Just out of curiosity, is it possible for organics to live consuming nothing but liquids?

Also, do the refueling sessions ever serve drinks that glow pink?

I've seen a number of people talking like this on the board. Are you. . . something that's not organic?

And it is possible to survive on a liquid diet, but not with the liquids they serve here. I don't think they have the right nutrients in them. But I'm not really an expert or anything.

[ruthless_hunter]

No, I'm a sentient mechanical being.

So, in other words, I may have to continue consuming solid matter?

[superdynamic]

A. . . wow. I know of humanoid mechanical beings, but they aren't sentient. That would make things a lot more complicated I knew people here were from different worlds, but that's. . . really different. You must be able to get out of here really easily, then. Unless -- wait, why are you asking about how to eat anyway?

Yeah, pretty much, unless you can convince the staff to put you on a liquid diet for medical reasons or something. I don't think those are that great for you, either.

[ruthless_hunter]

Because I've somehow been turned into a flesh creature you stupid human

Well, it looks as if I may have to settle for solids for now.

[notachick]

It is possible, but only for a certain number of days. After that, the lack of nutrition will likely kill you♥

And...no. I don't think I've ever seen a drink glow pink.

Slag

If I have to keep consuming solids at this rate, I probably will go insane for real.

[notachick]

Do you dislike the taste?

[ruthless_hunter]

The orange drink I had during the first refueling period was not too bad, but the flat square with the indentions was too dry for my taste.

I just can't believe I, the greatest bounty hunter on Cybertron, have been reduced to a fleshy slag-crunching machine.

I was told that eating would make you feel better, and that nutrients are important.

Going without them is irksome, apparently. Your body will complain loudly until you do something about it.

Re: [scribbly]

[ruthless_hunter]

I don't know what nutrients are, but they sure as slag aren't making me any happier.

Well, if only for the sake of satifying this weak body, I'd better stick to these human eating requirements.

[haplesstracker]

You'd need to drink a lot of them for all the food groups. So you'd need the fruit juice, the vegetable juice, the milk, and...I don't know, do they make meat juice? I suppose you could drink the drippy bits.

[ruthless_hunter]

Fruit? Vegetable? Milk? What are you talking about?

Are these food types? If food can be converted to liquid, then why do all these humans keep telling me that I need to consume solid matter?

[haplesstracker]

Because unlike pretty much every 'bot here bar me, they actually like the taste. Burnt flesh just doesn't blend well.

I dunno, maybe it's a tracker thing.

[no_side_effects]

It is possible, but not advisable if you wish to stay in a reasonable physical condition.

[ruthless_hunter]

Well, physical condition is very important to me. I doubt I'll get to apply my function while here, but that's no excuse to let my physical condition worsen. Not anymore than it has, anyway.
