Question: Do sites that share images like "SHARE IF U AGREE" get some kind of ad revenue based on shares and likes?

They get exposure so more people will like them so they'll be worth more to advertisers. It's an indirect benefit.

Well no, they just crouch in a corner, throw a bucket over the head of whoever's inside and then case the house.

Also that's not where your uterus is, if you're not pregnant. Your uterus is inside your pelvis. It's not touching the front wall of the abdominal cavity; it's behind the pubic bone.

Every time someone I know shares a article about healthy eating and such, i check it out, and then I find that that the "sources" are all Natural News and such sites and full of garbage about PESTICIDES and EAT ORGANIC!

I feel wrong commenting on them, pointing out the suspect sources, but these people are legitimately trying to lose weight ( as am I) and I don't want to call them stupid. It's a hard thing, and people can end up looking for anything that can help. As I've said, though, its not harmful, just makes you pay more for food, and it may help you think more about what you eat.

Yeah man. I draw pretty much the same line. Almost every successful diet works because it makes a person think twice about what gets shoved in the pie hole. If someone is trying to get to a healthy weight and is on some kind of bullshit paleo retardfest, I just keep my mouth shut and let them get under 2000 calories or whatever however they manage to get there.

I will call people out on that same kind of bullshit if they're spreading misinformation and/or harrassing other people, though.

Paleo is my favourite diet because people get so psyched about it but will never give up booze. There were no stills in the paleolithic era.

I like the one where rice and pasta are "free foods" and you can eat as much of them as you like. Because no one ever gained weight gorging on carbs!

Some of the gals in my department were going on about this "cleanse" where you drink the special "cleanse" juice or whatever and stick to the diet part you lose a bunch of weight. I mentioned as diplomatically as I could maybe the "cleanse" part is sort of a Dumbo Feather... but you know if that's what works best for you.

In the weightloss thread in YLLS many successful goons tell stories about people in their life who quiz them about their "secret"...then refuse to believe that it's nothing more than calorie control.

The diet industry has drilled it into people that you have to follow some patented method, or drink special shakes, or cut out entire food groups entirely, and the idea that you have the power to just do it on your own with 5 minutes a day of reading the drat label and taking notes or punching numbers into a free website just doesn't make sense to them.

Goons also eat loving coagulated beef fat as a snack along side a pack of bacon with eggs fried in the grease for breakfast. I'm surprised Goons aren't en masse having heart attacks considering they buy into the same amount of dietary weird poo poo as normal people do, they just stick to it longer.

There's a reason low carb threads don't survive long in YLLS, most goons in the regular weight loss thread have pretty sensible diets

"Why do we play sports and what do popular sports throughout the ages tell us about culture and the human condition"

It was actually kind of interesting when talking about antiquity but modern sports are just boring to contemplate about. I had to sit through student presentations about hockey stick history. Seriously. Oh well, it was an easy 3 credits.

Because he's a lying racist rear end. Him and his husband.

90% the latter. Anyone who has done the research on it knows that it's not a very good "Save the Earth" option because organic commodities can be much more carbon intensive.
