i have to boil water for instant pho with a pot, like a savage. or worse, an american. "wait, why not just use the microwave", you may ask. well, they got rid of that too. i asked why. i wish i didn't.
my parents got rid of the microwave because they never really used it much (sensible) and because it irradiates food and discombobulates food DNA and causes all sorts of genetic damage (less sensible). the kettle "ionizes water which makes it dangerous for your health" is as long as i could listen before my brain turned off to protect itself against psychic damage.
i think for the sake of my sanity it's best if i simply stop asking questions.
my dad does not eat eggs, anything made of wheat, most forms of dairy, and sausages. food sensitivity? digestion problems? health issues? no - he went to a health quack (bioresonance™ "examination" that he tried to pressure me into going to as well) who convinced him that they simply Do Not Vibe with his resonant frequencies or whatever
on the advice of this quack, he also only exclusively drinks distilled water. is it a dietary necessity to deprive himself of base minerals that's in fucking tapwater? no, of course not - it's just more pure and it'll bring his resonance back to baseline
when pointed out to him that he's still guzzling down wheat beer like no one's business which is neither made with distilled water and still Very Obviously contains wheat, he states that it is "different", because the """doctor""" said he can drink beer
he complains that he has to take twelve supplements every morning. when pointed out to him that the likely reason why he has to take calcium, magnesium, potassium, manganese, iron, and zinc supplements is because he's drinking distilled water and actively depriving himself of those minerals by doing so, he simply smugly says he refuses to "pollute his body" with the "chemicals in the water", because "that's how they poison us all"
you do not get a prize for correctly guessing who "they" are
i am very, very tired, and i cannot wait for the day i don't have to speak to my family ever again
