Friday Fun: The Shit Richard Says

OK, assuming you’ve seen a few of the “Shit X Says” videos on YouTube, here’s my Friday afternoon fun over the last hour. It’s 2 minutes.

I was a bit bored, OK? Hopefully you regular readers find it a bit amusing, if not cordially self-depricating.

After that, feel fee to watch Shit Barefoot Runners Say.

        Je viens de Montreal, la belle ville. Now living and working in NY though, in fact research and teach at one of those citadels of “grant-wh….”, c’est la vie (sigh…). Which is another reason I so enjoy your approach in this blog, apart from it speaking to my inner non-conformist Quebecoise ;-)

      That’s a real gem, Steve,

      You have to do a Shit Paleos Say.

    “That’s fuckin’ bullshit.” That and the face before are my favorites.

    You forgot to advise against GURUS

    Shit Paleos Say

    “You’ve been gaining weight? You need to eat more fat!”

    “You’ve been gaining weight? You need to cut down on the exercise, it’s throwing your hormones out of whack”

    “I can deadlift 135 pounds, so trust me when I say your form is terrible and you know nothing about strength training”

    “You run, and when you run you wear shoes, so that is two ways that you are crippling yourself and shortening your lifespan. If you want to be healthy don’t run, and when you are not running, do it sans shoes.”

    “The other day I felt like I was coming down with a cold so I ate the spleen of an Iguana, fixed me right up”
