It's worth the two hour wait to download this and watch it on loads of caffeine

We have got to make more of an effort toward simply sharing basic, fundamental news with friends, colleagues, family, extended family, and online acquaintances. This film is a quick way to get to the bottom line.
If you know any other films along these lines that are modern and accurate, throw it my way guys and gals.

Oh, I thought you were using sarcasm in a rhetorical way.
I'm on the same page otherwise.

Alright well I guess I can explain since my friends have put me on the spot for some reason.
With regard to an accurate definition of soberness, we go by the dictionary which even then fails to accurately give humanity an agreeable, useful definition.
Caffeine, like tobacco and alcohol, is a psycho-pharmacologically active drug. It is among the world's current BIG FIVE crops influencing human cognition: 1. Grapes 2. Tobacco 3. Caffeine (from Coffee plants) 4. Cannabis and 5. The Papaver.
Any use of caffeine on any level is accurately defined as drug use. It alters perception and causes a transformation in human thinking and interaction with the world.
When we use the word sober, we really are trying to say "focused and unbiased, true and fair to the world." But that is a stretch for all of us, because ultimately - by the strictest of definitions - soberness is more like a very temporary state of openness. It is the removal of all ego, all intention, and the completion of pure, untainted cosmic consciousness.

So is it ok if I have some drugs in my system as long as I'm focused and unbiased?

So if you eat something you're no longer sober? There's chemicals in your body acting on the food in your stomach, releasing more and more chemicals.
