A wise philosopher (Patrick Freyne) at a party once told me the world is divided into biscuit eaters and biscuit hiders. If a packet of biscuits was opened and demolished in 24 hours, did it even exist if no one else got to eat any? They will ask silly questions like: “Where have the delicious chocolate coated biscuits that I bought a week ago gone? People are injecting themselves with bootleg peptides and GLP-1s bought from the internet. I will eat the biscuits.
