Whenever I see somebody drinking a "diet" soda I just assume they bought it for the taste, 'cuz that s**t's poison, yo.

on average it costs $233.32 to intentional gain a pound of muscle.
on average it costs $11.96 to intentionally lose a pound of body fat
on average it costs $5.42 to intentionally gain a pound of body fat
on average it costs $8.74 to intentionally maintain body fat between a range of + or - 5 pounds.

it costs $0 to eat slightly less/more
it costs $0 to do some push ups

i don't understand why people assume in order to change anything about themselves they have to pay money to do so.

of course i guess it helps the economy, getting more monetary circulation and everything.

just be patient and do it yourself, right?
I think for a lot of people who buy into gym subscriptions and dietary programs and infomercial DVD workouts and whatnot, it's more about the image that sort of thing projects than the actual result. Sure, anyone can manipulate the size and shape of their body any way they want to by paying closer attention to how they treat it, but that doesn't give you the opportunity to talk about how you tried x and y and finally found z and oh my god you should try it, it's a miracle product.

It's the same reason people order diet soft drinks with supersized burger joint combos. Coming off as health conscious is somehow more appealing than actually being it. Probably because it's easier.


I guess so.
I can actually see value in ordering diet drinks with lardtastic food, in that it's got to be some help in avoiding excess sugar; and instead filling yourself with fancy chemicals

and to your your point above, I'd rather have someone admit they who likes food and dont feel like dieting, then someone who is acting really try-hard about losing weight, while not even changing their life style.

But it's silly! If you really cared about cutting unhealthy s**t out of your life, you wouldn't be at the burger joint in the first place! xd Maybe some people enjoy the taste, but 95% of my overweight friends who do that speak with emphasis on the "diet" like they're expecting it to impress people.

Yeah, me too. Especially now that I know firsthand just how easy it is. I feel kinda bad for people like that, 'cause I get the impression most of them have been sold on the idea that there is a 'magic' solution out there that they only have to do for x amount of days and then they can go back to neglecting their body and it'll stay in shape because of this groundbreaking new pill/drink/electronic device that keeps you fit for you. After being fed so many of those short-term success stories (which, of course, never tell you what happens next if the person goes back to their old habits after getting off the product), I think the realistic approach seems ridiculously daunting to a lot of them. I remember thinking a pound a week was nothing and that I'd never get anywhere that way. I wouldn't doubt that people who buy into the whole 'new body in 90 days' sales pitch could feel the same.

At work, we found a "PLU" button that lets you type in codes for food items.
So far we found codes for Tiki Mugs, Hot Chicks, and even Puppets.
twisted Who knows what else there is to order!!

:UUUU
Can you spew out the poisons? Do you sweat them out?
Because then you'd be like a poison dart frog!
They eat mildly toxic ants, and once they eat a ton of them they're all like, "MY SWEAT IS MORE LETHAL THAN A 2-TON BASEMENT DWELLER'S."

You're my hero, now.

I harness them on a daily basis. It is how I do what is known as, 'badassery'. Those who survive the poisons are known only as 'The Insane'.

I wanna get a Motorcycle.
Somehow I'm not entirely sure if it fits my personality, but something about the idea....I feel like it'd get me another +5 Badassery points, and if it's done right, 7 B.A. points can go a looooong way.

In other news, my next big Minecraft project includes an AWESOME Clay-Warrior Colosseum. s**t's gonna be bitchin. cool
