        what he's talking about - Remlik Oct 12, 09:32 8
        
        I know what it means. the phrase comes from p90x. They market it like it's a magic formula. -- nm - loosilu Oct 12, 09:35 7
        
        I think there's pretty good evidence that there's something to it. It may not be necessary to vary your work out day to day, but if you don't alter - pmb Oct 12, 09:38 6
        
        There's definitely something to it, but you dont need P90X to work different muscle groups different ways. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 12, 10:03 2
        
        and judging by Paul Ryan's photo shoot, he needs to add some leg exercises in there. -- nm - Reagen Oct 12, 10:05 1
        
        Leg exercises? Bah! -- nm - Tito Ortiz si Oct 12, 10:07
        
        true, but that's not "muscle confusion". -- nm - loosilu Oct 12, 09:42 2
        
        oh comon. you know that term was just a simple way to describe something, not a scientific fact. - tRuMaN Oct 12, 09:55 1
        
        that's exactly what I just said. :) -- nm - loosilu Oct 12, 09:56

  - well, obviously Obama hasn't helped her out, so.... -- nm - Andie Oct 12, 08:37 7
    - That's right. My daughter has been unfairly plagued by unemployment caused by the Obama administration. *vomits in the gutter* Now can I borrow some - Dina Lohan Oct 12, 08:40 6
      - It's weiird to think that the whole "Yup, she's gay" thing was not so long ago, and yet, so long ago now. -- nm - Reagen Oct 12, 08:41 5
        
        I think that's when she jumped the shark. Now she's made it clear that she's buy-sexual. She'll sleep with anyone who will buy her coke. -- nm - pmb Oct 12, 08:43 4
        
        Oh, that's funny. -- nm - David Oct 12, 08:52

Ben Affleck wants to do a full life story on Whitey Bulger and wants Matt Damon to star. - Mel Profit Oct 12, 08:12 11
