On a scale from “I consult with my nutritionist and personal trainer to do monthly meal planning with only locally grown whole foods hand-fed to me by the farmer himself” to “sometimes I put cream cheese on Cheez-Its to make Cream-‘Ems,” how health-conscious would you say that you are?
Personally, I’m closer to the latter than the former, and while I know that’s not great, it sure does allow me to laugh pretty hard at a lot of tweets about the health struggle.
It’s easy to get swept up in worry when it comes to our bodies. We gotta chuckle sometimes too.

8. Diagnostic mysteries
Listen to the voice inside of you, but not the one that’s being a total bummer right now.
Me: So tired. So weak. Am I incurably sick? Is this the end
My body: The only green thing you've eaten in weeks was an Andes Mint.
Me: Why, cruel world? Why me
Body: You sleep 4 hours a night.
Me: Oh mortality, the cruelest mistress.
Body: Maybe go for a walk? Just one

Apple knows things that we mere mortals couldn’t dream of.

4. Getting your exercise
You mean I gotta walk all the way back to my dresser?

Me: this is bullshit

3. Deadly serious
Are we the first generation to meme about mortality like this?
Cop: it was a brutal, bloody murder. whoever did this is a sick person.
Millennial detective: omg who did this ???
Cop: that’s….that’s why we called you

2. Watch me whip
Maybe she’s just eating it right from the tub at night?
my mom has literally 80 cool whip containers that she uses as tupperware and yet I’ve never seen her put cool whip on anything. where are these containers coming from. what is happening here. what is this story.

Better know all about this body so I can keep ignoring it.

Remember to like, I dunno, have a carrot or something if you haven’t in a while. I’ve heard that’s good. I’m no scientist.
