Questions about anything

Because it makes you fat, and being fat is unhealthy, and being unhealthy can kill you.

How does chocolate make you fat?

 

[D'Snowth]

Because it's loaded with sugar, for one thing.

What's in sugar that makes you fat?


(Yes, I know, It's one after another here.)

It's not what's in sugar, it's sugar itself; sugar isn't something that's digested like other substances you consume, sugar is absorbed into your body, as opposed to being digested, and sugar is almost immediately converted into body fat after consumption.

You're making the assumption, both of you, that "chocolate" equates to Hershey's or some other mass-produced milky drek. REAL chocolate HAS NO SUGAR. Cacao is not fattening, and aids many hormonal processes in the body. Eat DARK chocolate, as high a cacao percentage as you can get.

SWEETS are fattening, particularly in large amounts (and most Americans far overconsume). CHOCOLATE, the real stuff, is not.

There was an old Casper cartoon "Casper's Spree Under the Sea". Following the formula of all his cartoons, Casper tries making friends, but ends up scaring them away.

Depressed with his friendless status, Casper actually tries to end it all by tying a rope around himself, the other end to a big rock, and throws the rock off a pier, hoping to drown himself. (Lucky for us, his suicide attempt gets botched, and he lives to see another day).

Can a ghost actually commit suicide?
If he did actually die, would he come back as a live person?

When a hurricane named Sandy hits your state and you're without power for 12 days, these are the kinds of thoughts you might end up having.
