i definately think we should tax people who chase things around with a bottle of BBQ sauce :D
i dont think the 'tax' angle was ever to be taken seriously.
and as tolerant a person i am .. when i see obese people (not overweight) it does sicken me.
Since i was older i know what its like to be overweight .. and i disgust myself when i get to a point where i cant stand it anymore - then i do something about it and lose weight.
by portion control and excersise.
i think most people have a knee jerk reaction to obesity .. it looks horrible and most peoples gut instinct to it is to be disgusted.
Subconciously we know that to achieve that epic mass is to eat like a glutton - a very unappealing trait.
I understand where this may have come from but i get a little tired of excuses ... Like the wife beater who 'doesn't know any differenty' because his dad beat his mom.
Fuck off ... what was the kid doing at the time, having fun ? NO he was probably crying and upset. So things that upset you that much becomes 'all you know?' How about going the other way and thinking .. shit - that hurt me profoundly - maybe i wont do that when i grow up.
I'll look at an obese person and wonder what could the quality of their life be like ? how can they perform simple functions like position their ass over a toilet ?
and yeah .. they are a burdon on the health system ..
I dont think anyone seriously considered a tax ... that was just dark humor ..
These people may not have known any better as children but as they grew up - unless they lived in a complete vacuum - would have exposure to other people and things and come to the realization that they are physically incapable of doing anything other than eating and watching TV. Pretty much the existance of an animal.
I wouldnt say anything to them, or anyone else - but i cant help marvel about such a waste of the only life they'll ever get.
are they happy ... i fucking doubt it.
I have no suggestions .. just explaining my feelings on the thing ..
(and yes - i think you smokers are nuts too)
