Thank God the fun police are here to keep us from going out to diner.

This fraud Phthalates issue is manufactured bullshit from people who live off of taxpayers grants and need to make shit up out of thin air to justify their existence. Nobody is dying from eating out. No one is getting sick from this. It's junk science.

Just living exposes us to toxic substances. 

Sometimes we just have to ignore the hysteria and do what we want to do. If we paid attention to every alarm, we would just spend our entire lives cowering in a corner.

Then someone would come along and tell us cowering in a corner is hazardous to your health.  Pffft!
