Riddalin: the all-purpose cure
Over in [info]cooking, health-conscious user [info]changeopresto has a bone to pick. You see, the United States is currently being ravaged by an obesity epidemic, and she has made it her personal mission to change that. Thus, she humbly requests that all "non-healthy" recipes be placed behind a cut.

Other users quickly point out that she is in a general cooking community that accepts all types of recipes, and that it can be hard to objectively define what is and isn't healthy. And of course, she is not a mod and should just use the scroll button.

The wank takes a turn for the truly bizarre in that last thread. [info]ladyartemisa points out that what is healthy varies from person to person - for example, her husband has hypertension and must cut down on salt, while she is pregnant with low blood pressure and must load up on salt.

[info]changeopresto is confused. "Ok well I don't know what doctor is prescribing a low salt diet for hypertension. I thought they gave people riddalin for that."

[info]obfuscate brings the snark which immediately leads to [info]changeopresto uttering the comment of a million lulz. Protip: The 'H' is ADHD does not stand for hypertension.

Bonus lulz: Pastry is not real. Also, butter.

400+ comments, so there's plenty more wank to be found. And of course, [info]changeopresto edits the original post with the mandatory, "GET A LIFE PEOPLE!!!"

ETA: If you find something through otf_wank you really should resist replying.

Is it just me, or does the OP's literacy waver in weird ways? I mean, there are comments with perfect grammar, and then ones with bad spelling and obtuseness. It's giving me the troll vibe. Well, that, and my hope for humanity.

Because, seriously, bringing up healthful eating is one of the easiest way to stir up shit in a food community on LJ. Well, that, and the origin of bread.
