To give a serious reply to an undeservingly silly post, mocking isn’t helpful. But speaking the truth is.
About 18 years ago I worked in a high end buffet restaurant. One of the benefits was getting to eat about all the eggs benedict, etc. that you wanted. After a year or more there a co-worker came up to me and said, “You’re getting fat. See that guy over there? When he started, he had a trim athletic build. Do you want to look like him?”
It was about the most blunt thing I had heard anyone say, and it was just the shock I needed. I trimmed back down over the next few months and generally kept in shape for years. Until about 9 months ago when I looked in the mirror and remembered this. And, I was able to say it to myself.
I have no idea what my body fat is, but it’s back to a pretty good level. I owe a good part of that to a co-worker’s willingness to speak the uncomfortable truth.
I know that 9 times out of 10, you’ll just make the person feel bad. But there is that other 1 out of 10 that will be ready to hear it. In my book, it’s worth speaking the truth for the few that will hear it.
That’s my favorite meal too.

Fat people are fat, big deal? Not really, as long as it has no impact on your life. When the world is overpopulated and food stocks are low then it will be an issue cos the greedy fat bastards will need to eat less or cause the rest of us to die.
Funny thing is I know alot of fat people and it’s always the same thing, ‘I don’t even eat much, im just unlucky that i gain weight easy.’ They also rarely eat much in front of others at work, normally a small sandwich or bag of crisps, then everyones like ‘yeah you always eat little so it’s bad luck you put so much weight on!’

Yeah I noticed that too, and they always try to have a salad…[/quote]
Sure, If you consider throwing a pizza on top of a salad so it doesn’t grease up the table “having a salad”.
My personal favorite is “I’d like 3 tripple cheese burgers, 2 large fries, an apple pie, and uh, oh yeah, A large diet Coke.”.

Alot of fat people hide the fact they eat alot in public, it’s like they’re trying to kid people into thinking they just have bad genes or something then secretly eat like a beast when alone or not around friends ie one of my overweight friends never once ate in front of me in 4yrs, even when at my house for a few hours he would turn everything down. His mum said he would always pig out before and after going out.
I think what separates fat people form different other groups form being discriminated is the fact that being fat is possibly a lifestyle choice. You cant pick and choose to be white or black,or retarded or gay (Last one might be up for debate) but you can choose to eat sensible and stay healthy than gorge yourself with food. Does it make it ok to to ridicule the fat,no. Is it acceptable? Somewhat. Is it funny? Yes. But so is racism if done right.

My thoughts exact, almost verbatim.
Heres 147 Billion reasons why obese people suck. I don’t care about peoples personal choices, live and let live, but when your behaviors effect my personal life, especially finacially, then go fuck yourself.
Now wouldn’t it be great if the country weren’t so PC and we could have healthcare insurance which could underwrite individuals? The smokers pay more, the fatties pay more, The people who workout and eat healthy pay less. Also people in high stress jobs pay more, fuck them too. I mean god forbid the people who use the most resources actually pay for it. Hell I already have to pay for people who are too poor to afford coverage. I bet MY actual healthcare premiums could be cut in half, now wouldn’t that be nice. It also might curb behavior a little when fatty McFatpants has to shell out an extra 2K per year for HIS healthcare coverage.

Hey, I fucking love fat people. You ever walk into a fat kid? Totally painless, like walking into a pillow. They were also the reason I had a job flipping burgers as a teenager - them patties are in-demand! And healthcare! I plan to work in that field; they’ll be paying my bills later on. Bariatrics ftmfw!
And what, you think motorized gurneys, elongated needles, extra-large coffins and toilet reinforcers just appear out of thin air? These are all booming industries, providing thousands of jobs. And let’s not forget all the funny fat people that have brought us laughter and joy over the years.

I guess that we should start a thread on mocking the mentally ill.
I’m not obese but I have seen how the obese are treated and it is sick.
Obesity can be caused by all sorts of things, for example drug interactions and glandular problems, so what is so friggin funny about that?
It’s fine when you are in your twenties and you can eat/drink anything and not gain an ounce but I can guarantee that a large percentage of the posters on this site will get fatter at some point in their lives.
I think that immaturity and ignorance is a far greater epidemic than obesity, they are coming out with new drugs to control fat. I don’t see anything on the horizon for being a dickhead.

OP? How bored or boring are you that this is what you do for amusement and then are hoping to get other people to join you?
I just don’t spend that much time thinking about other people.
Holy crap, this thread got three pages?

Why is that it that its fine to use the fatal attribution error for everything but obesity? I’m sure if someone lets the door slam in your face, you don’t think “oh they must have a musculo-skeletal disorder that impedes on their ability to hold the door open for me.” No you’re annoyed at their laziness. Yet with obesity people want to score brownie points by assuming every single person has a glandular problem.
That’s not even mentioning the contradiction in your post where you claim people who are fat have glandular problems, and people who are not fat (posters here) will one day be fat (even though they apparently do not have glandular problems).
It sounds to me like you used to be “healthy” when you were 20 and played a sport recreationally, then did some benching before going out for some beers. Now you’re middle aged and have a bit of a gut and think it’s an inevitable part of life.

Why do that when I could be thinking about myself 
haha.
Is anyone else disturbed by how many overhangs and man boobs there are in this ad?
Actually no I dont have a gut, Iam way over my 30’s and I am a Powerlifter not just a bencher. Just because someone is obese doesn’t and shouldn’t be reason to mock anyone. Memento, the reality of it is that as you get older the metabolism slows, so yes many will end up fat and not due to glanular issues either so how is that contradictory? Someone lets a door go in front of me I would guess that they didn’t have eyes in the back of their head. My point is that not all people are fat because they are lazy. So what is your point?
I would guess that you are in your twentys and live at home and spend 2 hours a day on a treadmill and read Oxygen or some such mag. I won’t mock you though I have empathy.
There are some fat people who have medical issues, however probably 90% of them eat too much and don’t exercise enough. Food is an addiction, just like drugs.
I say do whatever makes you happy, even if that means being fat. I doubt many fat people actually enjoy being fat. How fat is too fat? if you have bad eating habits, you’re probably just going to get fatter!
what really bugs me is fat little kids, hello! Kids diet’s are controlled by their parents…Parents should teach their kids to be healthy and to have discipline.

Yeah! I realise I shot my mouth off in a stupid way when I started this forum, and whilst I’m not going to ask you to change any negative opinion you have about me on the basis of that, I would like you to read at least some of the posts here. A lot of them point out that I’m a douche, but a lot more are making serious points. I’m not saying that I’m somehow responsible for any kind of serious disccusion here, I just think that if you just skip to the last page and tell me how wrong I am your doing everyone else an injustice.
