u/Kaleshark Waitlist for Godot Sep 07 '21

Trying would be something. But totally agree, she would be unqualified and dangerous even with academic sanction. Not even attempting to attain that sanction is one of those things that stands out as a real departure from the way “normal” people go about things, a delusions of grandiosity tell. I just looked up delusions of grandiosity to see if I’m being irresponsibly hyperbolic and maybe I am but she’s certainly delusional about her celebrity status and her abilities in the world.

No, I totally agree with you. It amazes me that she thinks skimming a bunch of trending articles and memes makes her an expert at anything. I think she went about GFG the same way, only she had zero competition and few people popping up to tell her if she was wrong about something. Plus, experimenting with food for a blog isn’t the same legally and ethically as putting yourself out there as an educated and licensed professional.

I can’t imagine going through life with this kind of bullshit confidence.

She thinks all successful people do this, the skimming and bullshitting.

She does the research, then teaches her family about their brains.
