So explain to me how the argument that people become overweight in order to not work or cheat the government. Is it all the fat mans master plan?

I don't think that was her point though. And the whole:

"I think being fat is not good. It shows some lack of self respect"

"YOU BASTARD. MY AUNT HAD CANCER, YOU ARROGANT FOOL."

isn't exactly debate winning material either.

mudkipz? I have no idea where you got that from..


Anyways,
Her point seems arrogant and closed minded.
Saying people become that fat because its part of there evil ways...
We could say the same about people that cut themselves and hurt themselves if we are talking about people with no self respect.

I saw the word "some" in the post. Not "everybody does it to cheat the government."

Well either way she makes it look like "some" speak for all.

Um. I wasn't trying to sit there and take my aunt's death out on someone. I was trying to prove a point.
I was trying to say that she did everything possible to stay away from it because two of her older sister and younger brother both died from lung cancer and yet she still got it.
My point was that even if people try to prevent something [example: obesity] it doesn't mean that they can prevent it 100%.

There. Now that I had to break that down into lamest terms.

You didn't have to "break it down" for me, as I fully understood what you said. But it's still illogical. Obesity is not even in the same league as cancer. You can do everything to prevent cancer and still get it. But if you do all within your reach, 9/10 times you can prevent obesity.

... Now who's blowing things way out of proportion?

Why don't you address the topic full on instead of criticizing someone's analogy.

It seems like you and Jess are being deliberately obtuse to avoid the subject at hand.

More people are fatter these days because more people are stupid these days.

Just like increased global temperatures are inversely proportional to the decrease of pirates sailing the seas.

Duh.






Seriously, though, I highly doubt getting out of work is the master plan when diabetes, heart attacks, and not being able to squeeze their fat ass through the door is the downfall of the plan.

Don't forget enemas and colostomy bags.
