For stuff that's neat. Neat article? Neat video? Neat pic of a bug you saw? All good. Neat meme? Ehhh... take it to the meme subs.

Rules

  1. Don't be an asshole. If you're reading a comment you're about to make and think "Hmm... this sounds like the kind of comment an asshole would make" then do not make that comment. Yes, even if the other person "started it". The report button is your friend.

"The meal isn't over when I'm full. The meal is over when I hate myself!"

Look man, I'm not going to the store to get more plastic wrap or aluminum foil, and I'm also not going to repackage this for the fridge, so what ever is left is going to be eaten so I don't have to clean it up or throw it out... And I don't like to throw out anything. My spouse got all did you eat the core of the Apple on me just one time before she realized it wasn't worth trying to convince me not to eat it lol.

Note: I don't make her eat anything, I just eat anything she doesn't want to save for later.

I think they're trying really hard to not translate the name of the practice to make it seem cooler or esoteric or something. But it literally translates to "stomach 8 10 percents" 😂

"Don't overeat" - Boring, stupid, OKAY DAD

食べすぎないで - Cool, Japanese, makes me feel like an anime character

I definitely have the problem that if I try to eat until I'm 100% full, that it doesn't stop. Feels like my stomach is a bottomless pit. Meanwhile, my coworker eats like half a portion and then can't fit another bite.

The real issue here is Americans and many westerners have been binge eating disgusting processed junk since very early childhood.

Permanently damaging or even destroying their biological mechanisms for feeling full

This leads to a weird obsession with other cultures that contain knowledge and practices for eating in a particular manner

They are quite literally missing an upbringing where their culture and parents taught them to stop eating

Mods be crazy out here. Allow me to rephrase. If you think reading an article gives you enough insight in to a whole nation's people you are a severely cloistered and incurious person and should have some more empathy for your fellow man. Dont be THAT guy.

Mods be completely normal here. Removing your prior comment was my second action as a mod here in the past year plus. Don't be a dick. If you want to be a dick, you can go to gestures broadly to a wide swathe of the internet.
