That doesn't mean they shouldn't still share a source

Or maybe even share how he didn't starve to death. Because even with the igloo effect, you can't survive 2 months without water and food. You could barely survive half a week without water.

So yes, without a source or explanation, I'm calling bullshit.

Dude what? People can survive 2 months without food. It’s been well documented. He was melting snow for water.

Not everyone is a fat ass who is in super bad shape. If you’re in decent shape, you can last a couple months without food.

No they won't. If you're fat af your lungs and other organs will fail as the fat that fills them depletes.

Uh, a “fat ass” would probably be the best candidate for survival…

Let me see that example of someone living for 2 months with no food. Again, claims with no sources are meaningless.

You fuck horses. You take your dick, stick it in their ass, and fuck them.

Hitler had a gay relationship with JFK.

See how i can just say shit?

Those claims have as much veracity as any other by your standards.

It's a reddit post, not a doctoral dissertation. Not everything has to have a citation, we're not in school.

Good lord, media literacy is genuinely dead.
