-Me: 'I am.'
-Friend: 'then why are you eating carbohydrates?'
-Me: 'It's part of the diet.'
-Friend: 'Umm, I don't get it.'
-Me: *Explains the science/importance of 'carbing-up' in mind numbing detail*
-Friend: 'Ahh, I see, that makes sense.'
-Me: 'You didn't understand a word I said, did you?'
-Friend: 'Nope, no I didn't.'
-Me: 'Leave me alone with my Cinnamon Toast Crunch... BE-GONE HEATHEN!'
Side note- do you ever notice that when people know you're on a 'diet'- it becomes a topic of conversation over and over and over again (usually when you're eating something they’ll ask 'Is that allowed on the diet?' etc. etc. etc.).
