"My God, I am starving. If I do not find something to eat soon, I will surely die. Hunger consumes my life. My young body is hunched and weak, as if I were an old man. Some days, I pass the time by counting my bones."--Onion, Point Counterpoint: I Am So Starving vs. I Am So Starving, Dec. 16, 1998

'I was just really hungry and I wanted to have an In-N-Out burger,' she said."--CNN, Sept. 8, 2006
