Fat and stupid in America

[jackangel]

WOW!! Your post was filled with little anecdotal examples of human nature that I can find in nearly every part of the world In a nation of 300 million you can find aspects of it that annoy you! Astounding!?!?! How did we ever make it without your amazing skills of observation, Sherlock?

As for weight, the US is showing the consequences of economic liberty. A free market system allows for greater access to goods, food being one, that centrally planned or heavily regulated societies do not. What a person does with goods (food) is their choice, and their burden to bear, unless you wish to live in a totalitarian system, where every aspect of life is regulated.

Learn how to think objectively and then you will not be so uptight about shit that means less than nothing in the grand scheme of life. Until then, your whining is just as annoying as the old crotchety lady you complained about.

translation: i'm fat.

6 billion people on the planet... Only a few hundred million are worthy of life.

If being fat and stupid is the consequence of economic liberty give me poverty anyday, at least then I'll have an excuse to whine.

I spent my Thanksgiving in America. I was surrounded by the fat and the stupid - frequently many would fill those descriptions in one loud and obnoxious flesh package.

People driving around in their monstrosities, totally oblivious to the world around them, looking desperately for new things that they can buy on credit to try to fill the void in their life.

I don't know what is more pathetic - those people and their cluelessness, or the fact that I will spend my life continually searching for ways to take those people's money.

To my credit, I didn't even hit anyone throughout the entire trip. Although I can think of about 10 times when I had to show great restraint.

i feel your pain.

we are becoming
degenerate wastes of meat

I can think of 3 countries that you would never find it in - all in varying degrees of prosperity.

I maintain that America is "teh suk".

I also maintain that you too are teh suk. And like someone else said, you totally have to be a fat slob.

this post reminds me of a tape howard stern got a hold of. it was kate hudson (goldie hawn's daughter) going on about how GAUCHE and loud americans are, with their "piles of food" and "please pass the ketchup!"

meanwhile kate seems to have forgotten she was born the daughter of a movie star, had her movie star career handed to her, is rich, and beautiful. she would this life somewhere else? she had no idea how awful and pretentious she came off.

btw, i am thin and successful. so are most of my friends and family. fat people don't bother me.
