Fat does not mean lazy or slob. I've seen skinny, physically fit people who are slobs. I just think that we shouldn't associate fat with lazy and slob. Some people are just over weight.

For me the problem is the attitude. There are lots of reasons for people to be overweight that have nothing to do with personal hygiene, laziness, or overeating. The attitude that overweight people are "shyt"--what a delicate way to put it, eh--is pretty repulsive.<br><br>

The lazy slob part was just more or less a quote of what he said earlier. Of course I realize that many times, someone is going to be overweight no matter what they do or eat. But it's the guy that sues McDonalds for being 180lbs overweight because he didn't realize that eating 2 super-sized meals a day for the last 5 years would make him overweight! Sorry, I've got no sympathy for them at all.<br><br>And yes, the "shyt" comment is pretty stupid of him, but he's young, and he hasn't figured out that in a very short time, he's going to be gaining weight, losing hair, listening to music at a much lower volume and coming to the startling realization that big tits aren't the only important thing in the world! <br><br>[color:green]When you eat a can of beans you can't be sure which one made you fart.</font color=green>

Well in some cases obesity is a medical condition that can't be controlled unfortunately. In those cases it is a physiological problem and has nothing to do with the will power of the individual. As much as they may try and want to slim down, they just can't due to the way their body's physiology works. <br><br>

Right--I was going to ask if he'd seen a picture of me <br><br>By the way, Giz, I wasn't thinking about your post when I said the lazy slob part--I was thinking of the one you were quoting. Sorry if I wasn't clear about that.<br><br>

i think it says ..Fat people SHYT ME....i didnt say they are SHIIT, their obeseness is a drain on our health system, and they can do something about it. Eating lo-cal, lo joule high fibre diet foods is a crock of pooh they get sucked into. The USA has the most OBESE people of any other nation. Get off that bloody couch, put down the remote control and talk a walk...yeah a few laps around the globe might be a good start, <br>Sensitive bunch aren't we....must be a few gut busting slobs on line this week, <br>Diabeties, Heart attacks, clogged arteries,<br>Gee next time i have a go at someone it will be the smokers, another bunch of LOSERS<br>Get off the bandwagon and walk outside in the real world and see there are Too Many FAT people, taking up valuable space.<br><br>

yeah well Australia is the second fattest.. probably only because we have far fewer people.<br>In reality whatever you give, you get. <br>So don't you see that your losers rant is taking up valuable space?<br>That which makes you think that calling someone a loser gives you any credit, would seem to beyond any creditability.<br>If health is your jingoism then being here would only negate your own belief.<br>Sitting in front of a computer may well lead to unhealthy symptoms.<br>One of those being, one's perception of where exactly the real world exists.<br><br>and for one whom professes to know so much about being an alcoholic.. does this not also place you firmly in the driving seat of the biggest losers of all time?<br><br><br><br>
