While researching this latest installment of Food Coma I came across this quote from Sri Sathya Sai Baba the highly revered Indian spiritual leader.
One who is addicted to intoxicating drinks and meat eating and leads a sensuous life is a demonic being. Such a person is intensely selfish and has no feeling or consideration for others.
-- Sri Sathya Sai Baba
I really dont know anything about the esteemed Sri Sathya Sai Baba (from here on out to be known as Triple S B or 3SB, wassup my brotha!?) other than that he is a peaceful man and he espouses love and unity and morality and that people should lead more purposeful lives. Very nice.
Hes obviously never been to France.
Or the Chicago Chophouse.
Demonic being? Selfish? Dems fightin woids.
Ive been called a demonic being before for many reasons but for living a normal life of sex, drugs and meat? Who does this prick think he is? Like a steak and a glass of red wine is the bane of humanity. You know whats worse for humanity? How about a hole in the ozone from the methane gas from all those delicious cows walking around India taking dumps wherever they please. Ive got a solution for that, send them all to Ted Nugents house.
Mmmmmm, sacred NY Strip.
And I really take umbrage with the idea that eating meat makes you selfish and that you have no feelings or consideration for others. Who bought dinner the other night Triple S? Oh right, no pockets in your lungi.
But what if the Sai Baba is right? What if all of us who eat of the flesh, imbibe from the grape (or corn or mash or potato or wherever your poison come from) and seek carnal knowledge are demons?
It sure seemed like a hell on earth when my mom used to make my brother and I eat liver when we were kids. The kitchen my moms own private Abu Ghraib and my brother and I its only prisoners forced to clean our plates of that vile greasy offal yet now I love Haggis.
The hangover I had the other day after too many bottles of Leroy Meursault at Gordon Ramsay definitely had a demonic quality to it yet Id do it all over again even knowing the Hellish outcome.
And sex can kill you but when did that actually stop anyone?
Its all starting to make sense.
Get Yusuf Islam on the phone cause were gonna ride that Peace Train right up Triple S Bs cow-lovin ass. Better to eat, drink and fuck in Hell than be a sober vegan virgin in Heaven. Thanks Triple S for helping me accept who I am and helping me to love myself. Im a selfish Demon and I hate you all! Whos in for dinner at Peter Luger? First round on me.
