THIS IS A READ-ONLY ARCHIVE FROM THE SORABJI.COM MESSAGE BOARDS (1995-2016). |

----------------------------------- |
I'd like to believe it would be drugged and drowning at the bottom of a pool ('nymph, in thy orisons, be all my sins remembered') but I'm pretty sure it will be from lung cancer or one of the hereditary cancers my family is prone to at some age way past I wanted to live to on a fixed income in a decrepit rental house reeking of cat urine. Next? |
But I probably won't. I don't feel a need to speculate on it much. When I was a teenager, I was hellbent to determine how I was going to go...I guess everyone goes through that stage, though. |
He goes downstairs to get us some post-coital Ben & Jerry's/& when he comes back/I've slipped into Oblivion w/a smile on my face. Sheila will simply refuse to die. Heaven's too small for her & Hell has too much food fried in beef tallow. And the ducks simply wd not tolerate anyone else looking after them. Nate will die in the act of screwing a 25 yr-old hottie when he's 87. Swine will die of a drug overdose in bed w/3 different women. He will be wearing a Bootsy Collins costume w/Parliment Funkadelic blaring from 16 different speakers. The women will be so devastated at his passing that they will shave their heads/don habits & depart to found a convent: The Sisters of Funkadelic Grace. Their numbers will grow astromonically as Swine's former lovers travel from around the world to join the order. Patrick & his wife will expire during an act of Tantric sex captured on videotape. Through prior arrangement/the tape will be posted at Sorabji.com/so all the rest of us can be jealous over how spectacular sex can be btwn married people who truly adore each other. Semillama will/of course/be buried in a rock slide during a dig. But his remains will be perfectly preserved & discovered by a grad student 600 yrs. later. Cleo will go to MIT/become a computer science pioneer & be the 1st to discover how to download the human brains onto the Web. She will create a website for Dave & Agatha/so they will effectively live forever in the virtual world. His Markness is also destined for immortality/as are all the best gods. He will visit The Sisters of Funkadelic Grace once a year to service them as a reward for their devotion/& to perform the Witchita Vortex (is that the title of that wonderful Glass piece?) for their annual fundraiser. Markus will be granted immortality by His Markness & become the bartender at the convent. He will entertain visitors with his stories of Swine's antics at Sorabjiland & serve divine concoctions made from more than 300 of the best world's best tequilas. |
If that fails, I hope to freeze to death while crossing Antarctica on dog-sled. Moments before my passing, I will radio someone to come and fetch my corpse. They will be instructed to dispose of my body in the Atlantic Ocean, but not before salvaging my brain. They will then be instructed to gift my brain to their choice of medical research facility. The researchers will then perform a grind-and-bind procedure on my brain, effectively grinding my brain into a paste and depositing equal amounts of the matter into test-tubes, where they will then pour radio-labelled ligand (perhaps serotonin? maybe dopamine?) in increasing concentrations into each successive tube. They will then study the binding properties of the ligand on my neurotransmitter receptor cells. Then someone will win the Nobel Prize and it will all be because of me. |
|
And watch how you spell my name, boy! |
Actually, i probably will meet Oblivion five minutes after beng proposed to by a brilliant, adorable woman. I will walk out of the bookstore in a euphoric daze and be run over by the "Buchanan in '08" campaign bus. My body will lodge in the steering mechanism, causing the bus to roll and fling Buchanan into a nearby leather dyke bar, where he will be viciously mauled by members of Sleater-Kinney and Melissa Etheridge's teenage daughter. My corpse will be dug up two weeks later and re-animated by Busta Rhymes, who will become a voudun priest. My body will star in a number of videos and be set on fire during performances, before embarking on a solo career. My body will refuse every request for an interview by Dick Clark. Everyone else who hasn't paid up to "Bob", will end up as cosmic fodder for the space gods. meanwhile, I will be resurrected as a Florida Swamp Ape, and leave behind a trail of awful smells and ashen-faced golfers before being Ruptured on X-day. |
You're all invited to make a big soiree out of the funeral, just tell my parents you're "old college friends". |
Fuck Oblivion. |
|
|
I would also like to die saving someone I love who took me for granted. Jumping in front of a bullet, maybe. my last words would be something sweet and selfless that would cause them to become consumed by guilt over never having treated me the way I deserve to be treated. That is also cruel. In spite of my cruelty, I think I'd make a swell angel. |
|
|
Wyclef Jean is a much more likely suspect. Mais, Touche! (inset accent grave/becuz I dunno how todothat). Yr demise for yrself was much better than mine. Plus it gives you a 2nd chance at living. Now.. if I can only start a new thread to get my own delimma resolved... |
|
|
i will probably be murdered. |
|
|
|
Gee--I used to _long_ for that to happen. |
|
Supplement? Anyone? |
Prozac is involved with serotonin re-uptake, and the tricyclic antidepressants like Elavil work on norepinephrine. |

I will die on August 8, 2048, probably from cancer, although there is a 5% chance of alien abduction, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I took the wealth test, and I should make my first million by 2017 (of course, the test didn't ask if I was an archaeologist, in which case I would never make a million dollars). I only scored a 29% on the Ass test. I liked my results on the un-telligence test: "Here is the custom report of your personality that led our team of geeks to conclude (with confidence) that you are resourceful, sly, and guaranteed to get away with everything: "The subject shows an astounding level of intelligence, and his sense of observation is one of his best qualities. Considering this, he shows a lot of potential, but that's only part of the equation. "Also, as much as we hate violence, an occasional mauling is one way to solve day-to-day problems like unpleasant coworkers or pesky door-to-door salesmen; he just isn't tough enough, sir, and he avoids any solution that involves violence. "Finally, the subject displayed a healthy (better than most net freaks anyway) sense of humor, a fair and productive sense of morality, and a barbaric self-confidence. The balance of these three traits is important; high levels of confidence, medium levels of morality, and a good level of humor make for the strongest individuals." Final Score: 76% Un-telligent" |
Alcoholism (12%) Cancer (9%) Alien Abduction (6%) Third Degree Burns (5%) Suicide (5%) I will die on April 18, 2056. |
|
And the Un-telligence report said this about me: The subject shows a very high level of intelligence, and her sense of observation is one of her best qualities. Considering this, she shows a lot of potential, but that's only part of the equation. "In addition, the subject exhibits brave tendencies, and that does a lot for her score. "But what concerns us most about her is her sinister and violent attitude. While we almost find it amusing that the subject would rather kill something than suffer a minor inconvenience, it effectively destroys her ability to survive tight situations. Our study suggests there is a 41% chance that she will end up in prison! "Finally, the subject displayed a great (and somewhat perverted!) sense of humor, a down and dirty sense of morality, and a hot shot self-confidence. The balance of these three traits is important; high levels of confidence, medium levels of morality, and a good level of humor make for the strongest individuals." Final Score: 73% Un-telligent How did you answer the "being hunted by a bear named Zeus" question, Sem? I had to think about that for a while. |
|
So, I took the death test again, and said I listend to Korn often. This only shaved a year off my life, and interestingly, reduced my chances ofdying with cancer by 10, and eliminated the alcoholism chance and drowning chance altoghether. it increased my chance of having a heart attack or being abducted by aliens, but decreased my chances of being in a horrible accident. Interestingly, I would be at risk of homicide and auto-fellatio as well. |
at the age of 56 years old. On that date you will most likely die from: Cancer (25%) Heart Attack (17%) Electrolysis (12%) Homicide (8%) Horrible Accident (5%) that's the best news i've heard in a long time. |
LOL! Sem -- damn, man! How come I never come up w/shit like that? You got any older brothers & are they funny as you? Now/lemme go take this test... |
September 3, 2022 at the age of 61 years old. On that date/I will most likely die from: Cancer (25%) Alcoholism (8%) (But nobody "dies' of alcoholism. It's cirrhosis that kills them. Or the car crash.) Horrible Accident (16%) Alien Abduction (7%) Suicide (6%) And if you're adbucted by aliens/how will anyone know if you died or not? Now, if I was abducted by Mulder/I might fuck him to death! |
I just had the skeeziest thought/in light of all this death & immortality talk. What if Donald Trump has himself cloned/so he can live forever & continue to annoy us all w/his gargantuan ego? What if he's already done it & the embryo is frozen in a test tube somewhere/waiting for him to get married again so he'll have someone to deliver & raise his Mini Me? Now I'll never be able to sleep tonite! |

R.C. - I have to fess up and say i stole that line from Steven Wright. |
SW is so cerebral... & surreal the same time. Never ha-ha-guffah funny. But really fucking funny. Esp. when you're buzzed. He shd have Seinfeld's success. I never see Wright anywhere anymore. |
i do hope i live to be an old lady. i definitely want to achieve old bathood. i'll be one of those crotchety, abrasive, ancient, toothless old bitches who whacks strangers w/ her purse, speaks only in gibberish, & wears bizarre clothing. i'll also commit public acts of homicide to get my senior citizen discount. i always thought it'd be kinda cool to be old & still con young boys into screwing me. on my 70th birthday, i'd like to take somebody's virginity. i used to say i'd do that on my 100th birthday, but now i've taken the goddamn death test & know i'll only get to live into my 70s. i'd like to die either in bed or at the beach, surrounded by the people & things i love, w/ a head full of hallucinogens & some righteous music playing. if somebody can give me a decent orgasm before i die, that'd be swell, too. i want the people hanging around my deathbed to cut me plenty of slack because i'm dying & indulge my every insane whim. after i croak, i want some kind of outrageous memorial built to me (like, say, the fucking taj mahal). my husband has already told me the epitath he wants on his tombstone: "WISH YOU WERE HERE." i'm probably having it put on mine, too. |
April 12, 2055 at the age of 84 years old. (that's too damn old) On that date you will most likely die from: Cancer (23%) Alien Abduction (14%) Homicide (9%) Drowning (7%) Auto-Erotic Asphyxiation (6%) Third Degree Burns (5%) lcoholism (5%) i definitely thought homicide would be higher on the list. also, cancer will be cured long before i turn 84, so that wipes out the first option. alrighty then. that's better. |
as I left my friends' house last night, the lady gave me a week's worth of prozac. I said thanks but no. today I am going to climb a hill in the sunshine and get a few rolls of film developed. tomorrow I think I am going to get a visa card and plan to charge two big things I've wanted to do for a long time. I know this sounds like a mistake, but it is not. |
|
i'd like to point out that so far nobody else had auto-erotic asphyxiation on their death list. though nate probably would. |
Note that he has been conspicuously absent of late... |
|
I would like to point out that death by auto-fellatio(on my list) is probably more embarassing then auto-erotic asphyxiation. Does anyone know if that even works on women? |
|
|
you look mighty nice in those tight jeans. uhh... what were you saying again? |
i was hoping for 45. cancer was number one for me, too. auto-erotic asphyxiation was number four. i obviously need to start jerking off with the leather belt more. |
|
|
|
I would guess autofellatio is possible on women--autocunnigulus, perhaps? But she'd have to be really flexible. |
Hi, swine. |
|
bitchtest - 24% lovetest - 65% asstest - 62% wealthtest - I'll be worth a million when I'm 40. sex test - I'll have sex with 19 people (total). 14 of them will be girls. unintelligence - 67% (is that 67% stupid?) purity - 73% |
|
|
|
these kinds of quiz's I like. Why can't they give quizs like this at my school?? |
|
I went to sleep before midnight last night! Sorry - I went to BED before midnight last night. I think I deserve a round of applause. |
|
cancer31%,alcholism18%,heart atack 7%,overdose5%.I see I am 56% bitch,that almost scared me. |
i will go this way, my wife will die of a sudden anurism (spell?), tragically, tell tale story, she went peacefuly and painlessly, I will be so distraught, I plunge into a downward spiral, quiting my job, drinking every waking hour, taking pills and otherwise letting go with life, self pity, regret and pain will consume me......eventually leading me to OD on muscle relaxers and cheap whisky, dead in my living room, naked, cock in hand, cats at awe and hungry, the house will not stink, no, it will smell of her...........and me, of us, it will smell like our room after sex, thats it, after sex, that smell that seeps from your pores when you fuck like mad, not a one shot deal at a party, I am talking about FUCKING, the kinda of fucking that reeps beautiful children such as dave and agatha's offspring ......they will never wonder about me, or how I died, it will be a given, people will not be surprised, they will never ask why...i was a self loathing bastard in love, they will find my camera, they will process the remaining 112 rolls of film, in a steel box with processing instructions. they will see documentation of my destruction, it will be revered as one of the most intimate and personal photo essays of all time, depicitng a man heart broken to the point of disbelief, it will be featured at MOMA, LACMA, The Getty, The Pompideu and at other fine museums world wide....THIS is how I will go, and they will take the proceeds from the estate sale and the photographs and launch both me and my wife in a capsule out to Nova quadrant............ |

So, when did Philadelphia start thinking it was Detroit? It didn't even mention ECW. If it did, i might begrudge them the attitude. |
Though I must say I hardly ever go into the city, except to see a movie (at two theatres, blocks from each other, right on Penn's Landing) or to go to a show (also in the same neighborhood and nearby South St.) I admit I'm a poseur. (But I was born in the city...that's something, right?) So, ummm, will I lose what pittance of street cred I have for asking what ECW is? |
Extreme Championship Wrestling - no disqualification, and it's alright to use stapleguns against your opponent. Still, when yuor city's nickname is the "City of Brotherly Love" it can be hard to establish a reputation for being tough. It would help if your inner core looked like it had been bombed out as well. But you can show me all the cool things in Philly when i come out in April, right? i would offer to reciprocate, but there's very little that's cool about Wisconsin. Except for the Onion. |
Our motto is now "Philadelphia, the city that loves you back." No joke. You'll see it in the airport. What cool things? Don't look to the Sixth Sense for a good picture of Philly: those were all the nice parts. It's ugly and frightening up in the north side. A friend of mine from high school went to Temple U., and I haven't heard from her since, and I'm sure it's not a coincidence. I'm hoping my beloved Firewater will be up and touring around that time...you'd have fun at one of their shows, I'm guessing, and I know *I* would have fun... Other than that, there is the Mutter Museum (weird medical equipment and specimens and freaky things like that...I've always wanted to go), and the above-mentioned Franklin Institute, which is just cool. There's South St. but that stopped being a good place to hang out in high school (sorta like the PA equivalent of Haight-Ashbury, but not as...intense). Though it's a good place to watch people. Ummmmmm....I don't know what else. I'll have to do some research. |
Wait, that's been done. Fuck |

17%, only saw part of the ass. You can expect to die on: March 12, 2050 at the age of 74 years old. On that date you will most likely die from: Cancer (33%) Alcoholism (19%) Third Degree Burns (9%) Alien Abduction (8%) Suicide (5%) Auto-Erotic Asphyxiation (5%) Heart Attack (5%) |
(I am a ghoul. You have to understand that if you're going to spend any time in my company.) |
I'm gone on March 25, 2015. Cancer (31%) Heart Attack (23%) Drowning (9%) Alien Adduction (8%) Auto fellatio (5%) I figure if I lose 30 pounds, stop smoking and drinking coffee I will probably die at a later date doing something I will enjoy :0) |

you'll die at 88 maybe it's bad news because i never wanted to live that long. |
Love Song for Stephen J. Gould Fighting the good fight in his own geeky way a method to his madness (it's a wonderful life) Doesn't wear a gun or some stinking badge got time on his hands (it's a wonderful life) I've taken the measure of this man I know that you'll understand I've taken the measure of this man Stephen J. Gould, Natural Historian Thank you. Thank you very much. |
you'll die in an argument with a being from another planet? jeezus, some lifeforms are just quick-tempered. |
As far as the ass test went, I got a 29%. |
And Margret, I say yet again, you are so cool. |
|
i think they're wrong though. |
|
"Dread Lord of Ghouls" - what are you trying to do, make me go and pull out my Bauhaus albums and listen to them in the dark? |
|
My favorite line went something like this (in response to the idea of giving Duckman an unlimited supply of an aphrodisiac): "That'd be like giving a barrel of peanut oil and a cub scout troop to Michael Jackson." I literally fell off the couch. |
"The Museum's collections include over 20,000 objects, including fluid-preserved anatomical and pathological specimens, medical instruments, anatomical and pathological models, items of memorabilia of famous scientists and physicians, and medical illustrations. Come visit us today!" Oh, boy! Oh, wait. Note that it closes at 4 pm every day. This may be a problem for me...what about you? |
|
To tell the truth, I am more looking forward to hanging with you than I am to the conference. This one always tends to be really light on anything relating to histroical archeology. I may be scouting around for the next job there, though. I'm going to go look at that webpage. |
|
Like on Thursday. I was talking to the woman who supervises me at work and she asked me if I planned to work for her in the summer. I told her, "No, I need a real job." It took me about 20 minutes to realize that wasn't a nice thing to say. But then I didn't know if I should apologize: what if she wasn't insulted by it in the first place? What if she was but had forgotten about it already, and my apology would just bring it up and make her feel bad again? So I didn't say anything. I still feel kind of bad about it. |

Plus, any alledged keenness you may detect is due to the fact that I have ample time to reflect upon and edit my words here. Most unfortunately, I do not have that option in real life, and I usually rely on the psychic links I share with my associates to fill in the stuttered pauses between all my words. Your assignment: spend the meantime boning up on your ESP. That said, I tried watching Duckman twice and didn't like it all that much. I do love the Tick, though. Is that going to be on on Sundays? |
I have like 8 tapes of christmas cartoons and this year Tape Six got caught in the VCR and ripped apart. That's the one with the Tick's christmas cartoon where the Tick thinks he killed Santa. I almost cried when the thing broke. |
|
I go to my parents' house once a week, and that's the only thing I ever feel like watching. |
|
in fact, you are the shit and you know it. if you ever let on to anyone that this is anything but the truth, you suck. now don't suck. be good. |
|
|
|
i made the sorry mistake of loaning my four vhs tapes filled with saturday morning episodes of The Tick to my old housemate, who now lives in Boulder, Colorado. he said he was going to bring them back when he came to visit in december, but he conveniently "forgot" them. bah. i feel funky, monkey. |
A few months later, they got married. Coincidence? |
I sure do wish I were allowed to LOL. |
|
|
|
ha^1- Not exceptionally funny, but i have the feeling that you intended for it to be ha^2- Still just being polite ha^3- That got a chuckle ha^4- This is mildly amusing ha^5- Funny enough to laugh at but still not an out loud laugh ha^6- Laughing out loud. This could be replaced with an LOL. It would be proper. ha^8- Side splitting funny. ha^10- Give me time to roll around on the ground and then a couple more minutes for recovery ha^42- I'm wetting myself! |

Besides, 28 Days was an okay movie and was it? though a fantasy or an accurate portrayal? I would like to add to the above description of my timely demise (posted Feb 27 2000) that now two years later (and presumed dead you moron) I really died when someone on these boards took me seriously. That's always the kicker ain't it? When somebody's fantasy gets taken as the whole truth. Life isn't worth living after that, unless you're a goat. |
December 21, 2053, at the age of 71 years old. On that date you will most likely die from: Cancer (29%) Alien Abduction (16%) Homicide (10%) Alcoholism (10%) Heart Attack (8%) Third Degree Burns (5%) Horrible Accident (5%) |
at the age of 61 years old. On that date I will most likely die from: Cancer (29%) Heart Attack (14%) Electrolysis (10%) Alien Abduction (9%) Alcoholism (6%) Homicide (5%) In reality, it will be next year, and it will most likely involve being hit by a hot air balloon. |

Most of mine lived into their 80's at least. |

today i'm most likely to greet oblivion with open arms due to an incredibly painful ear infection. or 106 degree heat. or death by 2 year old. |
today i may greet oblivion due to sheer joy. this blog is one of the most crazy and exciting things i've read ON THE INTERNETS in a long long time. i can't stop reading and re-reading some of things she writes. i love it because she uses a lot of curse words, and she uses words like "sinister" to describe edible things, things that many people consider to be food. i love that she is unimaginably extreme about how she defines food and what she eats, totally unapologetic, fearless, and blunt. i crave bluntness, here in this southern wasteland of polite hypocrisy. when i first stumbled upon her blog after intermittent research on the primal/paleo lifestyle, and read a few blog posts, i had this sensation of tripping on acid, of realization. after experimenting for about a week on a diet of wild caught fish and 100% grass fed ruminant proteins and fats, a few avocados, green herbs, salt, black peppercorn, homemade bone broth, and leafy green veggies cooked in butter from 100% grass fed ruminant milk or raw coconut milk, OH and a serving of fruit on days right after a workout... i feel even moreso like i'm tripping on some sort of drug. in a good way. i don't feel right, but i feel like i may be eating my way closer to overall well-being than ever before. if i die, it won't be disease, it'll be blissfull madness and a belly full of animal fat. i think my sum of my life experiences in relationship to food and movement totally primed me to grok her philosophy, whereas most people today likely consider it (to quote my beloved) "totally unreasonable in the context of most people's american lives". it's so totally absurd. i'm curious as to how long i can last like this. if crazy blunt peggy can do it for six years, i bet i could do it for six months. |
|
and raw seafood! and live squid! i am downright giddy just thinking about her eating live squid. |
"We should not fear pathogens. We should simply be stronger than them. I turned my head to fear, then, and followed a new path to health. I consumed raw dairy and a few different fermented raw juices which I made at home. But the most important thing I did to avoid illness from raw meats and seafood was to avoid modern foods, so as to keep my internal terrain undesirable to invaders." omygodohmygod! i am in love. |
|
|
cheeses this week shipped in surreptitiously and illegally from England where such is legal. I love Sarah even more now. Whoa...live squid not. |
aww. well, and the thing is, it's not eating of raw meat, seafood, and say, squid, it's not for a show. lots of people do it for the show, or experimentally. she is doing this long term, for health, and she mostly has been eating raw foods and feeding her daughter raw foods in secret. because the vast majority of americans would scorn such behavior. imagine how long it's been since she's *enjoyed* dining in a restaurant with a friend. i mean, that activity is absolutely central to american social life. i remember when i was bodybuilding in hawaii, and i had absolutely no social life around food or drink. if someone wanted to hang out, it would have to be surfing, or hiking, or walking, or swimming. or coming over to my house to play a board game. in my life at that time food did not have any fun value whatsoever. everything i ate for that year was simply fuel, with a distinct purpose. i wasn't terribly happy about it half the time, and i sure did miss food as an activity of enjoyment, but then again, i was very very happy about reaching the goal at that time. oh my. it's so exciting to consider what could happen; what could be fixed, and what cannot. |
|
it's legal to buy raw milks in texas, but it has to be sold directly from farmer to consumer. the closest farm from where i live where one can get raw milk is a 90 minute drive. the next closest is about 110 minute drive. one way. that's too much to pay in gasoline for a gallon of milk. there is an underground raw milk network here in austin, and i'm trying to get in on it. i used to use the phrase "milk drinker" as a derogatory term to describe a type of person. in the last week i've test tasted two half-cup servings of unhomogenized low heat pasteurized jersey cow milk. it wasn't terrible. our sitter lives in the country, about an hour from here. she's bringing me raw goat milk tomorrow. but it's not like legit. i don't even know if it's grass fed but i'm not sure what else one would feed a goat. recently i've ordered grass-fed ruminant and fowl proteins from missouri. it was slightly less expensive per pound (and free shipping!) but not any better tasting than the grass-fed meat i've purchased off the meat truck here in atx. my next bulk meat purchase will be from a local meat share. i missed the last kill they had by just a week or so... |

...and accidents happen. But the ones I'm not in love with are all the nice guys. Hrm. But the serial killers that are able to get away with it are all baby-faced, as is this one. Hrm. |

I am starting college next week to take a course. I am glad moonit looking forward to visit the states next year, but I lives near Chicago and wished her and her husband the best of fun! |
|
|
It didn't taste like anything really, but that still tasted better than when I freaked out and cooked it. And I haven't gotten sick from the raw eggs I ate a few days ago. Experiment! |
I like to compare eBay as to AOHell.. Hi Google! |
that is so epic. i wish i had the guts to try eating raw ground meat. it's not disease i'm afraid of, it's the texture. ugch. i tried eating a rare ny strip and just couldn't get down more than a few bites. i had to cook it to about medium rare. but apparently that still counts, nutrition-wise! i could eat raw eggs if i wanted to. eggs are one of my favorite foods ever. i don't want to eat them raw because i love so much how they taste cooked. i think at least eating fried eggs over easy may also bestow some of the nutritional value of eating them raw. maybe? don't know. i need to add more veggies back in. this past week too much fat and protein. sitting here trapped at home by napping kids; wish i could run up to the store for some broccoli and red bell pepper. craving. instead i'm just gnawing on romaine leaves because that's all i have at hand. |
I used to make salads for a while, but they're such a ginormous pain in the ass. Meat, fat and fruit. Used to include the candy food-group. Raw eggs taste like nothing, the only things I really *like* eating are made of wheatflour and sugar, so if I'm not eating that I might as well drink it out of a glass. I added flaxseed oil to it, it tastes super gross to me. Half a piece of bacon helps with that. *grin* |
it is so crazyass! i cannot get enough. what about just taking a head of broccoli, say, and snapping off the tree tops, putting them in a bowl with a little water, nuking them for 3 minutes, drizzle (or pour!) olive oil over the top, squirt some lemon on there, sprinkle some salt, and voila! easy, tasty, edible. bacon fat + kale = love adding salt and fat makes vegetables enjoyable. |
