50 million blinds recalled due to strangulation threat
50 million blinds recalled due to strangulation threat. While it is definitely tragic that some children have died, but do we agree with these extreme measures against beautiful window treatments? I, personally, totally agree. Blinds were evil and harmful to humans since their invention. And now they started killing kids?? And I think it is only the tip of an iceberg. I think we should recall all of the household items that have some kind of cord, sharp edge or make any kind of noise. Or even better, let's make this world a safer place and recall electricity. Can you imagine how many people have died from it since its invention a few years ago? Please do not hesitate to send your suggestions of items that should not be used due to their design flaws, I will take them into consideration and follow appropriate procedures to eliminate them from your lives. On a more serious note, my sincere condolences to childrens' families...

What is Sarcasm?
Sarcasm , a term coined by Dr. V sometime in 20th century, is the rhetorical device of using a characterization of something or someone in order to express contempt. It is closely connected with irony, in that the two are often combined in the same statement.
Intro
December 14, big day in human history. I am sure it is, for whatever reason, whatever event that happened 120 years ago. And I am about to add one more reason why it will change the way people think about everyday life, about love and caring, about... well you get the point. Well, at least those people who start following this blog. Because they are bored, because they are tired, grumpy or maybe just half drunk. Well, whatever it is, I hope a few words from me will cause your little heart to pump a little faster, put a stupid smile on your face or at least make you angry and get thinking. Welcome fellow people who can read. Oh, by the way, I forgot a disclaimer. So here it is: It's just an opinion, don't like it, don't read it. Google another Christmas gift for your in laws or your boss that you hate, watch another episode of whatever lame show you are watching with fake giggles in the background, walk your dog (and don't forget to pick up the crap afterwords, looks sexy when you hold it in a nice plastic bag) (Ooops, I think I just lost about 40% of readers who own dogs... ) or do whatever else you are into. Thanks for tuning in and remember, you heard it first from Dr. V.
