"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

The next time your life hits a bump in the road...
...just reflect on what it must be like to draw nutrition from eating lice: "Defector Reveals How Orphaned North Koreans Survived The Great Famine".
The defector's story and condition are horrific. But after watching Andrew Zimmern eat grubs, ants, etc and drink blood, lice doesn't seem that shocking. Of course, he and his hosts have options.

I read the article, and I'd rather not imagine it, thanks.

I recommend the book "Nothing to Envy," about North Korean defectors. Many of them document their lives during the famine.
