Yeah, I see them all the time.
I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Huh - either they're not on my trains or I'm just not paying attention.
Regardless, I'm gonna say I don't like them.

Also, I like them! They confirm for me that I have a good sense of what's what. And I can eat a thousand calories at one meal if I want to!

I look at those calorie ads and think, "They're just sucking all the joy out of life."

Ah, I'm so embittered by the calorie counts on all the chain menus that seeing them on the subway feels more like a fun game...

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
the calorie counts never bother me. I think they're great. If I'm gonna eat my BK Wednesday, I like the reminder that I should eat nothing but salad and water for the rest of the day. Given the amount taxpayers pay for preventable health problems, I wish more things like this could be done for other issues.

I totally don't see what's wrong with eating 1000 calories at one meal. At all. Cause I often only eat two meals. Or will eat one meal that's much much bigger than my other meals, if I"m actually eating three. So...that doesn't seem weird to me. I'm well aware that a Baja Fresh burrito is 1000 calories or more. But if I have a bowl of cereal for breakfast at 10am, a burrito at 4pm, and then don't eat dinner cause I'm still ful cause those things are HUGE....uh....OK, I'm not healthy. What??

At least in the example shown, I look at that and think that is a lot of food!
Uhg, so I'm afraid to call the mechanic to find out whether the part arrived & has been installed. I mean, yay loaner and all, but I'd like my own car back, you know??

I am totally with you. And that sounds perfectly reasonable. I think it's the "eat six times a day" people, who are also responsible for the 300 calorie Lean Cuisine "meals." If I'm eating three meals of 300 cal each, that would be a really extreme diet! I'm not a snacker, I have like 150 cal. for breakfast, and I'm not even trying to lose weight.
Possibly I am overly defensive.
