fasting nonsense

Dry fasting. Seriously? Who in their right mind thinks this is okay? Oh sure, let’s just abstain from water, you know, that essential substance every living creature needs, because apparently some bright spark thinks it helps in ‘metabolic water’ production. Or whatever nonsense they preach. Why not just visit the Sahara without a canteen like this lovely idea. Brilliant planning.

What a great way to feel parched and miserable, all the while convincing yourself you’re on some epic spiritual journey, like come on. The only journey you’re on is the one to dehydration town.

Does anyone else picture the self-righteous grin of someone saying they’re dry fasting, clutching an avocado as if it’s some magical artifact that’ll ward off common sense? These folks might be *that* person at the party pointing at everyone’s drinks saying “Do you know what’s actually in that?” Well buddy, do you know what’s actually in life? Water. It’s called survival.

But no, let’s pretend we live by rules made up by some random guru whose last meal was probably after sunrise on Mars. Keep sipping your imaginawater and waiting for the metabolic revolution. Or whatever.
