F*** Salt!

Before I get ahead of myself, I might as well explain the title of this blog.  Obviously, I would never myself curse this, the holiest of minerals.  Rather, the phrase, "f*** salt" comes from the uber-popular "Tourettes Guy" series of Internet videos.  How popular is he? Let me put it into perspective: as of now, the first Youtube video returned by a search of "Tourettes Guy" has around as many views as there are grains of salt in ten cups.  (The video can be found here.)

As for the quotation in question, here is a clip showing nothing more than that blasphemous moment (Warning: he says the... F-word!!!):


Why would I choose this phrase as the title of my blog?  Perhaps I was feeling tongue-in-cheek; perhaps I was drawing attention to the adversity faced by salt lovers everywhere; perhaps the potential sexual nature of the phrase fascinated me... (Actually, no.  Not the last one at all.)

However, I cannot help but call to mind a certain someone who did have sexual relations with salt... and this was the result:
