  • My philosophy is that I don’t want to become accustomed to super-sweet everything. Because then I will crave sugar. So artificial sweeteners avoid the sugar now but they make me accustomed to wanting more sweetness in everything, which will lead to more sugar consumption later.

    What do I drink? Espresso with 8oz milk (no sugar), or water, or unsweetened iced tea with maybe a splash of sweet tea on top to take away the dryness feeling. At least 5:1 ratio unsweet to sweet.











  • I remember the day that the Old Internet died for me.

    I saw my buddy was online on AIM, and I messaged him looking to shoot the shit. But he had just gotten a smartphone, and was logged into AIM on his smartphone, and it was not a good time for him to be shooting the shit because he was out and about doing stuff. So he was like “what do you need? I’m busy”.

    Which is not something anyone had ever told me on AIM before. If you were on AIM you were by definition bored and looking to shoot the shit.

    I guess we grew up too.
