“Never tell your partner her diet’s not working.”
The Sage has survived wars, plagues, unspeakable soups, and several committee meetings — and yet he insists that nothing on Earth is more perilous than commenting on a partner’s diet. His solemn warning today is simple: “Never tell your partner her diet’s not working.”
According to The Sage, this is not a statement — it is a declaration of war. Even if you are technically correct, mathematically accurate, and supported by scientific data, you are still wrong in every way that truly matters. Diets are not just nutritional plans; they are emotional ecosystems balanced on hope, biscuits, and quiet determination.
The Sage advises a safer alternative approach: if asked, respond only with vague encouragement such as, “You look great,” or, “That salad seems very… committed.” Never mention scales, inches, portions, or mirrors under any circumstances. And remember: silence is not cowardice — it’s wisdom.
