Nonsense!

No one was being "self-righteous". There was no "self-righteous tone".

Since when is ... "I feel so much better, ride so much faster, spend so much so less, have a more meaningful life"? ... somehow a bad thing. To me, that's all positive. Just about the whole first page was positive ... and that's wonderful!



I stopped eating peanuts (and peanut butter) quite a few years ago now. I used to eat a lot of peanuts and peanut butter. But after I quit eating peanuts, I felt so much better. I stopped bloating and felt a lot more energetic. I'm also so much more comfortable on the bicycle when I don't eat peanuts, and that positively affects my performance. In general, I'd say I'm happier and more productive without the peanuts. But I bet if I started a thread about that, there'd be about < 10 responses. No one would care.

People talk about easing up on the drinking, or stopping all together, or opting not to drink ... for the same sort of reasons, or with the same sort of results, as me not eating peanuts .... and the drinkers get all insulted.
