Are any of you gluten sensitive? (a drunk thread, tell me about your day))

[redbreegull]

well if you are you are full of shit because that shit does not exist unless you have celiac disease.


how are y'all doing? today I drove a boat around the charleston harbor and that shit was cash. I also saw some dolphins corral a school of fish into an alcove on the shore and then they fucking beached themselves to force to fish into the shallows and they massacred them and slithered back off to the watery depths.

i know a person that is bipolar but she says it's down to gluten and then she cultivates this eternal state of being too busy

i figure the meltdown is imminent. not that i'm being smug about it or anything, honestly i kind of wish i could construct my own reality

unfortunately i am trill, so that is impossible

[Trotskilicious]

also, i wish i could conduct a formal poll but it seems like #1 with a bullet on why servers hate austin is "GLUTEN-FUCKING-FREE"

[butthurt]

fad diet

hipsters like to claim it as a feather in their hat

[Trotskilicious]

i like indie rock and have plastic glasses. i wear a scarf in the winter and have a large beard. i enjoy portlandia because it satirizes my peer group and I have vinyl records.

i do not ride a bicycle or are gluten free

am i a hipster ?

[Trotskilicious]

the overarching point is that hipster doesn't mean anything and we should just call these people Glutentards or something

[Order 66]

there's a shop foreman at work who goes out and gets blasted on coke and tequila about every other night but is convinced his yellowing and itchy skin is because of gluten. i'm like, really

[Trotskilicious]

isn't that jaundice?

[Trotskilicious]

[Order 66]

i ain't no doc but the dude's liver is obvs wreckd

[MyOneAndOnly]

the only good thing about the GF fad is that it's created a lot of food products for people who actually can't eat Gluten. 10 years ago if you had Crohn's or Celiac there wasn't much available.

[ilikeplanets]

It's a protein in wheat and a few other grains

[duovamp]

I try to get penetrated by 3 kinds of gluten every day.

Also Trots you're like a level 4 hipster. Meaning every level up through 3 hipster gets to call you a hipster and I guess that makes them feel good.

That stupid fucking article.

I hate pop science journalism so much. It's literally one of the worst things about our society.

I had the same question for a couple months

[null123]

Gluten intolerance may not exist (I don't know) but wheat allergy is one of the most common food allergies.

[reprise85]

i busted my nose on a desk at work. i was tying my shoe and using a shelf near the floor for leverage and it broke and i hit the desk hard. blood everywhere etc. no big deal, got glued up and some anti-inflammatories. but now i have to do this workers comp bullshit and it's stressing me out. all they need to pay for is the hospital visit and that is it (i had to go to hospital because it was late sat night). they want access to all of my health records and shit and im not about that. so i have to figure out what will happen if i dont give them that info.

honestly i would even pay for my treatment, it was my fault, i just reported it because i had to.

took off the glue stitches today, looks better than i thought it would. still a scab and everything but that shit was gnarly before. still hurts a little.

[slunken]

and the cage comes down

[Cool As Ice Cream]

yeah that glue is excellent
they glued my face and hands after i ran through a window about fifteen years ago

I don't know what article you are talking about, I am referring to a widely written about study by a researcher who originally contributed to evidence that there may actually be an autoimmune problem with gluten in some people. His follow-up study found no evidence that people who identify as gluten sensitive actually experience any negative biological consequences from consuming it. A quick google search reveals his paper was published in the Journal of Gastroenterology.

pop science?

[null123]

Problem?

- Spent most of the day slumming it with the kid. Among other stuff, I got her a stuffed Ganesha doll at HPB because she thought it was pretty. Now she's at her grandparents'.
- Checked a 700+ page book about Michael Jackson out of the library, even though I'm still halfway through Christine by Stephen King, which is pretty good.
- Currently listening to Deafheaven's re-issued demo on vinyl as I type.

All in all, good day.

[D.]

Oh, gluten talk. I have no idea what that is, actually.

[redbull]

as someone who works in a restaurant i can concretely say fuck gluten sensitivity
