EAT ONE VEGETABLE

Well it's only a concern if you're going to dislike having diabetes when you turn 45. If you're ok with that, then it's no problem.

Wait a minute... this is Nowell pretending to be John, isn't it? You scamp!

― I Am Curious (George) (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:21 (twenty years ago)

ally for real?

btw i wish you posted more i love you. sorry to hear your'e getting married.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:22 (twenty years ago)

hi john! i'm not getting married! i'd love a husband who i could feed raw sugar!

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:24 (twenty years ago)

oh and how could i forget the fritos.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:24 (twenty years ago)

sorry to hear your'e getting married.

wtf, dude?

― jaymc (jaymc), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:25 (twenty years ago)

haha yeah the word is "congratulations." nobody died.

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:26 (twenty years ago)

oh and also, cream soda. yes this is my typical diet.

i guess i used to be really paranoid about this but i got we shall all be healed for christmas and he keeps talking about white sugar my the spoonfull, cantelopes and grapes and watermelons, milky ways for breakfast and he turned out alright didn't he???

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:26 (twenty years ago)

dude i thought she was getting married???

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:27 (twenty years ago)

maybe, but he shrinks 3 inches a day. why don't you eat good things? even if you don't get diabetes a lot of other bad things can happen.

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:28 (twenty years ago)

that was a joke. i'm not ally.

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:28 (twenty years ago)

Well, my medical diagnosis mainly comes from experiences of my father and my uncle, who both developed diabetes in their 40s after years of eating truckloads of sugar, I mean I've seen them both stuff entire boxes of Ding Dongs, all of them at once, in their mouths to prove who could eat more of them. BUT my family has a history of blood sugar problems it seems (both my aunt and I are hypoglycemic) so it could be some kind of genetic inevitability aided by their poor, poor eating habits. I used to eat frosting straight out of the can so I can feel your pain here on wanting to eat nothing but total junk though.

Also, your love is very flattering but truly, they are right, you should eat a vegetable or learn to eat some fruit occasionally when you want to eat sugar. The other day I was at the grocery store and had the urge to bake one cake and decided that would be very poor indeed, so instead I made crazy stir fry with pinapples, molasses, orange juice, chili powder and chicken over coconut rice. Somehow this turned out pretty good and pineapples + coconut made me not miss one cake!

xpost yes I'm getting married! I also just died, will you people keep up!

― Allyzay Needs Legs More (allyzay), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:28 (twenty years ago)

Also you all should remember the story about the dude that Tom used to know or whatever the hell you want to call the dude, he gets tetchy about how one characterizes the relationship, it was not friendly and certainly not roommates or something to that effect, I don't know. Anyway the upshot was he ate only like cheetos and coffee or something like that for two months, nothing else, and got SCURVY. So you could give yourself scurvy! Maybe?

― Allyzay Needs Legs More (allyzay), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:30 (twenty years ago)

wait i thought fruit = sugar tho????

and yeah congrats etc ugh

xpost ally yes- i read that! and i did that! serioulsyl! well not for two months but a week, and it was i believe cheese pringles and water. no scurvy but massive sickness for a couple days.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:34 (twenty years ago)

i remember that story. was that guy a sailor and/or pirate?

― Emilymv (Emilymv), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:35 (twenty years ago)

Fruit is sugar but it's not the same type of sugar. I don't exactly know how it works, I'm no scientist but I know it's less harmful for you to eat a lot of fruit than it is to eat a lot of Ding Dongs.

― Allyzay Needs Legs More (allyzay), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:37 (twenty years ago)

Why does that sound excruciatingly dirty?

― Allyzay Needs Legs More (allyzay), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:37 (twenty years ago)

fruit is sugar but complex sugar. eat less processed sugar. you're going to die.

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:37 (twenty years ago)

That guy's website scared me. In his case too much sugar led to a weird chemical imbalance or something.

― Leon the Fatboy (Ex Leon), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:39 (twenty years ago)

Point: He's a Yankees fan. Scurvy's too good for him.
Counterpoint: Meh. He's one of god's creatures, I guess.

― I Am Curious (George) (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:39 (twenty years ago)

what did the guy do who offered up the infamous "twinkie defense"? didn't he kill someone?

― Emilymv (Emilymv), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:43 (twenty years ago)

why is it that you only eat sugar anyway? i'm interested to know. i couldn't do it. don't you think other things are delicious as well?

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:44 (twenty years ago)

i like butter and fat too hence cinammon cakes etc.

also lots and lots and lots of ice cream. massive portions with cookies and brownies sprinkled between. that's sugar i guess. but really sugar+ fat is the magic combo for me. and why not, it's evolution baby right??? i mean not in excess no but ... so i'm a fucking hedonist i guess. i like vegetables if they have high-fat dip included. filet mignon with a good sauce.

hmmm did any of that make any sense? beyond my comprehension at this point.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:47 (twenty years ago)

bacon cheeseburgers, which i ahve qualms about eating cuz i luv animals and factory farms suck major. aaand i think that covers my diet in total.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:49 (twenty years ago)

where do you find vegetables with high-fat dip INCLUDED? apparently genetic engineering has gotten way out of control.

― Emilymv (Emilymv), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:49 (twenty years ago)

but i mean my point is it's ok to eat this stuff when your'e 20 right??? it's later that you have to slow down. and did someone up there say j0hn darni333le is shrinking 3 inches a day?? a pity.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:50 (twenty years ago)

xpost theyre called veggie platters they sell them at grocery stores, they're scrumptious

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:50 (twenty years ago)

there are also equally delish fruit platters w/ high-sugar dip included

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:51 (twenty years ago)

well you can buy meat from a non-factory farm. but you don't even like vegetables that aren't dipped in something? what about sweet potatoes? this is bizarre to me.

xpost, i was joking about that also but it's pretty bad for your bones to eat like that. also, you should start changing your diet now! this is an emergency.

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:52 (twenty years ago)

Well it's "OK" if it's only a temporary life style choice but if you go on eating crap for too long (like more than say 6 months) you'll end up doing something horrible to yourself. At the very least, you'll give yourself bad skin unless you're super genetically blessed. And you'll destroy your energy level. Just introduce more of the fruit and veggie platters if you like those! The dips aren't really so atrocious for you, it's better than getting no fruits and vegetables.

― Allyzay Needs Legs More (allyzay), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:53 (twenty years ago)

death and obesity will soon arm wrestle for possession of you, john. and don't think heart disease doesn't want in on some of that sweet action.

― Emilymv (Emilymv), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:54 (twenty years ago)

yes CAITLIN l DO like sweet potatoes IF they are SMOTHERED in BUTTER and BROWN sugar

and i mean FUCKING SMOTHERED. have you ever had butternut squash..it's got all that shit in it and it's fucking fantasitc.

i have HORRIBLE and i mean HORRIBLE (as in ive never seen worse ever) skin so maybe that's why??? but i thought the diet-clears-bad-skin shit was bs? i've been eating like this literally all my life.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 22:57 (twenty years ago)

Dude, you pump yourself full of toxic waste every day. Your kidneys and GI tract can't process it all, so some of it oozes out through your pores, and the rest is just hiding in there turning into a tumor.

― I Am Curious (George) (Rock Hardy), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:03 (twenty years ago)

also what about multivatimins i have some but never take them...? are they magic drugs taht can compensate for no lowlevel food pyridamid intake whatsoever?

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:05 (twenty years ago)

sounds like PSEUDOSCIENCE to me (GEROGE). supposing it's not would that explain my hideously enlarged pores tho?? and when the fuck did sugar become toxic waste anyway?? and j0hn daniel11seems pretty clearcomplexioned...maybe that was just some character he was chanelling though how knows.

sorry to turn this to the even more revolting but if one is "suffering" EMERALD GREEN diarhhea nightly (past 3-4 DAYS at least) what oculd that be a sign of anyone know? nothing good i suppse but there's no pain or anything.

oh dear.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:08 (twenty years ago)

also: i once read that morrissey at nothing but chips and chocolate hence fell ill all the time but his skin is magnificient....ally you've been had baby.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:09 (twenty years ago)

ok now i'm eathign tacos and cheese that's healthy right? does alcholol give anyhine else the munchies? last time i got really drunk i scared down a fullsive bag of fritos in like 3 minutes and puked them all up in another 5...

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:26 (twenty years ago)

why did i put "sufferning" in scare quotes...i'm going to read more GR now whicn is, i'm quite sure now, the real lychpin of this madness.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:27 (twenty years ago)

Dude Morrissey has at least $7000 spare per year to spend on his dermotologist, come on.

― Allyzay Needs Legs More (allyzay), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:30 (twenty years ago)

organic and naturally occurring sugar is good for you. processed sugar, bleached sugar, corn syrup, fructose, all that stuff is crap and you're slowly poisoning yourself.

if you look at the ingredient lists on most junk foods, they all have like five different kinds of chemical sweeteners. that's a LOTTA sugar, dude.

― cathy berberian (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:36 (twenty years ago)

nb: as far as sugar substitutes go i think splenda actually tastes really good.

― cathy berberian (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:37 (twenty years ago)

Yeah I don't have a problem with splenda at all, it doesn't taste like you're eating dehydrated Diet Coke.

― Allyzay Needs Legs More (allyzay), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:40 (twenty years ago)

are you modelling your life after j0hn darn13ll3's or something? why don't you just stop eating this stuff? is this some kind of joke?

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:41 (twenty years ago)

i bake with it, i put it in my coffee. i think it tastes better than the real thing (baby).

― cathy berberian (Jody Beth Rosen), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:42 (twenty years ago)

i dunno i've always had a kneejerk antihippie reaction to that shit but who knows...i think it stems from my mom who only takes "all-nautral" meds or my stoner friend who think opium is a-ok because it's "god's creation" or some such shit.

yeah i also only eat processed stuff, and i KNOW that ain't healthy, frozen pizza bites last night, twinkies and other hostess goodies. but seriusly i thought that since i'm reasonably young it's ok? i rememebr some doctor saying you could survive for months on nothing but poptarts and bottled water...haven't but that one to the test yet tho.

i'm too lazy to fucking cook, is all.

xpost no it's just that the rwe shall all be healed diet rang really tue for me in some places!! and my point is, he's really healthy right? i mean you don't have to wrry about this shit from 17-21, i was figuring,

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:44 (twenty years ago)

but no i woudlnt' model my life after anyone's that would be kind of sick and pathetic and i coudln't handle it. but certianl ppl do somtimes fascinate me, we all get these odd obsessions, almost always fleeting. my latest is nellie mckay, obv.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:47 (twenty years ago)

i paid 2$ for an article about her last night. : /

drugs wearing off already if i'm sober and i read this shit i'll never return. brb.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:48 (twenty years ago)

what did the guy do who offered up the infamous "twinkie defense"? didn't he kill someone?

Yes, he shot Harvey Milk.

― KeithW (kmw), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:48 (twenty years ago)

btw not that opium is AOK but to thnk you can't be addicted to it is just sofucking ignorant.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:49 (twenty years ago)

isn't. AOK.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:56 (twenty years ago)

opium is AOK is what i'm trying to say, as long as you understand it's horribly addicitve. late 19th c is not taught much in schools at least not around here.

― John (jdahlem), Thursday, 6 January 2005 23:59 (twenty years ago)

― caitlin oh no (caitxa1), Friday, 7 January 2005 00:02 (twenty years ago)
