Today, I saw the first round of posts that made me feel ill reading them. A user by the name of **gluten free**.

See this thread. [Is man a meat-eater or a vegetarian by nature?"](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=638344)

For all that anyone holds holy, please quit engaging this person.

I finally found the ignore setting, and have used it for the first time.

No, it works as an non sexual double entendre. Depending on who reads it, it means “LOL’d” or “Aint this annoying as hell?” The latter application of course being a commiseration with regard to **gluten free** ’s idiom. I get that some folks are annoyed with Bo’s quarry-tossing proclivities, but in this case I think there was a certain poetry to it. I give it an 8.

I got to the second page, which contained this gem:

> [@Is man a meat-eater or a vegetarian by nature?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/is-man-a-meat-eater-or-a-vegetarian-by-nature/609381/69):
>
> The book i referrenced, contains uncorrupted, scientific & reviewed info; does it APPLY in all cases that recovery is complete, that all efforts 2 counter effects r successful totally in every case post recognition? perhaps not; especially not post mortem.

So you can improve your life by completely cutting out gluten, except, _perhaps_, if you’re already dead. Then it might not work.

Good advice.
