A controversial health-improvement regimen of unproven worth/efficacy that entails either:
1. Yelling at everyone around you to help decrease your own level of stress (naturally, this practice drastically **increases** these other hapless mortals' OWN stress-levels, but this is for medical purposes, so those folks' feelings and emotions don't matter during this period, right? Right???)
2. Watching one or more Kevin Williamson flicks to remind yourself of how bad things *could* be, letting you feel better that you aren't involved in "extreme" situations like that.

Knock, knock...
Who's there?
Kudu.
Kudu, who?
Kudu possibly fill up my canteen, and drop in an ice cube or two?

My girlfriend and I always make sure to "per-exhaust" our reproductive organs by sharing a major bouncy-bouncy immediately before heading over to da buffet-table, so dat neither of us risks having a noisy/messy smorgasmbord when we survey that luscious-looking array of tasty culinary delights.
