This thread is infuriating. That is all, carry on.

i think some of youse are looking for the thread where we believe in stuff fully supported by science

I like to think that if I concentrate, I will know what I need to eat to have balanced nutrition.

I had a friend who lived by this philosophy, that he body was giving her cravings for nutritional reasons & we should all just listen to our bodies to have a balanced diet. This lead to her regularly doing things like making an entire pot of caramel sauce & eating it with a spoon, or eating a bag of mini Babybel cheeses in one sitting.

Yeah that would be me if I tried that tbh.

You must also eat the red Babybel wax for a balanced meal

Oh she totally did that. She'd also make & eat batches of the salt dough you make for kids to play with. I am blaming the copious amounts of marijuana her body also told her to smoke.

i am always drawn to people like that, i believe the water in my brain is gravitationally attracted to the liquid molecules in their caramel sauce.

My brain has been telling me I need a constant supply of whisky lately, but I'm trying to tell it to shut up.

When I was an early adolescent, I used to believe that girls would deeply know if I had ... impure ... thoughts about them. Not as in: "he likes me, and he's unsubtle," but the actual content and/or narrative of the fantasies I had imagined. Poor, poor Jazmine D.;

I also imagined it was possible to share dreams; to meet up and hang out with other people in your sleep.

xp: That tangentially reminds me of how I used to think (ca. 5th grade) that teachers could tell if I had done my homework that morning, as opposed to the night before when it should have been done. I imagined that they had equipment that could determine how recently the pencil marks had been made, or whatever. I have somewhat of a history with giving authority figures entirely too much credit for their technological sleuthing abilities.
