I love it when they say a certain waist size is fat without telling us how tall that person is allowed to be...

Apparently I'm really close to apple shaped, who knew...I always thought "apple" was more Rosanne Barr...

Wider seats for obese train passengers:

The seats are accompanied by signs picturing a rotund customer with the words "Priority chair for obese people".

They have been installed in response to the country's growing obesity problem, in an attempt to encourage larger people to use public transport.

But transport bosses say that they are being shunned by obese customers who are too ashamed to use them.

"It may be that they don't want to think of themselves as fat or they resent being put in with pensioners and the disabled," said one manager.

The picture is priceless.

That picture is rather awesome...they really need to put a giant sign behind it that says "SIT HERE, FATTY FAT FAT"

Why not just make all the chairs wide? Because then you can't point and laugh...

But they're not talking about weight here.  They're talking  solely about waist circumference.  Therefore, height is irrelevant.  It's all about where the fat accumulates.

Height is relevant. A 5' woman and a 6' woman are going to have different waist sizes, but neither of them may be fat.

What do you mean?  You can have two women; one who's five feet tall, and another who's six feet tall.  They can still both have a 40 inch waist size.

one of them is gonna get all the boys then

That's what happens when you give people fast food. You don't see any fat Nigerians, do you? Or Kenyans? They're our hunting giraffes. Not buying fucking baconators with onions and mustard. A little mustard. And large fries. And...

BRB.

40" isn't relevant here, they are calling a woman with a 35" waist "apple shaped" which is ridiculous. Apple shaped women have a larger waist than hips and bust.

I have a 30" waist, and at 5'8" and 140lbs, I don't consider myself fat. If a 5' woman had my waist and overall weight, she'd be considered obese.

Basically, all women who are above 110lbs. should be shot and killed. Doesn't matter what their height is. Because... FAT WOMEN ARE ALL WORTHLESS AND SHOULD DIE! ALL THEY ARE GOOD FOR IS ZOOMIE'S COCK! And all skinny women are pretty much worthless too, except more men want to fuck them.

Oh look what I found!

So all you need to do to not be a fat worthless woman is be a vegetarian! Cuz, you know, chips and cheese pizza and french fries and bean burritos won't make you fat.

Can't have that ~ you need the fat women to do the "womanly work," freeing up the slender women for the fucking.

Wasn't that the entire basis of the Mormon religion???

Is it too late in our hate-hate relationship for me to tell you how much I really, really love you?

But you're not getting my butthole.

So what is your point?

From the article:

A study suggests apple-shaped women with a waist bigger than 88cm (35in) have a higher risk of developing asthma - even if their body weight is normal.

So what is being argued here?

Just agree.

* nods

99% of these studies are retarded IMO. Like, why don't they link all the other shit in? Such as did they take into consideration if asthma is hereditary in each persons family? Does the person live in a highly-poluted area? Does the person have allergies? etc. They make it sound like if your waist is 35", you better loose a few inches so you don't get TEH ASSTHMAZ OMG.

My BMI is 20.8.  I used to work with this woman who was 35 and hooked up to an oxygen tank that she carried around because her asthma was so bad.  She was also obese, didn't exercise, smoked, and ate horribly (chicken pot pie and corn dogs for breakfast).  She was apple shaped I guess you would say.  I think that discrediting waist size and saying heredity is the only factor is just foolish.  It makes sense that a fat person would have asthma.

I had asthma when I was a thin, athletic 14 year old. Luckily for me it went away. And the reason I had it was purely for the reasons I listed above.

The entire BMI concept has been around for 150 years and it's bullshit. It was invented by a Belgian for pissakes! A BELGIAN!!! WTF do they know about weight control with their sweets and their waffles...

So what is being argued here?

That I think it's a stupid, meaningless article and calling women fat who are not fat is a douche thing to do.

Why not write an article about how men with penises under 6 inches are at rick for developing assholitis, and that they have small dicks.

OMG, I fucking love you. You're the best thing to come out of this whole HF invasion!

Another thing that is retarded about the asthma study is, WHY IS IT DIRECTED ONLY AT WOMEN? If anyone has a logical answer for that one, I'd love to hear it.

Oh, I forgot. This is the reason.

FAT WOMEN ARE ALL WORTHLESS AND SHOULD DIE!

But you said my cock could have them! Unfair!

OMG, I fucking love you. You're the best thing to come out of this whole HF invasion!

haha *high five*

I think it is because men just don't want to point out any more inadequacies about themselves.  I asked this guy, who keeps pestering me, how big his dick was and he wouldn't answer the question.  I finally just ended the conversation by saying, "that small, huh?"

that's because normal blokes don't talk about that stuff. I've never had a conversation about dick-size with anyone not names Ricardo.


PS: ricardo was packin'

If a girl that you're trying to bang asks your dick size, tell her your dick size.
