I hate it when the fat people use the little motorized carts at the grocery store.

yeah- and the handicapped spots.

I'm not "discriminating" against fat people, but it does make me sick to see how some people let themselves become so overweight.
If they wanna die from a heart attack as a result of high blood pressure- thats fine. I'm not saying we should implement a fat people plan where everyone who is overweight is mandated by a federal court to attend an aerobics class once a week.

I'm just saying they make excuses and cry about how fat they are- but continue to live a lifestyle that results in obesity.

I'm not trying to flame you or piss you off in anyway. I just want to know if you have had first hand knowledge or someone close that have/had such experience?

I've been made fun of most of my childhood and my young adult life.

I am handicapped, not seriously but enough that I can't stand for a long time or walk long distances. I look really retarded (literally) when I run.

fawk you hoe taco bell kicks ass. And too bad if i dont workout, i'll just be fat


but seriously, we are a fat nation, most of us lazy too. People need to start to really consider their health before they stuff their faces with high fat foods. Its hard to do, but you cant just go to Mc Donalds all the time, you've gotta home cook some good-for-you foods too. Even though it might not taste as great as the sugary foods, we've gotta tough it out and think about our health in the long run.

this is coming from the guy who has every type of junk food known to man inside his TWO separate pantries. :fawk:

Come on. If Fat Bastard could shed a couple hundred pounds by the Subway diet- I think a couple million americans could sacrafice a biggie meal and eat healthier.

don't mind people asking at all

i had polio when I was 2. as a result my left is is approximately 2 inches shorter then my right and i have virtually no muscle on that leg except for the calf.

I couldn't walk again until I was nearly 5. I can walk now with a slight limp but I've learned to mask it from most people.
