Rant for AtheneMiranda: Pro-Ana Communities

Okay, all you idiots out there who think anorexia is "cool" so you join a pro-ana community? Sit down and shut the fuck up.

Anorexia kills. There's a very short list of mental disorders that kill and, guess what, you picked one. Not only does anorexia kill while you're anorexic, it can cause such damage that it kills you after you've put in the hard work and effort and recovered.

Anorexia is a control thing. It's about people who feel so out of control they try to control the one thing they can, only the real truth is, they can't! You see, bodies require fuel, and fuel for bodies is called food. When you don't give the body fuel, it starts eating itself. Yup, you guessed it, your body is a cannibal. Welcome to nature, kids, she's a bitch.

The treatment for anorexia, by the way, starts with one of the most humiliating things ever, especially for an anorexic. People take away your choice over your food. Yup, you get put in a mental hospital and they force feed you until you're taking in enough food for your brain to start functioning properly. See, anorexia not only has the potential to kill you, it can and will make you stupid. Brains need feul, you see... and without fuel they stop working. And then you get lots and lots of lovely therapy about your control issues and self esteem! Which may or may not help. So, this thing you got into becausde it seemed "cool" has now taken over your life. Congratulations!

Mental illnesses are not fun. They're not something you do for a lark and then set aside when you're bored. When you start fucking with your brain you start fucking with the core of your being and your ability to be a person instead of a series of random reactions.

I would recommend being more careful.

Rant for Learan: Pro Catholic Fanaticism

(Feel free to smite me at the end, Romuel. Heeee.)

Fanatical Catholics are teh shiznit. Their weekly tithes go to support thousands of charitable programs around the world that bring food, medicine, and comfort to people in need. Following in the footsteps of Jesus Christ, they practice tolerance, acceptance, and peaceful action. The amount of time they spend studying the Biuble and the analysis of the Bible by Church leaders is impressive, and with the large support structure they have it's easy to find people to discuss what they find in this study. Through regular confession, fanatical Catholics acknowledge who they have wronged and where they have faltered in their behavior or path and then do penance for it. This leads to a clean moral mind that allows for more flexibility and compassion.

Hug your local fanatical Catholic today!

Rant for Soulkry: Hotdogs 10, Hot dog buns 8? WTF?

This is why monopolies are bad.

See, the hot dog makers and the hot dog bun makers have obviously conspired against us, the innocent consumers, in order to lead to buy more and more hot dogs and hot dog buns until we transform into them!

See, you go to the store and buy hot dogs! Yum! But hot dogs need to be put on something, so you buy buns! Lots of buns! But then your numbers don't add up, so you end up buying eight packages of hot dogs and ten packages of buns just to have an even number!!!

It's a conspiracy, I tell you.

And then you force-feed people hot dogs for the next two weeks and everyone starts avoiding you in the summer.

It's all the hot dog's fault!!!
