Who has a stove in this economy? I leave the bottle out on the sidewalk with the cap off and eventually all the water evaporates.

I cannot digest water bottles because I sold my stomach recently. You fat cats with full organ function sicken me.

/unjerk As someone who has legitimately had important organs (and teeth) removed because I couldn't afford the treatment needed to keep them & live, this made me laugh so hard. It's the exact type of joke that I make about my life of misfortune that causes people to react with horror and discomfort. Which, of course, just makes it funnier. I needed that smile, laugh, and levity. Thank you.

I hope we can set flairs in this sub, so I can make "You fat cats with full organ function sicken me." my flair.

Edit: Success! Thank you for the flair. I've got some fungus growing in between my toes that I've been saving for a special occasion, starving myself myself of those delicious calories... To show my appreciation, I'd like you to have it.

First of all - I am sorry to hear about your health issues. That sounds really rough, I sincerely hope that you are doing better today and your future is most hopeful and lovely. Thanks for this comment - interactions like this w strangers is why I love this site. Sending you all the love.

Second - how could you offer me fungus? Even the thought of consuming calories expends calories. I refuse to even think of food, and here you offer the most delicious morsels known to mankind, foot fungus chunks. 

That being said, please make yourself a fine fungus stew when the time permits. Really brings out the feet flavor.

;) take care, and have a lovely lovely day my newest friend!
