why are americans?

Question

so goddam fat ?

Answer 1

It's the most fun way to commit suicide. Wouldn't you if you lived under George Bush?

Help!!! My tears are rusting my joints!!!

Answer 2

Ok, so it's an ignorant question. I'm over it.

I personally find myself as an oddity at being average sized. Most people here are really large or are obsessed with NOT being large, so they exercise and diet constantly.

Fast food is cheap; gyms are expensive. The only jobs available in my area ARE fast food joints--it's pretty much its own American subculture. Many Americans are also depressed. Either they don't know why, have personal reasons, or they watch the news and see how our country is being torn apart by the most ridiculous leader ever not elected.

I find it interesting that someone said we're fat to make up for the lack of history. That's a huge debate here, and I wouldn't be surprised if it does contribute to overeating--for example, there is a huge gap in patriotism when it simply involves killing Arabs--a lot of people where I live are fans of that brand, and it's twice as ignorant as your question. On the other hand, if you identify yourself as an Irish-American by heritage, for example, the same folks will tell you 'no, you're just American, and if you feel that way, go back to Ireland, because all of the Mexicans need to go back to Mexico etc. etc. etc.'

People here also want and will pay for simple solutions. Diet pills instead of exercise, for example.

Answer 3

If all Americans are fat, then all Brits have gross teeth and all French are rude. The Spanish are oversexed and all Africans are starving and running around with sticks in their noses.

Hmmm... Are there any more ignorant generalizations that we could make?

Are you all that petty as to place stereotypes on an entire nation?

Grow up. Say what you really think and stop being a bully and calling names.

Answer 4

I thought I am the only soul asking that kind of question since my last year's visit to Disney land. Man, I thought these massive men, women and children are part of the disney show, then I came out to get into my car and saw them coming out too getting flat down at the back of a van (one van for each of them monsters or so I thought but no man they were ordinary AMERICANS).
I also saw them rolling down the road instead of walking. Many they eat like a pig too and fart oh my god their fart is nothing short of a what we call here a thunder storm.
My kids were so scared of these huge people's city that we had to cut our trip short and get back home to normal people. No wonder they want to own the whole world, because man they need space those hugies.

Answer 5

Junk food, supersize portions and an inability to walk anywhere!
But then look at the worlds glamouous film stars.... skinny americans! Maybe its a cosmic balance for each of those stars some poor mortal(s) have to pay the price and be overweight, to balance out the universe!

Answer 6

A/C, man. Its because we eat a lot, then watch TV in the air conditioning. We never feel heat, so our metabolism is slowed and our bodies store up fat to word off the cold of the A/C

You will note however, that no-one before me on this thread posted an actual picture of him or herself, including you.
Fatasses.

The dichhead '"grlinner" doesn't even live in the US but he has to put his two pence in. Screw you, "grinner".

Answer 7

I wouldn't aggravate 'bluffy' over there, looks like a veteran or something, handy with a blade and a size 67 waist.

I bet he would like to screw grinner.........who doesn't?



When I went to Ascension Island (check your Atlas, it's in there....somewhere) all the food is from america, all the cereals are sugar coated, all the puddings are sugar loaded and everything else is either dripping with fat or bigger than the plate you put it on. I'm surprised they still have teeth.

Answer 8

My God! 'Bluffy The American' is soooooo stupid he can't spell dickhe*d or Grinner. Too stupid to realise that super-sized portions of hormone injected animal hoofs (McD's), deep fried, saturated fat loaded, refined carbs and sugared loaded fizzy water (pop/soda) everyday will make you fat as well, I'm guessing. Numb-nuts!

* Roland - what's with giving the same answer over and over to every question?

Answer 9

I have to say that you all have no idea what youre talking about. Our whole country is not fat. There are physically fit people everywhere in this world and there are fat people everywhere in the world too. Stop being in denial. You sound as ignorant as your anwers!!! Go have a burger or something and stop whining!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
