I can't believe just how far off base they are. And then they throw up all this anecdotal bullshit like "oh, well you might have cited a study but I know one guy who eats heaps and is still skinny. I mean... I only know him from work so I only see him eat one meal a day... I have no idea what his routine is like... BUT HE DISPROVES ALL THIS PEER REVIEWED RESEARCH." But then you call them on that and they keep fucking lying. "Oh, I'm with him every minute of every day and I know he'd never lie and we discuss his diet in depth even though no normal person does that so I know FOR SURE!" Who do they think is fooled by that? Other than themselves I guess. I mean, if they took a step back and though about it for one second what seems more likely:  That they have a friend who defies all peer reviewed literature on the subject; or That they don't know every single facet of their friends lives and extrapolating from what they do know to fill in the gaps is inaccurate?
