This AMA has been outstanding overall, but this answer is by far the most compelling. As far as I'm concerned, permanently changing your diet is like quitting smoking or giving up another terrible addiction. People don't take unhealthy diet lifestyles as seriously as a chemical dependency, but these two concepts are incredibly similar. This has been my experience since I began losing weight in late 2011, when I became 70 pounds overweight.

I have made some major changes in my life over the past year, and my diet was among them. These changes have helped me lose over 50 pounds out of an approximate total goal of 80. My transformation has motivated me to live an active, productive and happy life. I never thought I would live this way, or that such a way of living even existed.

Thanks for doing this AMA. I had never heard of you until now, but I'm definitely gonna look into your story, your work, and your book.

Hello Mr. S.W.A.I.M.! Big fan of your work, and of Cracked.com, so thanks for doing another AMA!

My question for you: How does your visibility via Cracked.com affect your personal world? It seems that you and your team have gained a lot of momentum and recognition over the past year, and I'm grateful to have watched your careers grow since I started following Cracked in 2008. How do you deal with the intensity and the pressure of being so recognized in internet comedy? How have things changed since you started (and finished) making Kill Me Now?

Thanks again! As someone who has budding aspirations to consider doing some form of comedy, you inspire me quite a bit. I'm looking forward to the release of the film!
