The fragility of life
My future in-laws, not that I have anything against them, have been very anxious lately. So anxious that they have been binning any Teflon-made product ever manufactured because a little birdy told them Teflon is, cancer-wise, the mother of all evil. So they are making sure that we spend the next waking minute dumping ours as well. I mean, after all, what else do I eat nowadays besides cutting up chunks of Teflon with a humongous steak knife from all my pots and pans and shoving them down my throat?
I don't even know where to begin when it comes to claims about carcinogenic products. Don't get me wrong; Teflon probably is the main cause of - I don't know - earlobe cancer. But then again, so are the over-consumption of vitamin C, public defecating and urinating, mobile phone, wireless broadband and laptop usage, excessive TV-watching, sitting on someone's gonorrhea or syphillis left behind on the public toilet seat and eating soup that is too hot. The next thing you know, air-breathing is one of them, at the rate Indonesian rainforests burn. Really, nowadays, anything and everything has the propensity to induce anomalous proliferation of cells at devastatingly frightening speeds resulting in detrimental biological effects.
Considering the number of people on Earth and the very many causes-of-cancer claims, it is highly likely they are participating in at least one or more of the said activities. You'd think that people would start dropping like flies, but unfortunately, humankind is still going at it like rabbits, procreating and birthing many copies of, I might add, tubby, red-haired pygmys whose main mission in life is to ruin yours.
But I digress. Back to the Teflon-coated pans. Ooo...would you look at the time - I'm going to bed.
