Toasted Rant #1: Funny New Eating Disorder

Interesting Topic: PAY ATTENTION

So I'm driving down my street to pick up some Layne's (Layne's is a restaurant that serves the best chicken fingers in the history of the universe) and I said to myself, "Hey ToastyToast, why not listen to the radio and see whats going on with the world around you."

This was a great idea, and I happily tuned to one of the many quality stations that my city has to offer. I finally reach some station that was talking about issues with teens with eating disorders. I happily listened and jested because I find eating disorders hilarious (sue me).

The radio man talks about anorexia, Bulimia, and overeating. "Blah Blah Blah, nothing new," I said to myself. BUT THEN!!!

The radio host started talking about this new and upcoming "disease,"

My eyes DILATED, my mouth turned into an enourmous grin, I was shaking in delight at the thought of a new disease that I could find humor in.

Then the radio host said it,

I let out a loud howl!!! And I began laughing like a hyena!!!

DRUNKOREXIA!!!! LMAO LMAO LMAO ROFL ROFL ROFL LMFAO!!!


Well there you have it, the new and upcoming desiease "Drunkorexia," seriously WTF

where is society going with this shit, it was never a serious matter when people started throwing up or not eating to stay "skinny." But shit man, calling throwing up a disease is a little bit too much. Throwing up is a reflex and response to outside stimulus like a finger in the throat. Throwing up is a bodily function that is useful for humans to expunge poisons or other malicious items. Calling it a disease just tickles my pickle.

And when people don't eat, well shit... you have issues. It's not a disease, its a mental issue.

A disease is a disordered or incorrectly functioning organ, part, structure, or system of the body.
People who throw up and not eat will become diseased because of their malnutrition, but saying that the initial onset is a disease is unacceptable to me. I'm SORRY BUT NO!!!


Well, anyways before I rant more about such conditions. Lets talk about!: DRUNKOREXIA!! WOO!

Drunkorexia is self-imposed starvation or bingeing and purging, combined with alcohol abuse.

seriously............. pretty sad don't you think?

"Among those who are described as drunkorexics are college-age binge drinkers, typically women, who starve all day to offset the calories in the alcohol they consume. The term is also associated with serious eating disorders, particularly bulimia, which often involve behavior like bingeing on food — and alcohol — and then purging."

Statistics suggest that 30% of 18-24 year olds skip food in order to drink more.

Seriously? Whats wrong with society now. I used to think that it was ludicrous that people didn't eat, but now not eating in order to get super wasted is well.... beyond anything that seems resonable now. At the same time however, i'm not surprised; someone always finds a way to top anything and well here we go again. I wouldn't be surprised if the next craze is crackorexia where people don't eat and smoke crack all day. (You must realize that this is making me laugh to the point of severe abdominal pain, OH NO I HAVE A DISEASE PLZ HELP ME!! Laughing is giving me some sort of disease in my abs!!...)

All I know is that this just makes me angrier at society.

Alas, its whatevs, nothing will change anyway.

With a final note, I leave a message to all of those people suffering from these "diseases."

Girl who doesn't eat, go to FOGO DE CHAO and stuff yourself silly. What the media says doesn't matter, you are beautiful for who you are, and you should be happy being yourself. Everyone is amazing in their own way, and happiness comes to those that are optimistic and feel good about themselves.

For the people that are drinking, DUDE!! Eat something, getting drunk is awesome sometimes, but too much alcohol in the system can kill you!!! I mean eat something anything, and if you just want to get wasted drink jello shots or something. They get the job done quick!! Plus you can later go on a food run when you get the drunk munchies, because everyone knows that food tastes so much better! So eat PLZ!! And when you're done drinking take some tums to lose the drunkeness quicker, I know this because of my friend peterkid, god bless his alcoholic soul.

With that, I'm out

Doppelganger




"Doppelganger" is German for "double walker" - a shadow self that is thought to accompany every person. Traditionally, it is said that only the owner of the doppelganger can see this phantom self, and that it can be a harbinger of death. To see ones doppelganger is considered to be an omen of death. Occasionally, however, a doppelganger can be seen by a person's friends or family, resulting in quite a bit of confusion.



How They Met Themselves by: Dante




In instances of bilocation, a person can either spontaneously or willingly project his or her double, known as a "wraith," to a remote location. This double is indistinguishable from the real person and can interact with others just as the real person would.


Real Life Instances:

There are many known recordings of such events happening, all one needs to do is look it up in order to read the accounts. My favorite however comes from my favorite artist: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe


Amid all this pressure and confusion I could not forego seeing Frederica once more. Those were painful days, the memory of which has not remained with me. When I reached her my hand from my horse, the tears stood in her eyes; and I felt very uneasy. I now rode along the foot-path toward Drusenheim, and here one of the most singular forebodings took possession of me. I saw, not with the eyes of the body, but with those of the mind, my own figure coming toward me, on horseback, and on the same road, attired in a dress which I had never worn, — it was pike-gray, with somewhat of gold. As soon as I shook myself out of this dream, the figure had entirely disappeared. It is strange, however, that, eight years afterward, I found myself on the very road, to pay one more visit to Frederica, in the dress of which I had dreamed, and which I wore, not from choice, but by accident. However it may be with matters of this kind generally, this strange illusion in some measure calmed me at the moment of parting. The pain of quitting for ever noble Alsace, with all I had gained in it, was softened; and, having at last escaped the excitement of a farewell, I, on a peaceful and quiet journey, pretty well regained my self-possession.


Von Goethe saw himself riding toward himself on the road. He saw his doppelganger coming toward him as if to signal him that he would take the same rout sometime in the future.


This is just one of many accounts of Doppelganger sightings. I dare you right now, look it up and get informed. Who knows, perhaps you might learn something that intrigues you or more importantly learn about your own Doppelganger.
So who are these beings and entities? No one knows, I for one am convinced that perhaps such entities are astral projections of oneself by bending and manipulating the very sense of time and dimensions that govern this universe.
Whose to say that we won't be able to do this successfully in the future right? I mean we already have mastery of the 2nd dimension and the 3rd as well, whats so say that we won't be able to master the 4th or better yet the 11th. With the advent of high technological advances, the sky is the limit. For all we know, someones Doppelganger was manufactured in the future and sent back through time to visit and "replace" the certain person as a measure to prevent some future event to unfold. Many would consider this absurd and even a little bit nutty, but thats what ToastyToast does. I am a piece of burnt nutty toast.
I just hope that I'm not breaking from the norm too much, I would hate to see my blogs written by another imitation toast; and im pretty sure that many of you would not want that to happen.
So until next time

Next blog will cover the mysteries of the Hollow Earth Theory :)

Run Rabbit Run

Run rabbit run
dig that hole, forget the sun
and when at last the work is done
don't sit down, it's time to dig another one
for long you live and high you fly
but only if you ride the tide
and balanced on the biggest wave
you race towards an early grave
