avitable, Now fix the Social Security system! ;)

    @Miss Grace, you missed out – the deadline passed!

    @Avitable, Well. Fuck. My plan to spend more time sucking less just flew out the window.

    Okay, so, my boyfriend doesn’t have moobs, persay, but he does have freakishly long nipples. Like, long, pointy african nipples. Can I send you a picture? Does anyone even want to see that?

    Reply

    @Creepy Mommy, I don’t think anyone wants to see that.

  16. I’m not against carbs. I’m just against white carbs. Which means I’m an affirmative-action carb eater.

    Wait, was that off-color?

    Oh, Lord. I just need to stop.

    @Coal Miner’s Granddaughter, there are white carbs?
