I have a brilliant fix for this. We could fly them to the U.S. and employ them as PR figureheads for the bailouts; "We're too big to fail"
Hell, the marketing practically writes itself.

That family is so pathetic, it's almost unbelievable.

Well, they could start by not consuming 3000 calories everyday. Did they try that?

If fat wouldnt be lighter than water they could be used as ship anchors.

They screwed up their one shot at life.

And into the Sahara, shipping sand.

Works wonders: the excercising, the sweating.

Put these people in the dictionary under the 'Fail at life' entry.

Hereditary obesity is an issue, but it can be overcome with a healthy diet and exercise. Sure, they have to work harder at it than the rest of us, but it's nothing that a normal person can't do.

Obesity is a huge problem (no pun intended) where I come from (Wisconsin). People like to blame their genes, and that may have something to do with it, but the real reason is their lifestyle. They get up in the morning, SIT at the breakfast table, SIT in their big cars on their drive to work, SIT in their office all day, SIT in their car on the drive home, SIT in front of the TV at home, SIT at the dinner table, SIT in front of the TV again, and go to bed. Add in a ton of fatty foods, and you get a lot of fat people.

These folks ought to play some sports or get in the gym. It's not just healthy, it's fun. It's not like they don't have the time.

I have no issues with fat people... they are people too. they deserve the respect everyone else deserves. But saying they are fat a** and cant get there fat meat slabs off the couch and work is a load of s*i%. They arnt too fat to go get that cheese cake out of the ice box are they. or that peanut butter on the top shelf. There fat is just a good excuse to not work.

If I were them I would be imbarased. Geting known for being fat and being paid because of this.

AVGWarhawk 03-18-09 08:24 PM

Wow, the blonde on the right is hot:o

A Very Super Market 03-18-09 08:40 PM

I sincerely hope you're joking. As for their excuse for not working, I swear, I have a teacher who is fatter than any of them, so I doubt the validity of that.

Task Force 03-18-09 08:50 PM

yea. ive seen fatter people than them working perfectly fine.
