#1 The "morbidly obese" is a dead giveaway to the Bee.

#2 Being "morbidly obese" is a serious commitment and a full time job. A normal human being would be stressed by eating 12-15,000 calories a day.

#3 Ref #2: ...stressed by eating 12-15,000 calories a day.

We must continue to consume. If we don't use these gummit coupons Walmart will surely die. They cannot meet dividend growth targets selling Chinese junk alone.

#5 O blithe Bee-spirit, if satire is easy to spot again, can Spring be far behind?

= maybe things are just starting to return to something resembling... normal?

#6 Been meaning to try the "I ate nothing but Bugles™ for a month" diet.

#7 Yum, Bugles with Top the Tater onion dip.

Troubling thought of the day. When someone is so fat they can't reach their arsehole to wipe...

#8 I just always wonder how a really fat person knows when the "business end" is actually over the bowl.

#9 ...well from the land of Sumo wrestlers comes your answer. I'm sure they'll get it classified as a ADA federally funded item soon.

#10 I can just imagine my toilet saying "you are cleared for final approach."

#14 The sad thing is being obese means you are more likely to die if you catch Covid, and now would be a really good time to encourage weight loss (instead of the gain most people will take on because of the isolation) but nobody has the courage to say so.

#15 Agreed. Let's close every park and beach and trail where people might get some exercise. Yep: That's the ticket.

#16 Obesity is a life choice. It's not "hormones" or "living in a food desert." Some people want to sit on their asses and cram stuff in their mouths. An Andy Warhol style fast forward movie of the life of an average morbidly obese person would be hard to watch.

#17 I think, truth.
