"But it's raw, must be it's natural and good!" In the first world we tend to forget exactly how close our grandparents were to dying from poisoning or a disease. We don't talk about it — only take it for granted. That not raising alarms on some people is my proof. One can easily take their ad content apart and roll eyes a dozen times. "one full lunar cycle"? Just below 30 days (if by lunar cycle they mean "new moon to new moon"). But it sounds mysterious, and apparently, the hipsters of the Silicon Valley are narcissistic enough to buy that there's some special water just for them if they're willing to shed the money. Silicon Valley is very high-money, and areas like that tend to attract scams for people thinking they deserve that money.it’s advertised as "unfiltered, untreated, unsterilized spring water.”
My mom (a biology teacher) has a saying with stuff like this: "Snake venom is organic, too."
Advertisers use "organic" to show the item's natural origin, which is supposed to tell us, in the age of manufactured goods, that it's good. It doesn't have to be. Coal is organic, and most of the times, we don't eat it.
And anything with “chemicals” is toxic. So, pretty much everything. We should all stay indoors and subsist on a diet of Purell hand sanitizer.
I can envision the Tim & Eric skit.With the new KaBOOM pills, from Cinco, just one, and you're done! After your stomach acids eat through the mag lev device, the antimatter is no longer suspended, and is free to annihilate with that pesky stomach lining. Although the pill will kill you, we are the first diet pill company to guarantee meaningful weightloss for any user. After your corpse is stitched back together for the funeral, some of your bits will have been left behind, on walls, floors, and ceilings, resulting in a second round of weightloss. You'll be thin, in your coffin, and that's how you'll be remembered.
Breatharians are the whackjobs you are looking for. These people were big for a while until they were caught shopping at 7-11's and I am not joking.
I was not disappointed.Wiley Brooks later claimed that Diet Coke and McDonald's cheeseburgers have special "5D" properties. The idea of separate but interconnected 5D and 3D worlds is a major part of Wiley Brooks' ideology, and Wiley Brooks encourages his followers to only eat these special 5D foods, as well as meditate on a set of magical 5D words.
In the same vein as francopoli: sun-gazers. People who believe they can survive solely by the energy of the Sun. And apparently, NASA confirmed that sun-gazing is a real energy source. Of course they didn't: the article's first line goes:The title may have taken you off guard, but like all the other things in life you have to read between the lines and decipher the real meaning that is evident here.
