Surely trolling what's meant to be a well-intentioned presenter brought in to help the company fats in front of his coworkers and possibly bosses will advance saw's position and prestige within the org. Make sure to also mention how the Nazis actually did a lot of positive things too while you're there.

Yea critiquing a presenter who's telling a bunch of fat programmers to stop eating cookies and cake is my biggest concern. Will probably go, sit there quietly, and just take the animal murdering route afterwards.

To be fair, it would be super lulzy if you go in there defending sugar while eating a 3lb RFL salad.

I hear rabbit is pretty tasty, if you're able to be discerning in the middle of your bloodbath that would be

I forget, is this a female presenter? Maybe invite her out afterwards for dinner and impress her with your superior knowledge.

My question is, will this be amusing/informative enough to go, or just way too tilting and make me want to kill everyone?

ETA: Or, if this presentation is absurd, chances that I can spit knowledge and make a fool out of the presenter? Things I should brush up on?

I don't think it will be absurd. Likely not as informative to you as to many others in the audience but I doubt it will be absurd.

Odds are high that yogurt will be an example of "hidden sugar" tho.

My note 2 was the biggest piece of **** I ever owned from a quality perspective. What a disaster.

The note 4 doesn't even seem to offer much over the note 3. I love my g3 because 5" screens are for poor ppl but the s5 iPhone 6 are serious contenders.

It will be if you go to the Q&A shirtless giving the presenter a DYEL stare and flexing.

#2 DIRE DANGER FROM A SINGLE PRODUCT OR REGIMEN

The target may change from year to year, but the attack is always similar: Fat makes you fat, carbohydrates are toxic, sugar is white death. Cheatham says it can be a good thing if a headline or a new diet book triggers people to review how much sugar, processed carbs or saturated fat they tend to eat.

#7 LISTS OF “GOOD” & “BAD” FOODS

“Foods aren’t independently good or bad, as in you should always eat or you should never eat,” says Goldberg. A little ice cream can be OK, if you otherwise practice restraint, and every vegetable you consume doesn’t have to be at the top of the ORAC (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) scale for measuring antioxidants.

Wow very interesting. Yea I wasn't really even skeptical of the abstract until the last sentence about "hiding" in your diet. We'll see though, I'm definitely gonna have an open mind and be polite, but at the same time if something is legit bad advance and bothers me I'm a comin' for you, Miss Presenter.

My cousin is studying at Tufts right now. I have no idea what she is studying or how far into her studies she is. Post the last name of the presenter. If it is my cousin I would prefer you relentlessly troll her throughout the presentation.

You'd probably have seen her lovingly caressing one of her handguns while eating a donut at some point by now if she was, so yeah.

my smart phone history goes iphone3s - android (forget the phone name but it was the first dual core android) - iphone5 - whatever this one will be. i like both but recognize the drawbacks of both. ive also jailbroked/rooted all my phones so that wont be an issue either.

•Why Conventional Diets Don’t Work
•How YOUR Body Really Works
•The Concept of Individuality
•How to Tone Muscle While Losing Fat
•How to Gain Permanent Control
•How to Super-Charge Your Energy Level

Should I go??? Seems too good to pass up. It's been a while since I was privy to their nutrition advice, but a few years ago, they told me to graze all day, eat lots of small meals, so that my metabolism would stay super-charged.

If you think I should go, please provide some expert questions I should have ready for them.

Should human sperm be ingested pre- or post- workout for best uptake when trying to reduce weight but maintain muscle?

Might get you banned from the gym, but it would be funny to see. Have your wife video when you do it.

Looks like she might have a sense of humor:

I'm sure you'll have the opportunity to to pick some nits. Don't tell her you've run RFL multiple times though, IMO.
