    There was a guy here a bit ago who straight up talked about doing this. He thought that his body was acclimated enough to go a week plus without good or water.

    Of course it was mental illness, though, because he was hating himself for “putting his family in jeopardy by eating food.”

      I’ve posted this before, but I was once at a 7-11 buying a Monster and someone in line with me asked if they were good. I used to enjoy them (I’ve backed off of energy drinks in the last few years but used to drink two or more a day) and said that I thought they were.

      The person asking the question said maybe she’d try them because she suspected she was allergic to water.

      I had no good, coherent response to that.

          It’s the temperature that does it, not the water

          Edit: I worked with someone with the issue. She could write on her arm with an ice cube and it would raise up where she wrote.
