Being fat makes you stupid. It's a fact...
Discussion
I've always said fat people are stupid since I was a kid. Seems I was right again... er, sorry, I mean being perceptive.

This experiment also seems to be doing the rounds on 'tinternet.
Now I feel better about persecuting fat people all my life. Actually, no, I felt fine with that anyway.

How long have you been mocking fat people ?
Mattikake :
At 36yo I had a 36in chunky belly with love handles, <13in biceps, 36in chest. I was biking >50km a week and killing myself in the gym. From 30yo onwards I was slowly watching the fat increase despite my efforts.
At 38yo I now have a <32in waist, >14in biceps, 40in chest, and a 6-pack (if I wax ). I walk 30km a week and work half as hard in the gym. I'm now exactly how I want to be and am in the happy place of "maintenance". This means I can indulge in any foods and be lax in exercise.
The difference? Knowledge and the will to implement it. Eating properly, exercising properly, and integrating both properly.
Sorting yourself out can be done. All you have to do is want it more than whatever your current indulgences are and only make a few sacrifices here and there.
Touche.
36in waist for someone 5'11 isn't fat, but it nearly was (and a 24 BMI should be classed as fat IMO!). Middle age spread was on it's way... but seeing as I always mocked fat people since the first time I saw a fat kid at primary school try to run, I thought I'd better do something about it.

So you are openly saying that you persecute other people. Is that not stupid.http://www.livescience.com/20329-sugar-stupid.html

I would rather be chunky and a nice person . Than thin and a dick head that takes the p-- and persecutes other people for how they look.
You sound a really nice person. Not.

tongue in cheek stuff (I hope!!)
You are setting yourself up nicely for a karma induced stroke/heart attack/bout of cancer there me old fruit. Happens to the fittest and strongest of us and can strike at any time.Chunky people are a bit like smokers. They obvisouly consume more and thus pay more into the system, generally speaking.
There are whole industries and parts of the medical profession that would disappear overnight if all the chubbers got eaten by lions.
Swings and roundabouts.
There is a certain irony in the idea that eating more calories than you need is a sign of waste and decadence, unless you then burn them off by exercising, in which case it is all fine and dandy. The only person true to that moral framework is someone who eats like a sparrow and makes no unnecessary physical exertion whatsoever.
