you know how cells have a a certain amount of life in them

and they reproduce and create more cells

telomers

they are programmed to only produce so many cells

right

They split in 2

But over time they get worse at splitting

That's what causes aging

so over time you are programmed to eventually die of age as they don't keep reproducing

right

yes

somewhat

so by controlling your metabolism, you can control how fast your cells reproduce and create more cells

well, programming makes it sound intentional

generally my trick involves eating one meal a day, and slowing down your metabolism intentionally

sounds not fun

its not about starving, its about slowing down your metabolism

Or you can be like Walt Disney

its a question of how long you want to live

i just said that it doesnt sound fun

well, if your starving doing it then your doing it wrong

there should be no hunger pains doing it

i never said you are starving

i just said not fun

well, that is my general modus operandus, I eat one meal a day

cool

and I believe its working and extending my life

Cant eat my daily five Big Macs

and then your metabolism is on overdrive

and you'll die early IMHO

neat

interesting...

its a working theory, I could be completely full of shit, but I believe its reality

I have no proof

at least you admit that

well, before you start asking for papers for proof

I didn't consult any doctors or do any research, I just came up with the theory on my own

and since I already eat one meal a day its convenient to say its extending my life

It could hold some truth to it

and it sounds reasonable

fair enough, all i have to say, as long as you arent hurting yourself and you enjoy it. go for it

^^

How long do you think you'll live because of thus?

at most maybe 20 years added

maybe live to 120 or so if I'm extremely lucky

my grandmother lived to 100

A friend of mine was trying to convince me she wouldn't live to a 100 and it was a pipe dream

he had to eat crow when she did

we were talking about her living to 101 but my dad was saying it wasn't even possible, she was in bad health

did he eat a cow?

always wanted to try cow brain

my friend was looking at the statistics and was trying to convince me it was such a long shot for her to survive to 100

crow, not cow

its a term for being wrong

o

less cool

you are speaking english right?

never heard it before

no, i speak 0 english

you seem to be speaking english

never

you using google translate?

no, its called sarcasm

<:thonk:485324336874651650>

too many illegals are coming here without being able to speak the langauge and never learning

<:thonk:485324336874651650> <:thonk:485324336874651650> <:thonk:485324336874651650>

you know how I do sarcasm

?

not very well

I give no clue that I'm being sarcastic

its like I am trying to make you believe I'm being sincere

This has been a long conversation

Con

Long con

obviously

and my point is that if you know me you should be able to tell that I'm being sarcastic just by the words alone

You're not even FE, it's just a long sarcastic joke

yeee

no, I really am a flat earther

...

I'm not being sarcastic about that

its an overly sarcastic production

How can we ever trust what you say 😱

no, its not

we cant 😱

just like I was being sincere when I was talking about extending your life by eating one meal a day

I was being sincere, that isn't sarcasm and I was being sincere when I said that I did no research into it

believe me, I'm super lazy and did no research

you can believe me

i beliieve you have no research on it, but as i said, i dont really care

well, I did a ton of research on flat earth

not because i'm not lazy but I found the subject super interesting

and I wanted to be informed

I care about truth and don't like being lied to

so I wanted to get to the bottom of it

after comparing the two models with a strong idea of what flat earth really was, I concluded which of the two more closely matched our reality

if you look at flat earth with preconceived notions, your going to end with those preconceieved notions being confirmed

its called confirmation bias for a reason, my dad refuses to even look at flat earth stuff and when he does, its only to find fault with it

he's not looking for truth, he's looking for flaws to prove he's already on the path of truth
