whenever I eat bread and a thick soup or stew, I like to imagine that I'm in some fantasy realm, fueling up for the next quest.

what little scenarios or games do you play in your head while you eat?

I like to pretend that I'm happy.

Sometimes I pretend like I'm eating with an imaginary family or my favorite fictional characters.

In middle school we once did some math problems in class, and this was one of the worksheets. As a kid, I always got hungry wondering what a "Galaxy Burger" was like, and the term still occasionally pops into my head when I'm eating McD's. I imagine that I'm eating a futuristic space-burger of some kind.

>>21428615 (OP)
Pretending to have company. They are enjoying the food I made. We like each other.

I like to imagine I'm eating myself to death because of depression. Only pretendin tho!

>>21428638
This one used to make me hungry too, but I didn't think about it as much when I ate pizza. Galaxy Burger was my jam.

>Sometimes I pretend like I'm eating with an imaginary family
that's what I do every day
well kinda

over the years I had various paper cutouts to sit with me at the table
usually from some TV show I was just watching

for big events like my birthday or Christmas I take out the table extender and sit down more "people"
makes me feel like I have lots of friends and family

once, a few years ago, I had a friend over
of course I put away my papery family
but it felt lonely with just one person at the table

>what little scenarios or games do you play in your head while you eat?
Not what you're asking, but I used to dream up good meals and snacks for nights of raiding. These are the okay to eat items for sitting the fork down, taking breaks, taking bites or sips and back to the game ideas. Fueling up for quests is more about getting sloshed and talking on the headset to friends, no stresses and relaxing.. Social time. I don't game much anymore past 10 years. It's just too time consuming. I think the good ol days have been replaced by chinese bots.

Are you in your Star Wars pajamas when you eat that or not?

>>21428633
That looks like hell

>>21428679
You will get used to it

>>21428633
why are there boards on the windows?

/r9k/ seems to have crept into /ck/, which is fine, since I'm a weirdo too
But... all you lonely chuds, wanting to be around people, wanting families...
Give me a deserted island
I'd love to have to never see or talk to another human again

But.. but food...
Fine. Fresh crab and fish every day
Nothing better than fresh crab
Dry out seawater for salt for seasoning
Green coconut milk for when I'm constipated

>>21428638
Mike is a fatty

>>21428702
I was like that in my 20s but in my 30s I've gotten pretty lonely and miserable. I bought a vr headset just to have human contact.

>>21428615 (OP)
I pretend my food is a miniature landscape with islands and seas and towns and that I'm a giant consuming it piece by piece as the people evacuate to the remaining food until it's all consumed and left as a barren wasteland.

>>21428615 (OP)
Lol I do a similar thing where I pretend I'm a hero having his first meal in days just shovelling down the soup with a massive hunk of bread

>>21428652
>large pizza for $9
jesus save us

>>21428688
To keep the bears out

When I worked as a prep cook, handling steak chunka for Mr. Mike's, I pretended it was human meat. Don't tell anyone, please. Also, sorry this wasn't about eating, but rather cooking. My apologies.

When I eat Chinese noodles of any variety, I always pretend I'm Deckard in Blade Runner.

>>21428652
I don't know how to do these questions.

>>21428633
Would you rather live in a hellhole like this, but be too stupid to know how bad you have it, or live in a nice area, but be smart enough to keep striving for better, but never getting it.

I would rather keep seeking better for myself than be a mudslinging retard in a hovel

>>21428615 (OP)
Nice lentils, dude. What's your recipe? How do you get them so unctuous?

>>21429119
answer the question and maybe I’ll tell you

>>21428615 (OP)
Sometimes I'll watch stuff like Conan with a bigass beer and tear into a rotisserie chicken with my hands.

>>21429083
I'd rather be ignorant. I imagine it's like the bliss of being 12 again. All of the happiest people I know are completely clueless.

>>21429505
Theyre also the most confused and scared people when they come across one of the many, many things they dont understand

>>21428615 (OP)
Whenever I eat chicken off the bone such as with wings or rotisserie I pretend I'm some old hardened warrior refueling after a big battle. In reality I'm just some skinny weak retard.

>>21429194
Different anon but sometimes I’ll compress a piece of bread (minus the crust) into a cube and pretend it’s a futuristic nutrient pellet.

Please share your lentil recipe key item my lord

>>21429729
Sadly, I believe you weirdos

>>21429083
I'm sure people that live like this are aware that shits tough but they choose to make the most out of their situation and share meals together and do happy shit like that rather than sadpost on the internet about how hard their life is

>>21428615 (OP)
thats my reality and i remind myself that i am an offshoot of a long line of people who simply didnt die and whether i die or perpetuate doesnt matter because i have sinlings and cousins and it gives me motivation to just live a punishing life for no reason

>>21428615 (OP)
I'm not a mentally ill faggot

sometimes when I’m in public I like to pretend people are following me

I've always imagined I have an active imagination, but you people are sick!

>>21428615 (OP)
Oh mighty warrior, thou hast piqued mine interest. Doth thou mayhap be willing to share thine recipe?

>>21428633
Both bottles are EMPTY!

>>21428638
I'm mad that we've never gotten a space-themed burger joint.

>>21428615 (OP)
>>21428633
There's a Forgotten Realms user page that's full of recipes.

>>21428615 (OP)
sounds gay desu

>>21428615 (OP)
Whenever I'm eating something super processed, I think of the scene from 2001 where Dave Bowman and Frank Poole are chowing down on various pastes while watching the news broadcast of their mission.

>>21428615 (OP)
When im eating soup/bread, i like to pretend it's a cold winter night and im soldier in a ww1 trench with sounds of artillery firing out on the distance.

>>21428615 (OP)
I like to imagine that with every bite I take I'm inflicting unspeakable suffering and misery unto the innocent.

OH WAIT I AM DOING THAT BECAUSE I'M NOT VEGAN

>>21428741
Only fake Mike actually

>>21428615 (OP)
when i was little i was addicted to these things. i'd shove my mouth full of them, chew them up into a half-masticated mass, store them in each of my cheeks like a chipmunk, pretend i was actually eating chicken (was still too picky to even like tendies yet), and then slowly eat the masses over the course of a couple minutes. then i'd do it all over again.

>>21429083
I’d rather be happy with a big family who always has my back

>>21428615 (OP)
Sometimes when I cook I like to imagine what it would be like to cook for someone and them enjoying the food.

When I eat I like to pretend I’m hungry.

God I am so fat :/
