2. I think someone already has

At least when matter (recs) and anti-matter (unrecs) meet they release a huge amount of energy.

3. What about this 30,000 calorie Christmas dinner?
Donna Simpson, who weights 292kg, sat in a reinforced metal chair, chowed down on the world's biggest Christmas dinner as she ate for two straight hours.

The single mother-of-two, from New Jersey in the US, tucked into two 11kg (25lb) turkeys, two maple-glazed hams, 6.8kg (15lbs) of potatoes - 4.5kg (10lbs) roast, 2.3kg (5lbs) mashed, five loaves of bread, 2.3kg of herb stuffing, three litres of gravy, three litres of cranberry dressing and an astonishing 9kg (20lbs) of vegetables.

After polishing off her enormous main course, she still had room for dessert and ate a "salad" made of marshmallow, cream cheese, whipped cream and cookies.

8. Obama offered to buy members of the press a "shave ice" in Hawaii.
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/40828118/ns/politics-white_house/

Obama asked the pool of reporters standing outside if they wanted any.

"Last chance. ... I'm buying." No one in the pool requested an ice and Obama paid $38.12 to the clerk behind the counter.

-------------

I'm thinking first we attack him for cozying up to the media, since they are corporate owned. Then we investigate whether he used federal funds in his payoff attempt, as well as for gifts to his family and supporters. Next we condemn him for patronizing one business in Hawaii when the whole nation is suffering. Then we see how much he tipped, and if it was too small we claim that proves he hates working Americans. If he tipped too much, we point out how he has no perspective on what real Americans go through on a budget.

And of course we can then recall that he ate basically the same thing in Mississippi, with Haley Barbour, proving he is a Republican who wants to rewrite Mississippi history. Then we criticize his blatant insult to New Orleans, where it's called "Snow Ball" and not "Shaved Ice," demonstrating his clear preference for rich tourist areas that cater to the wealthy over poor urban areas known for their poverty.

Then we accuse anyone who doesn't hate Obama over this a "fan," or accuse them of being in love with him, and we accuse anyone who attacks Obama of being a racist and hating poor people, since snow balls (that's what they are, dammit) are usually a poor man's treat.

Further opportunities will arise as individual DUers weigh in, and we can attack them for all past posts and trends, or post our disgust with their sudden betrayals of past ideals.

And we haven't even figured out what flavor he likes yet.

9. The old debate
over vegetarianism/veganism/carnivor-ism always seems to work, I've noticed.

Throw in a little tid-bit about religion/atheism/agnosticism, and you should be set.
