Researchers at the Dr. Ughatta B. Khiden-Mee Institute for Fads, Fat and the Fates,
have announced the findings of a 50,000 year old study of upright hominids.
The study represents and combines the results of over 11billion independent experiments,
commonly known as the entire history of Homo Sapien Sapiens.
The study demonstrates the following:
1. Diets require overweight people.
2. Overweight people require diets
3. People are diets.
The study reminds us that we used to have natural predators'
and that through a complete set of accidents and near misses and hits,
mankind no longer need adjust his grazing and feeding habits,
with relation to any reality, in which he knows himself to be
a source of protein for any other feeder.
In short, humans no longer see themselves as prey.
And, no longer needing to work all that much,
in order to produce a feeding moment,
and not having to exert any short burst explosive muscle work
in order simply to survive an encounter with a predator,
Mankind is stuck in evolutionary entropy; the very model of Sisiphysian Raison D'etre-lessness.
To compensate for this seeming lack of purpose within a fluid Darwinian model,
Man eats more than he needs whenever he can,
because his reptile brain insists on repeating (acting out) the mantra of all life:
the next meal may not be so easy.
You might have dinner or you might
be dinner.
Much of the course of the history of Human experience has been largely influenced
by what would have to, by all rights, be called a seeming mortal flaw in our construct;
Humans are largely inept hunters.
We are not so much a species of hunter gatherers,
as we are a species of failed hunters,
who have gathered together in order to survive.
The surprising benefit from being lousy hunters was that in their gathering;
humanity got to know eachother.
Food was usually the comfort between strangers or the cause of the lack of it.
Strangers are given food,
but they must not take it without the hospitality of the offer.
Food sharing with a stranger became the core behaviour
of a set of hopeful and affirming social interactions.
As most modern Americans are strangers unto themselves;
they keep offering themselves food,
to ease the awkward moments of entertaining a stranger.
