A Calorie is NOT just a Calorie

    I do not believe that anyone but you here is thinking of it as a 'unit of food' rather than a 'unit of energy'.

    Got that link again to show a calorie means something different to a unit of energy?

    Also thinks "the same" has to be "identical"

    A calorie is a calorie. Proof given - Twinkie diet. Whole point - you can eat any food because a calorie is a calorie. If no one is thinking of it as food, none of those make sense.

    The link again:

    So is a calorie a calorie? Or is a calorie kinda like a calorie?

    Why does everyone have to be an arrogant smart *kitten*? Why can't one person say "Yeah, I see what you mean. We say it that way to make a point.". Would be a much nicer and more welcoming way to explain why it is the way it is than 1,000 people ganging up and saying "you're wrong." But whatever. Says a lot about this group. Every damn thread is a ***** fest of people arguing over nonsense.

    *I*, of all people, tried to reason with you.

    So if you and I are "the same" age, does that mean that we were born exactly simultaneously? Of course not.

    Why do some people have to go Koo Koo for Cocoa Puffs when someone actually tries to explain something to them?
    You should have stuck with the rage quit instead of the name calling.

    Last roll was my rampage. Point proven. Done.

    Thanks Piglet. You did try to tell me I was wrong in a nicer way than everyone else tried to tell me I was wrong.

    Of course, since I'm not wrong...

    All I said was "c=c isn't the end of the story". That's all. And everyone agrees.

    Thanks everyone! Nice to know you. I'll be here all week. Can't chase me off that easy. You'll come to love me in the end.

    Yea, it's enough. Closed because it's just way too off topic. If you want more gif, then head to OP.. they love that stuff.
