Brainy and brawny go well together. That’s why today’s sponsor is ThinkGeek, a one stop web shop for the smart masses. Today’s prize is the the Homo Sapiens Caveman Kitchen Tool. Or as I’m re-naming it, the Grok Tool. It pounds. It smashes. It even…grates garlic? Yep, all that and you now have the ability to mercifully end the life of your spear-wounded prey. And whether you win or lose, check out ThinkGeek.com for fun stuff like killer bunny slippers, pice cubes, and previously featuredmiracle fruit.
The Contest:
If you were alive in the mid-1990’s, you may remember comedian Jeff Foxworthy’s empire of “You might be a redneck if…” humor. Today I’m looking for “You might be Primal if…” jokes. Think one up and leave it in the comment board.
Examples:
You might be Primal if you’ve been banned from your local grocery store for repeatedly violating the “No shirt, no shoes, no service” policy.
You might be Primal if you’ve never used an elevator. Ever.
You might be Primal if you prefer your apple with worms.
You might be Primal if you accidentally broke your neighbor’s second story window with a kettlebell.
You might be Primal if every butcher in America can recognize you on the spot.
You might be Primal if you measure friends, relatives, and children not by the mettle of their character, but by how far you could throw them.
You might be Primal if you’ve started to use Tabata intervals for dish washing, shopping, shaving, and dating.
You might be Primal if you make guests take off their shoes before leaving the house.
You might be Primal if you measure time by the number of cows you’ve consumed since an event occurred… “When did we take that trip to Portland?” “Oh, that was about 3 cows ago.”
Eligibility:
This prize is available to anyone in the world who has ever dreamed of mashing objects with a large chunk of sandstone.
The Contest End Time:
Midnight, tonight!
How the Winner Will Be Determined:
I’ll pick a handful of my favorites and let all of you decide the winner through a reader poll.
Update: With dozens of equally witty and humorous submissions I’ve decided to hold a random drawing for this prize. Check the contest page to see who has won!
Mark Sisson is the founder of Mark’s Daily Apple, godfather to the Primal food and lifestyle movement, and the New York Times bestselling author of The Keto Reset Diet. His latest book is Keto for Life, where he discusses how he combines the keto diet with a Primal lifestyle for optimal health and longevity. Mark is the author of numerous other books as well, including The Primal Blueprint, which was credited with turbocharging the growth of the primal/paleo movement back in 2009. After spending three decades researching and educating folks on why food is the key component to achieving and maintaining optimal wellness, Mark launched Primal Kitchen, a real-food company that creates Primal/paleo, keto, and Whole30-friendly kitchen staples.
No lie, I dated a girl with two kids that willing to (I wouldn’t let them) blow off an entire day with their bio Dad to hang with me for 20 minutes in the park, cause I actually climb trees barefoot; my nurse aide scrubs be damned.
*laugh* Yeah, a friend of mine is coming over to dinner tomorrow night, and when we were determining the time, I said “Great, I’ll pick up the steaks on Monday!”
She asked nervously, “Are we having anything besides steak?”
(We’re having broccoli beef with cauliflower rice.)
You might be primal if you
knick-knack, paddy whack,
give a dog a bone,
then chase it and catch it,
and then throw it as far as can
and then brake it and
suck the marrow out of it
and…
No, he doesn’t date people he couldn’t see himself marrying, according to him. She was your average grain eating vegan. Once when we went out for dinner, he insisted on frog legs. If he can’t share some sort of animal over a meal, it might kill him hehehe.
You might be primal, if you don’t join primal contests.
Sorry to spoil the party – I enjoyed MDA for a long time, but for me the posts and contest machinery of this month seem to be more adequate for a religious sect who needs self-affirmations than for people who just like information to stay healthy.
To each his own, JD. I hope you’ll come back in coming weeks once the contests are over and we get back into the swing of our regularly scheduled content. Cheers!
You might be Primal if you discover that, while your back was turned to fry up some eggs to go with breakfast, your 3-year-old consumed an entire stick of butter and half a side of uncured bacon…and, instead of scolding him, you felt strangely proud of your little Grok’s feat (true story!).
Before I had “discovered” MDA and PB, I was making cookies with a preschooler… she asked to lick the butter wrapper and I told her not to – that butter was an ingredient, not a food.
Gosh, I wish I could go back and change things on that day…
You might be primal if you find yourself cutting up raw liver for sauteed liver and onions, only to discover you eaten more than half of it as you get ready to throw it in the pan to cook.
You might be primal if the most stressful thing in your life is the imaginary sabre-tooth tiger that lives in your basement …and what the neighbors think when it chases you to work in the morning.
A Nation Geographic reporter has to discover you and explain why he/she is watching you from afar, explain his/her fancy clothes(explain a whole lot really using pictures because you can’t read or understand the language). You then end up on Good Morning America the next week explaining (in pictures) why you look so healthy and fit. Then you eat everything in sight while in NYC and get so fat and diseased that everyone loses their interest in you!! You then make it on the Jerry Springer show the next week and eventually become so distraught you head back home. After a month of living in your old ways you lose the weight and look great again. The next week you see another National Geographic reporter looking at you from afar and club him/her instantly. This is being videotaped by-the-way. You end up with a name….Yeti.

…instead of sneaking your own candy/soda into a movie, you sneak in bacon.
…when eating in the cafeteria, you take three grilled chicken sandwiches and throw away all the buns.
If instead of milk and bread, you stockpile bacon and eggs before a snow storm…you might be primal.
If people hate you because you eat what you want, when you want, have fun while “working out”, actually enjoy living life, and you’re body is so damn sexy. . .you might me primal.
You might be primal when somebody tells you the butter you’re using is going to make you fat, you make sure to add a couple more pats of butter… then flip it over to the other side and do it again.
