@meowski @cesare My objection to your hysteria over artificial food additives is that it's not based on any actual evaluation of the substance's danger. It's based on metaphysical properties which you object to. Like just because it was made from "coal tar" which sounds yucky you think that somehow it's still, on a cosmic, metaphysical manner, yucky after being synthesized into something else.

There are plenty of "natural" "real food" ingredients that can kill you in the wrong amount or wrong combination, or if you happen to be allergic. Chemistry is complicated, and your pure-vs-impure instinctive shintoistic reasoning about it is only going to get you so far.

There are other reasons you piss me off and have for a long time, but this is just the one that set me off in this instance. I've never seen you be friendly or nice to anybody, you never have fun, you seem to only be here to, I guess, get into arguments and prove some kind of superiority over other people-- which is a common affliction in the modern age, I'll grant.

I don't know. You just have bad juju and I wouldn't trust you as far as I could throw an obese black woman in an electric wheelchair.
