Kiddos gnawing on my finger. I think we might be in trouble here.
Once babies acquire a taste for human flesh you have continue feeding it to them.
Not the best solution to the homeless situation, but a solution nonetheless.
I thought we were supposed to eat the rich? Have we changed the plan again and no one told me? I seem to miss all the memos, who do I contact to get my name put back on the email list?
I've been chewing my nails and cuticles since I was 6 because I believe in a closed-loop system
Eating the rich is the goal. Eating the homeless is a temporary solution to satisfy hunger. They are not mutually exclusive.
Fair enough. Canabalism is arguably the most sustainable diet. Based on the the ecological footprint calculator I was looking at if I eat just 5 other people my current lifestyle would be sustainable. If I can eat 25 I can live the lifestyle of the rich!
Now imagine if you could eat 25 rich people and gain their assets!!!
Then of course you'd be in line to be eaten next, but since you've been not-rich before, you could probably fool the ravenous hordes.
This could get mathematically complicated. If I eat 25 people, who are each living the lifestyle that is 25 times the sustainable amount and take their assets, I would have the assets to live the lifestyle of 625 sustainable people. So I would have to eat another 600 people to make it sustainable, which would in turn make it unsustainable. A terrible paradox.
