    Are we seriously contriving an awkwardly constructed conversation just so we can call our hypothetical wife fat?

    This would be a disappointing attempt at humor if it were posted on facebook, surely we can do better

      It’s objectively unhealthy. Stop trying to convince others your laziness isn’t something to look down on and ride a bike

        While exercise is definitely a good thing, diet is the main factor for keeping a healthy weight. Kurzgesagt on youtube did a good video about it recently.

        So there’s a lot of stupid fucks on this community, huh.

        Educate yourself and go to school before saying crap.

        There are many lean people that eat absolute crap, and are as unhealthy or more. I don’t think we make fun of bad eating habits; we make fun of fat people because they don’t fit into certain beauty standards.

        Also, being “fat” doesn’t mean you’re not healthy. Being a bit chubby or overweight is perfectly normal, obesity is a problem.

        And I think calling people “lazy” for being fat says more about you than anything. Exercise isn’t the most important factor on weight, eating habits are. Specifically, calorie intake.

          Yes the fuck there is an I’m tired of this propaganda. It destroys one’s health. And this is coming from a fat fuck who’s trying to lose some damn weight

            There’s nothing morally wrong with it. There’s no reason to judge someone for it. Being fat yourself doesn’t excuse being an asshole to others for something that literally doesn’t affect you at all

    Peg: “Al, does this dress make me look fat?”

    Al: “No Peg, it’s the fat that makes you look fat.”
