Listen, bro. Bro. Okay, listen. Okay? Listen. It's called ketosis. You eat a lot of hot dogs, and like, your body changes. Because of the hot dogs. Okay?

I have multiple coworkers on the keto diet. One has lost like 50 pounds, and is keeping it off, so far. Another, who is like 5’8” and 340 pounds, is still 340 pounds. At work, he’s sticking to the diet. I don’t see him cheat (well, didn’t see him cheat - I think he’s slipping, lately), but he seems to be spinning his wheels. Then, I talk to him about the diet, and the picture clarifies. He doesn’t count calories, he doesn’t weigh himself, he will argue endlessly about how one calorie of fat requires less effort to burn than one calorie of carbohydrate, because of how ~his body~ processes it, he thinks the body can absorb infinite amounts of vitamin C as long as you are [doing some obscure diet thing], and so on. If he would just cut the bullshit and apply his diet discipline to reducing caloric intake, rather than chasing fads (he also fasts, and somehow loses no weight), he’d probably be shedding pounds.

Not technically a SomethingAwful saga.

One of the funniest examples was back in the day when the PYF Boobs and PYF Butts threads existed, fyads started spamming the threads with pictures of women with the heads photoshopped off or literally nothing but the aforementioned body parts.

Don't be mean to my chicken named Megatron you 11 yr old piece of poo poo

Act I: Goons rooster fucks a chicken named Megatron so much it tears a hole in its wing. Goon patches up hole, tells their 11 y.o. niece to hold Megatron. Niece sets the chicken down. Rooster runs over and fucks it some more, tearing the scab off. Goon is furious at niece.

Act II: Twisty goes into chicken thread with a question about chickens, gets probed for being a fyad.

Act III: fyad thread annihilates the chicken thread

quote:

in the case of ten inch rape hole versus megatrons leg, the defendant will be tried as an adult, due to how 11 years old is obviously old enough to know about a) the ground b) chickens raping c) sex wound d) responsibility e) samsung . sentenced to permanent not having to hang around screeching white bug birds in poo poo hole backyard with autistic single aunt *bangs two smart phones together*

quote:

its important to learn early in life that if you put something down on the ground an animal will gently caress it to death immediately

quote:

well fellow cluck heads i finally got to find out which is stronger the bonds of family or the bond between adventuretime the roosters chicken penis and megatrons ravaged cloaca and suffice it to say McKynzie the neice has been weighed in the balance and found wanting

quote:

i went to extreme lengths and troubles so that we could play angry birds together in the back yard eithout the interference of police or filipino gamblers, and you repay me with your complicity in the vile sex rape of the leader of the motherfuckeing decepticons? as far as i'm concerned, we are no longer family.

Weird Twitter is almost entirely former FYAD posters, just like how the Dirtbag Left are all LF posters and Let's Play literally started here.

Driving away or outright banning funny and talented groups of people while failing to capitalize on them while they're here is the one thing this site does better than anyone else.

is it really that unfair to say that the existence of the joose saga (for example) is an incredibly goddamn strong deterrent to ever trying phenazepam

like, that's the sort of thing i'm referring to; forums like TCC basically mean that when people do decide to do really dumb poo poo with drugs or try esoteric drugs with lovely effects, the consequences get broadcast to the world instead of only one idiot learning from it. i wouldn't call it the absolute most important angle of the subject, but it's not like it's totally useless.
