Holy four-legged ruminate, Batman! Which issue?
I think he is talking about this article.
Looks like my estimate was a little late. The issue was from June of 2000. Here is a teaser.
Ah, yeah. The whole article. Even better. Thanks mudcrutch. I should have previewed my post.
It would save time, but then what would you be doing with the time you saved? It would have to be something more enjoyable than eating.
Yes. I’d still like a traditional meal now and then, but the pills would be really convenient at times, especially if they also took care of hunger pangs.
Sleep pills? You bet. I could watch my Sims all night long and not feel like crap when I go to work the next day.
Orgasm pills? Ooh, yeah. I’d rather get hot and sweaty with my wife, but her moods don’t always coincide with mine. “Not tonight? That’s ok honey, just let me get a glass of water.”
Fuck me NO. Food is the best thing in the entire world. I live for food.
The only thing that makes me forget about food is playing computer games. Even then, I like to keep some chocolate at my elbow.
Would anyone’s answer change if the food pill were somewhat more expensive than the average meal? I like eating, but I also don’t like doing dishes. I can cook, but I prefer not to cook. I’d be all over that food pill and that sleep pill. I’d use the extra time to read more books and do some writing.
You’d need a fork and knife…
Take the amount you ingest each day and minus the amount you excrete. That would be roughly how big an ideal pill would have to be.
Like Cheesesteak I’d probably use it to replace a couple of meals a day. I know that there are lots and lots of people who love eating, but I’m not one of them. I like sleeping, but I’m not a big fan of food. I exasperated a friend’s mother recently because she wanted to know what my favorite food was (I was going to be helping them on a project through dinner) and I couldn’t really come up with one. A pill a couple of times a day sounds pretty good to me, especially if coupled with having a meal at the end of the day to satify the few food cravings I do have- bread, meat/poutry and sweets are about it.
Can we talk about the orgasm pill again?
