Do you guys have any stories of regular people not understanding your diet because of fitness? I don't just mean jealous fatties, I mean normal people

A few weeks ago I bought some frozen Octopus because I wanted to eat more seafood and used it to make an Octopus salad for my work lunch.

>Eating at the table by myself
>A couple of co-workers walk past
>'Jesus user WHAT IS THAT?'
>I smile and politely explain that it is an Octopus salad
>They act like it is the most disgusting thing in the world
>Fucking obese shit co-worker loudly says 'You shouldn't have cooked that Octopus, you should have just asked it to open a jar of peanut butter and made a fucking sandwich'
>people laugh
>everyone in the fucking office knows me now as 'the guy who bought an Octopus to work'
>chinese whispers obviously even though it was an Octopus salad
>people like to make fun of me in a 'joking' way by doing things like pretending my arms are tentacles and making sucker noises when we shake hands
>pen exploded in my pocket the other day and had to go home early so nobody would make ink jokes

Why do people hate so much?

Because you brought a fucking octopus salad to work.

You're letting it get to your head.

man, I ordered fried clams once, and I opened it up and saw what looked like onion rings, but it was calamari and it was disgusting.

Not user, but here you can get octopus pretty easily. It's not that fucking weird.

Ok.

that's fucking dumb. I'd want to try your salad. I had some octopus on a trip to mexico and I enjoyed it.

You could have joked about it with them instead of being hostile to your co-workers from the get go, and instead been that cool fit guy who likes to try crazy food.

Instead you were an autism, and fay dude was pretty funny and you went in the huff.

My diet is healthy but there was this one guy who in the middle of a party just sat down at the table and started eating kvarg and salmon when his watch started beeping.

It was not a dinner party.

Made me think of Veeky Forums

Octopus is delicious

>eating octopus
Dude, you actually brought octopus salad to work? I once brought smoked salmon to work, and people joked for the rest of the day about how they're paying me too much if I can afford to eat that. Just eat a sandwich or make some fried rice or shit. Don't eat octopus, man.

Why do you let them laugh at you?

>pen exploded in my pocket the other day and had to go home early so nobody would make ink jokes

noice
also, nice dubdubs

The only thing I had a problem with someone else's diet was 'cause they were annoying about it. Instead of "sorry that's high in fat" or "I had too much carbs today, thanks though" when people offered them food, they scoffed and acted like people should've known they were trying to eat healthy.

>People freaking out about octopus
Do you live among the fucking Amish or what?

This. Move to a better place OP without rednecks. Also Octopus is GOAT.

Dude fuck them. Holy shit nigga I'm salivating, that shit looks good. Where'd you get the octopus?

>pen exploded in my pocket the other day and had to go home early so nobody would make ink jokes

Holy fucking shit I'm dying here.

>chinese whispers
the fuck?

If someone, anyone, brought octopus to my work and it was noted by all the they'd get octopus jokes made about them for at least a few weeks.

Its what people do user. It's how people derive pleasure from mundane shit like work. They make jokes about whatever comes along. It's called having a good sense of humour you fucking autist.

People are afraid of anything "different" and make fun of it as a defense mechanism

Octopus salad is different

Ergo, people make fun of your octopus salad

Not that hard. If you can't handle the bantz, bring in a normal fucking meal. Otherwise, eat whatever the fuck you want.

>>pen exploded in my pocket the other day and had to go home early so nobody would make ink jokes

>activating your autism at work on purpose

>tfw vegan
>tfw everyone calls my food gross
>tfw they say that while they stuff their face with animal corpses

Eat whatever the fuck you want but don't pretend vegetables are more gross than meat.

You reacted and are still reacting like an autistic bitch OP.
Man the fuck up.


These guys got it

>people like to make fun of me in a 'joking' way by doing things like pretending my arms are tentacles and making sucker noises when we shake hands

Lolol

white people are so stupid octopus is good how'd you make it into a "salad" is it just like cooked in lime like a ceviche? becuase thats what it lokos like.

Stopped reading right there

Share that recette, mon amis.

People are stupid about nutrition, OP. They can't think past what fad diets are. See pic related. When I actually showed a co-worker one time how she could lose quite a bit of weight while still eating quite well, she went ballistic and tried to accuse me of lying. I asked her what she thought of how I looked. Yet, I told her I only consume 1800 cals a day.

Once she took my advice instead of doing shit like pic related, she started losing the weight while still enjoying eating.

Octopus dont squirt ink....

Shit they actually do...i thought only squid did this. Damnit. Really tho man the fuck up n laugh

Why care, though? Why don't you just smile, chuckle and go along with it? Don't be autistic about it. Just make some light jokes in an ordinary tone. "Well, at least it isn't live the way Koreans like it." Ask them what they think is so weird about it, it could lead to a conversation where you get to say you just happen to like it after you tried it once, you like trying out unusual foods, mention how theres nothing unhealthy about it etc.

Most people react to individuals doing something different with a crowd mentality that has a strong presence in a work environment. People are just like that, you've probably done it yourself. It creates an inclusion-exclusion social atmosphere. The good thing is, if you've some social competence, it can be dispelled by you. If they react with continued banter, mocking and aversion, you've at least been honest and outspoken about it in a tone that isn't hostile or dismissive, rather amicable and a little humorous.

This obnoxiously thick former fatty at my gym will stop mid workout to eat a meal from her gym bag. Fucking weird

Both parents are surgeons, you'd think they know what they're doing. My father in particular does vascular surgery, leading to a burning hatred for fatties, and has to recommend diets to obese people ("Don't even bother coming back to this hospital if you haven't cut smoking, whisky, crackers and soda because I'm not wasting anymore time with you"). Yet he still emails me trash articles about X fad diet every once in a while and his nutrition knowledge doesn't go beyond "eat less, do sport and stop eating trash" (which to his credit is still more than most people).

My sister is overweight in med school and keeps buying into fad diets that don't work or tries to eat "healthy" but doesn't realize it doesn't matter that you eat organic fair trade gluten free food if it's super calorie dense and she does fuck all sport. It's sad because she tries really hard sometimes but can't last longer than a month because she has no willpower and doesn't know what she's doing.

My mother is overweight too, but she gave up on fad diets to eat mayonnaise from the jar, although she's made efforts lately after I snapped and told her I was ashamed of her and her revolting eating habits.

lol, is kvarg even a word in english? Good shit though.

Projecting Asian manlet detected.

Seafood is gay as shit, there are millions of better lifting foods

You lost me at the part where you wanted attention

i love how it's always

>regular people
or
>normies

with you guys

Okay listen here OP, your diet sucks.

Your only source of protein should be veal, it's the best meat out there because the calf was still a virgin when killed. The meat fibres are still filled with hopes and ambition.
As soon as an animal sexually matures it's all over.

once you stop giving a fuck what people think you will feel,and be a better person

Oh my god are you serious? What kind of juvenile retards do you work with? Octopus is one of the most common seafoods out there. What the fuck is so funny about it? People piss me off so fucking much with how juvenile and stupid they are.

haha your awkwardness is amusing to me. You should've rolled with it, asked your female boss if she's into tentacle porn.

I eat stuff like this at uni every single day, cold.
studying chemistry
Sometimes they say whoa you eat so much, nust be because your fit, huh? or stuff like this but in general
Everybody mires my delicious looking food and I get the understanding of other people.
Now I'm known as the swole guy.

Its because you did a very unorthodox thing and people responded with friendly banter. Its not from a lack of understanding or about jealousy you autist.
