#1 And of course the white man's food was designed to be shoveled into your fat mouth as quick as possible is racist too, along with all those racist farmers to grow it.

If you fat fucks stop eating we could comfortably feed 5-6 3rd world nations.

#2 I’m sure diabetes is white supremacy as well.

#5 So what? The mythical Standard Patient™, when we humans are each unique, has been with us for as long as medicine.

#6 If your uniqueness makes you consider a McDonalds Dinner Box to be your most suitable serving size, your extreme healthiness might require you to shop for a bathtub at a livestock feed store.

#8 She's said to be interested in an EV. The last one she ate tasted pretty good.

#9 For my last colon excursion, I voided 7 lbs.
A good sweaty day on the ranch and I can lose 3-5 lbs.
I looked at the original Harvard tables and the quoted qualifier was 'within 10 lbs.'
I asked a weighing associate what the clothing allowance was, she replied "there is none".

So I claim the weigh number is overstated by 25-30 lbs and should reflect 'metabolic weight', not what you carry.

#10 Any scale placed in a doctor's office will record +15 pounds whatever your scale at home shows.

It's a physical constant of the universe.

#11 Did the AMA move to disestablish itself as a product of "oppressive colonial" Western Civilization?

#12 I had a large lady that worked for me at General Motors whose coworkers informed me that she had broken two commodes. I informed my boss about this when we and our wives were talking at a departmental dinner party. He asked me if it was the weight or the velocity. My wife laughed as his wife hit him.

#14 The White Man also invented gravity which is why fat people weigh so much.

#15 Two questions about the high BMI / toilet scenario: How do the really huge ones even fit on the seat? How do they know if the correct part is even over the bowl?

#16 I guess it's a gradual thing. One doesn't go from L to XXL quickly.

Also had a fat broad at work. She was as mean and nasty and dumb as she was corpulent, but when she wasn't telling lies about people, she was too honest and once complained about frequent calls to her landlord to fix a broken toilet seats, as if the reason had been a total mystery.
