IMHO, You Suck!

The Internet is a wild place where anonymous strangers, and sometimes close family members, butt heads and come to virtual blows over things that have little to do with them personally. While I find this odd, I too have been caught hurling insults at total strangers. I'm not proud, but that's the truth; some statements just drive me crazy-- and you too. Despite doing yoga, practicing meditation or taking Valium, several of the following statements will spark a vitriolic argument in almost everyone, while most of the others will produce little more than a shrug or a nod. Only two are indisputable. Guess which ones are which:

1. Anchovies are the best pizza topping.
2. Rottweilers are inherently dangerous and should be outlawed.
3. Snow is lovely and makes everything look so pretty.
4. New York City certainly has a lot of traffic.
5. Mitt Romney is an honest man and a good leader.
6. The typical suburban dining room serves multiple purposes.
7. Watching "Dancing With the Stars" is better than watching "Cops."
8. Morbidly obese people are gross and lack self-control.
9. Miniature schnauzers are cute but they bark too much.
10. Carbohydrates contain a lot of sugar and thus contribute to weight gain.
11. Jews have made the most contributions to science and the arts.
12. Red is the strongest color in the spectrum.
13. Without a college education, your chances of success are very small.
14. Goods made in China are inferior to those made in Italy.
15. Consuming more calories then you expend will make you fat.
16. Crime is highest in cities because of the concentration of minorities.
17. Jesus Christ died for our sins.
18. America is the greatest country in the world.
19. Bald men are still considered attractive, while bald women rarely are.
20. Barack Obama will not be re-elected.
21. Facebook "friends" are not really friends.
22. The only way to drink coffee is strong and black.
23. Children should be seen and not heard.
24. Maybe Hillary Clinton had a face lift in order to run for president.
25. Blogs are dumb.
