Lifestyles

These people advertise that if you use their services you can enjoy a "waterproof lifestyle." I'm not sure what that means, but it got me thinking about other lifestyles I'd or 'dn't enjoy.

a spam-proof lifestyle,
a stain-proof lifestyle,
an error-proof lifestyle,
a clothing-proof lifestyle,
an alarm-clock-proof lifestyle,
a technology-proof lifestyle,
a misinterpretation-proof lifestyle,
a hell-proof lifestyle,
a burnt-bread-proof lifestyle,
a diarrhea-proof lifestyle,
an under-inflated-balloon-proof lifestyle,
a hospital-proof lifestyle,
a fireproof lifestyle,
a debt-proof lifestyle,
a war-proof lifestyle,
... and lots lots more.

Thank you, Everdry.

And this fulfills my need to blog before too much time elapses between posts.
