which causes more harm placebo or nocebo (both -wallet and enjoyment)?

which one you think is your "problem"?







*use your sense of humour if you can't be honest*

Shredded Wheet is like eating large bricks of fibreglass and shrapnel for breakfast, with the same taste as those large lumps of grey lint that form down the back of sofas without removable cushions.

Weetabix are delicate and delicious. A veritable dance upon the tongue of the savoury breakfaster.

Why doesn't it surprise me that a Weetabix fanboy also eats sofa lint? Lemme guess, you like churros too?

Weetabix is for fat pansies who can't crap and dogs that belong to fat pansies who can't crap. Real men start their day with Shredded Wheat and a shot of Johnny Walker.

Real men have no need to prove that they are tough in some way by eating a cereal as utterly vile as Shredded Wheat. Only stick-armed, milk-bottle-legged, NHS-bespectacled RPG-board-game-playing fools with a lack of real constitution do so, in an attempt to try and convince themselves and their friends that they have the iron innards of someone like Ian Botham or Steve Redgrave.

As for the Johnny Walker, I'll leave that on the shelf and stick to the turps for my morning pick-me-up.

And this is Scotland, we dont have stupid sweet soft baked snacks like Churros OR Pretsels. Not when theres the mighty yum-yum.

QFT.

I'd say that for me (and my wallet), nocebo is placebo enough. If that makes any sense whatsoever.

You've only described your own, Weetaboy. On the streets, we only roll with Shredded Wheat, cause there ain't no cereal mo gangsta. What, son?!
