I don't know about y'all, but I'm not sick (no pun intended) of talking about the pandemic yet. It's fun living in a hellscape where we've been seeing people get seriously ill, die, and pile up by the hundreds of thousands!

As you've surely heard, Kevin Stitt has announced that tomorrow, December 3rd, will be a day of prayer and fasting across the state for people affected by the Coronavirus pandemic. As our obesity rankings show, fasting may be a new concept to many Oklahomans, so I thought I'd share some tips on how to get through it and not cheat...

Sample every drink from Sonic

I'm honestly not sure what the rules are for fasting, but you're allowed to drink sugar water, right? If so, stop by Sonic for Happy Hour and start with the Water-family of slushes (Ocean, Swamp, etc) and then transition to Limeades before finally going with traditional soft drinks with vanilla flavoring. When you're done, leave the the carhop whatever change is in your cupholder, and then just drive away to vomit.
