Get the Clint Eastwood mug.Misconceptions about acne:
There are many myths about what causes acne. Greasy foods and chocolate are often blamed, but foods have little effect on the development and course of acne in people. Another common misconception is that dirty skin causes acne; however, blackheads and other acne lesions are not caused by dirt. Stress does not directly cause acne either. It is true, though, that anger and stress affect hormone levels and thus bodily oil production, which can cause acne. People of all ages and races can get acne. It is most common in adolescents and some young adults. 85% of people between the ages of 12 and 24 develop acne. For most people, acne tends to go away around the time they reach their thirties; however, some people in their forties and fifties continue to have this skin problem.
To see the effects of HORMONES on the skin, just look at a very large weightlifter/bodybuilder. If they have a lot of pimples on their back or arms or shoulders or even some on their face and they are in their late 20s or 30s or older, the cause of this is NOT puberty; but excess Testosterone which is proof that acne is directly related to hormone balance or imbalance. Women will sometimes get acne around the time of their menstrual cycle...a time of hormonal changes. You will likely notice that young pubescent males get far worse acne than girls. This likely shows that Testosterone is the KEY cause of this malady. Women have testosterone in their systems as well.

Bodybuilder: "Shit, I have a pimple."
Trainer: "A pimple...try another dozen dude....How much Testosterone Enanthate are you injecting a day?"
Bodybuilder: "1000mg a week guy....why?"
Trainer: "You are wasting your money; You only need 400mg and you are taking away from your impressive physique because you look like an acne cream 'before-shot' ad photo!?

Get the pimple mug.A movie (actually titled "Dead Ringers") directed by David Cronenberg telling the story of identical twin gynecologists - Elliot and Beverly, played by the ever boring Jeremy Irons - One is shy and normal per se, the other, a total whack job. They share the same practice, the same apartment, the same women. When a new patient, glamorous actress Claire Niveau - played by the almost do-able Genevieve Bujold - challenges their eerie bond, they descend into a whirlpool of sexual confusion, drugs, and madness including the creation of "Alien-like" gynecological tools.
"I watched "Dead Ringers" and left the theatre feeling like a psychopath for having not left earlier."

Etymology is the study of the origins of words. Some words have been derived from other languages, possibly in a changed form (the source words are called etymons). Through old texts and comparisons with other languages, etymologists try to reconstruct the history of words — when they entered a language, from what source, and how their form and meaning changed.
A word often misused and mispronounced 'entymology' which is the study of insects!

Etymology in action:
"The etymologist spent hours describing the origin of the word "nice" to the students. Unfortunately no one understood what he was talking about and were all in a deep slumber after 10 minutes."
"The dean spent weeks trying to track down the entymologist to give a lecture on the derivation of the word 'aunt.' When the entymologist finally arrived discussing the workings of one of the most interesting insects on Earth, the dean was promptly fired for being a fraud."

Get the etymology mug.NOT 1001 Knights. This has nothing to do with chivalry per se but a length of time; hence 'nights.'
The Book of One Thousand and One Nights - also known as The Book of a Thousand Nights and a Night, One Thousand and One Nights, 1001 Arabian Nights, Arabian Nights, The Nightly Entertainments or simply The Nights - is a medieval Middle-Eastern literary epic which tells the story of Scheherazade, a Sassanid Queen, who must relate a series of stories to her malevolent husband, the King, to delay her execution. The stories are told over a period of one thousand and one nights, and every night she ends the story with a suspenseful situation, forcing the King to keep her alive for another day. The individual stories were created over many centuries, by many people and in many styles, and they have become famous in their own right. Notable examples include Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves and The Seven Voyages of Sinbad the Sailor.

Scott: "Wrong again guy; it is '1001 nights' as in 'the evening.' This is not a reference to guys in armour on the backs of horses!"

Get the garnormous mug.Crap grown and sold by the Canadian Government to individuals requesting it who are in pain or have an ailment such as MS.
MS victim: "Dude, I just got on the list for some of that chronic medical marijuana."
Dude: "Error, you cannot use the word chronic in the same sentence as medical marijuana. The government obviously doesn't know where to get good enough seeds, or they don't want you to get too high so they sell you this shit. You could find a guy around here that could sell you a lot better shit than that for the same price."
