Soylent + vodka is basically like a mudslide . Tricky to get the mix right, though.

Actually, the mudslide is what you call what happens after drinking that.

i have a lot of Things To Say about soylent but ultimately i'm a bit confused by it. nutritionally complete foodliquids already exist and are used in hospital, either given orally, through a nasogastric tube or intravenously in the form of parenteral nutrition. while it isnt the best to rely on them permanently, you can subsist on them for years at least.

Real Talk: My brother actually bought some Soylent for his girlfriend's father, who actually has the kind of gastrointestinal issues that liquid food supplements (the kind made by people who know what they're doing) are supposed to help. Next time I talk to him, I'm going to ask him how that turned out.

I do know that her father is still alive!

Imagine a reality show where the Soylent Founder and the dozerfleet founder compete to see who can act like a human the longest in a social setting.

I keep checking this thread expecting to see a drawing of the Hawaiian Punch mascot, holding a bottle of Soylent as he surfs on a wave of thick green gas that's coming out of his own butt, and the caption "RIDE THE GREEN STINK WAVE".

I've known about Soylent for quite a while, but nothing more than that it was "food replacement product" or something I heard called a "sustenance paste".

I was even passively interested in it, but never enough to bother looking into it.

I'm absolutely astounded, I would have never imagined it had this much insanity surrounding it, with ROUTINE incidents of defective/infested/corrupted food products, ROUTINE reports of the food causing illness and not even satisfying hunger, and an entire community of deluded partisans defending the product and continuing to consume it in spite of it causing continued illness.

Yeah.

Listening to this again and I love how these people have overcome the basic instinct to not eat foods that have previously made them sick. That's an instinct nearly universal to all mammals!* good job overcoming millions of years of evolution I guess.


*vampire bats are the only non-idiot exception, presumably because fresh blood doesn't ever go off

Special Xmas Update

1) Her father did receive a few pouches of the powdered Soylent, but only used one, since "it tasted like pancake batter." (I didn't mention The FPlus at all, so this was an unsolicited reaction.)
2) My brother took the remaining pouches and tried it himself, and said it was also really thick and gross.
3) There may still be unprepared pouches of Soylent 1.? at my brother's apartment, waiting to be sold to Redditors for potentially hundreds of dollars, if I want nerd blood on my hands.

Make that awful brownie recipe for ballp.it. Please. I'll donate $25 to a charity of your choice if you make and take photos of that monstrosity.

A Facebook friend posted about Soylent, because apparently he hadn't heard about it, and was getting ads for it. One of his other friends said in the comments that her sister likes Soylent, and brought some of it when she went to Burning Man.

That feels really weird, because Soylent and Burning Man seem like they're for diametrically-opposed types of insufferable white people.

Burning Man gets grandfathered in to Silicon Valley culture because it's been a thing since back when all the computer industry guys were hippie beardo dropout types.
