Assuming your really hungry, and you have a bunch of hard boiled eggs available.. how many can you eat until you are totally full?

When I was a lad I ate four dozen eggs
Every morning to help me get large
And now that I'm grown I eat five dozen eggs
So I'm roughly the size of a barge

Yes, but there is no way I will even try to eat 50 eggs.

So I will distract you all with a musical number

I love this movie so much. First watched it as kid it made a deep impression on me. Still does, some 50 years after I first watched it.

I have grown to understand more and more as life goes on why a man would set himself to the task of cutting the heads off all the parking meters.

If they’re deviled eggs, I try to stop before $20, so probably 4 dozen under Biden, and maybe 5-6 eggs (if I can find them) under Trump.

[-] Gradually_Adjusting@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

In a frittata, I can probably go six ish at a guess. Just fried on toast, assuming they're the big ones I'm just having two.

[-] Corno@lemm.ee 1 points 2 months ago

Alright, this is a question for me! 😊

I can eat 6 boiled XL eggs at once and do so on a regular basis.

[-] TheRedSpade@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

By "at once" I hope you mean "in one sitting", otherwise you're surely risking some sort of jaw injury.

[-] Corno@lemm.ee 2 points 2 months ago

Haha I do mean in one sitting! But now I have the image of me opening my mouth wide like Kirby trying to eat 6 XL eggs at once! 😂

[-] magpie@mander.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

I can have 3 eggs and then its not so much that I full as it is I am violently ill. Egg intolerance? idk

[-] jet@hackertalks.com 1 points 2 months ago

yeah, it sounds like it! you shouldn't eat eggs!

[-] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 1 points 2 months ago

2 to 4 depending on what I eat it with

[-] moxlas@discuss.online 1 points 2 months ago

5-6 depending on the size with 3-4 slices of bread. If it was just egg, 7+

[-] Num10ck@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

my personal record is 8 hard boiled eggs. my stomach really hurt and my farts were ridiculous.

[-] flamingo_pinyata@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

4 is my standard portion, I usually buy medium sized eggs. If I was pressed I could probably eat 6.

[-] RBWells@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Deviled eggs? Probably 4 (8 halves)if it was all I'm eating. They are just so delicious.

Straight hard boiled eggs? If I have more than 3 I'm making egg salad so I don't know. But would consider 2 of them a main dish, plenty enough if I have a salad or something to go with them. And 2 is all I'd want at one time.

[-] Dark_Arc@social.packetloss.gg 1 points 2 months ago

I think around 4 will do it. They say your stomach is what, two fists or so large? That seems about right

[-] Cephalotrocity@biglemmowski.win 0 points 2 months ago

Depends. If they are deviled/stuffed eggs I can eat at least a dozen at a party without even realizing.

[-] Flagstaff@programming.dev 0 points 2 months ago
[-] Cephalotrocity@biglemmowski.win 1 points 2 months ago

Minus the few that others manage to get to before I do.

How many eggs do you have to eat before thoughts of the violence and cruelty you are committing impinge upon your consciousness?

[-] jet@hackertalks.com 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

All food is part of a lifecycle. Whatever you eat, something has died for it. Yes, even plants.

But do we really need to have this argument every time? There are plenty of vegan communities to pound the pulpit in, I even upvote you in your vegan community posts...

We are just here trying to have a good time. Just have a egg and relax.

[-] jerkface@lemmy.ca -3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Whatever you eat, something has died for it. Yes, even plants.

Okay? So what? That's irrelevant, and I think you know that. I think you are just trying to distract yourself from processing ideas and feelings that are inconvenient for you.

No one is against the death of any living creature. That's a ridiculous straw-man.

You cannot be cruel to a plant. You cannot commit violence against a plant. You cannot commit atrocity against a plant. These are things you do every time you buy an egg. Plants DON'T HAVE EXPERIENCES. The experiences of animals are real and matter.

It's funny how plants rights advocates only seem to exist in the presence of people appealing for compassion to animals. Funny, transparent, and pathetic.

Do you know why people don't have empathy for animals? Because they are cowards. Experiencing the feelings of creatures that you abuse so heartlessly HURTS more than you are even willing to understand. So you just block it all out and pretend it isn't even happening. You make stupid little arguments that ignore the point, just to distract yourself from thinking about that very point. It doesn't matter that you're making the same arguments that have been refuted a million times before, because you are not interested in engaging in good faith, you just need a distraction.

From your own fucking cruelty and violence. Never allowing yourself to even consider that you can JUST STOP being cruel and violent. Because then you'd have to admit to yourself that you've been manipulated into being a monster all your life.

you are not interested in engaging in good faith

your accusation of bad faith is, itself, bad faith.

from your first comment here, you are distracting from the intent of the original post to grandstand

[-] nsrxn@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

Plants DON’T HAVE EXPERIENCES.

you can't prove this

[-] nsrxn@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

You cannot be cruel to a plant. You cannot commit violence against a plant. You cannot commit atrocity against a plant. These are things you do every time you buy an egg.

every sentence here is false.

[-] nsrxn@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

creatures that you abuse

there is no reason to believe they are abusing anything

[-] nsrxn@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 months ago

The experiences of animals are real and matter.

whether something matters is subject to individuals values. something that matters to me might not matter to you.
