When I can’t sleep, I turn around and sleep “upside down” - moving my pillows to where my feet were beforehand, and my feet to where my head was beforehand - and I stick with that for a week or so. It gives me a week or so without insomnia and then wears off, so I have to turn myself back around for the next 7-12 day period.

Admittedly this could just be a me thing, but let’s put our faith in this method and let the power of placebo effect take hold. Boom, minor bouts of sleeplessness are cured.

What are your own examples of this?

    Oh no! Not the 48 calories! In my 0.7 giant fucking mug of tea! My diet is ruined!

    Like, seriously?

    You understand that most of the beverages are far less calorie-dense than your average snack, meal, or whatever, right? And that our stomach capacity is limited? Once you drink enough of even the sweetest tea, you won’t have the room for anything more dense for some time.

          So letmme explain how this works: I expressed my opinion about not drinking calories. You’ve offered nothing but a shitty attitude back at me, while I was clarifying that you should, in fact, so what works for you.

          So at this point, you can piss off for all I care.

          Do what makes you happy and fuck off, kiddo.

            You started patronizing me about how i “shouldn’t drink calories”, to which i expressed my displeasure through a sarcastic comment, after which explained why i think you’re wrong, to which your only response was “do whatever you want” like i wasn’t allowed to do so before.

            Not only your advice is patronizing, unwanted and backed up by nothing, it also isn’t helpful in the first place.

            And now you’re acting upset because i haven’t stroked your ego by agreeing with you, or “showing you proper respect”, as if you weren’t the first one to act shitty it the first place.

            Get lost.
