The Internet is My Religion

Jim is alive because of the actions of anonymous people online, fighting to get him a lung transplant after his lungs were scarred by radiation treatment to fight cancer – Non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma.

If you only watch one video today, this should be it. It has been called ‘the best video on the internet’ and ‘one of the greatest stories in human history’. I had a tear in my eye watching it and I actually clapped at the end on my own in front of my computer.

“Today I breath through someone else lungs while anothers blood flows through my veins. I have faith in people, I believe in God and the internet is my religion” – Jim Gilliam

Jim talks about an interesting idea that ”God is what happens when humanity is connected…and the internet is how we’re all connected” therefore the internet is his religion.

Rid your life of food rage, forever

Food Rage. It’s like a socially awkward club that you only know you’re in, if you’re in. You know you have food rage, your partner (and sometimes your best friend) knows you have food rage, but to everyone else you’re just the impatient child who whines and bitches that people aren’t leaving the office fast enough to get to lunch.

Gojee.com will help reduce your cognitive strain enough so that you can still maintain function of your bodily organs long enough to get some seriously tasty food in your face.

You can search recipes by food you crave, food you hate or food you have. There is always a danger that the really big photos of food will make you worse. But sometimes, it’s a chance you’ve just got to take.

The phenomenon known as Food Rage isn’t only confined to the inconvenience of the foodless office space, it can also occur:

•  at weddings when you’ve starved yourself for the buffet but went to the toilet at the wrong time and now find yourself at the back of the que as all the mini-onion bajis quickly disappear into the fat bridesmaids mouth.

•  at the supermarket when you thought it would be a good idea to think about dinner at dinner time and now all you want, as you stare with piercing caveman eyes at a packet of mini sausages, is for someone to bring you some food, any food. You just want to eat something so you can think straight and leave.

•  at a restaurant when you believed so much that this was going to be the greatest meal of all time so you starved yourself since elevenses and now you’re so hungry that you can’t choose what you want to eat, beating yourself up inside knowing that your vicious cycle of hunger = indecisiveness is holding off the food from ever arriving at your table at all. Then you dare to ask the waitress ‘what would you have?’.

Unfortunately food rage is not recgonised as an illness, so please take sympathy on someone you suspect may suffer from these symptoms and always carry an emergency doughnut.
