This thread needs more biscuits
tax clothes by weight
Surely by size, as a slim person might need a heavier jacket to stay warm in the winter. Not great for tall people though.
INRAT
But I was parked outside a local McDonalds earlier* and noted that 9 out of every 10 people entering/exiting the place were big fat chuffers.
Shops/restaurants should be banned from selling junk to fat people
(*I'd succumbed to their marketing and wanted to try the sweet chilli chicken wrap. It was actually not bad)
I of course am too fat and lazy to walk in so used the drive through
This would be great. Us skinny people could earn a fortune buying illicit burgers for fat people.

I never thought of that. Which is surprising, as I already make a killing in buying fags and booze for kids.
I've made quite a few killings which started by buying a milkshake for a kid.
oh mcD's I went in with my kids for a Mc poo.
On exiting my eldest [5 at the time] said in a loud voice
"Daddy why is everyone so fat?"
I tried to escape without answering to which he chipped in with
"Is it because they eat too much and dont exercise"
I can just gangs of skinny dudes on street corners as fat folk walk up for pies.

Erm....I think it's something to do with McDonalds. Apart from that, I got nothing.
Stream of consciousness from JY.
*is impressed with veggie JY taking his kids to McD's* 🙂
Solution:
- weigh and measure people at work/signing on, each month
- impose financial penalties each month for those exceeding recommended weight/% body fat
- subtract financial penalties direct from income
- ring fence extra income gathered for use in treating weight related illness/injury
Easy 🙂
obesity costs money to the taxpayer
100 quid a week in pension for an old person whos healthy is eclipsed by paying for all the diabetes, asthma, heart disease (statins are very common these days) cancer (obesity is a very big factor)
all these treatments cost silly amounts of money
personally i am in favour of
pedestrianising all towns
investing in PE at school- give people a love of regular exercise as a kid and theyll get used to it
ban fatty food advertising, no more 'im lovin it'
advertising in sports in general are a joke look at the 2 sponsors of the olympics MaccyDs and Coke, lasting legacy? they are gonna build the worlds biggest MaccyDs outside the olympic stadium in stratford!!!!
ban drinks advertising in football, how many beer gutted porkers watch football players plastered in carslberg logos do sport from the comfort of their local while they get plastered on carlsberg?
bring back the traffic light labeling system, which the government ditched on the advise/lobbying of the food and drink industry and getting rid of the food standard agency, FFS this one really got my goat- it costs the country in the long run but keeps tory lovin businessmen happy
Pretty lucid for me tbh 😐
This post
But I was parked outside a local McDonalds earlier*
made me think of the only time I went into said place with my children [ we are vegans DD so cant eat there] and his comments are relevant to an obesity thread
To be fair I should have said exiting the toilets and walking throught the restaurant - WTF is it called that?
so even a 5 year old can get it that if you eat too much and dont excercise you get fat.
Obviously DD does not know what it is like to be embarrassed by children 😉
HTH
has this worked or am I just digging ?
digging Junky... 😆
Damn ......is still confused is that good or bad digging.
Pesky Internet mocking me 😳
Oh and very clever reply 😀

Not having a go, I genuinely struggled with this one....and usually I can extract the meaning from most of your sprawling verbosity.
not offended I do need to put in more effort to punctuate and construct full sentences. It is lazyiness [tiredness at the minute but not usually] and a bit of gentle good spirited mocking helps me to not get to ridiculous levels [ well hopefully].
Sorry
Sorry
Accepted. 🙂

Oi! Give that back right ****ing now! 😡
Junkyard - Membernot offended I do need to put in more effort to punctuate and construct full sentences. Being a vegan makes me tired and weak, i need a big fat steak. A bit of gentle good spirited mocking helps me to not get to ridiculous levels [ well hopefully].

make escalators, elevators and moving walkways really really slow. maybe. what was the question?
Orwell knew the dangers of mass produced, feel-good, convenience food. Road to Wigan Pier I think it was in.
I'd quote him but I can't be arsed going to find it . Not because I'm sat in a pile of crisps but because I was out riding all day yesterday and what a day it was.
As an ex heavy treading ginormomunter I can honestly say mine snuck up when I wasn't looking, working too long/late eating rubbish at odd times and drinking like a fish all added up to make me a seriously large chap. Got myself sorted and am now a svelte little thing, but the body dismorphia I ended upwith has stayed and I have to work hard not to end up making myself throw up after eatin to ensure it doesn't come back. To stop the obese epidemic we just need to dress all lardy folk in seal outfits and release some hungry polar bears onto the streets, too fat to run too stupid to hide? Then get out of the gene pool
Here I was thinking that I might have got some sensible replies to my question...
You can all have a hug, I'm going to keep shoving bread in my mouth whilst drinking beer and waiting for my bolognese to cook.
Tazzy... are you riding at Cannock this weekend??
Just got home from a week in Salcombe. Main impression was that there are almost no fat people there! Everyone was playing in boats. Lots of well off thin folks.
If we had been in Blackpool I'm sure that the main impression would have been lots of fat people, eating chips and not moving much.
I hadn't realised that there were still seaside resorts in the UK that were not inhabited by slobs. Very refreshing!
TSY- Out early tomorrow morning for a blast on the super secret stuff if you're passing, or may be taking a few chaps for a spin on sunday as well
you're more than welcome to join us
email me if you want to play
I'm riding at Cannock on Sunday morning TSY?
Magnifique! I'm very interested in a Sunday ride at Cannock!
Cool etc.
Dave, Matt.
Is Cannock local for you guys ?.
It is for me, about 15 mins drive.
Flippin-eck !!!.
I'm working at Warwick Uni !.
We should arrange something, I could sling a bike in the back of the motor and drive to CC after [i]work[/i].
WHAT SAY YOU ?.
Absolutely. I may need to borrow a light though!!
OOoooooo.
Well, lets see now....
Yeah, not a problem....
Think I may have one for you.
😉
Of course, TSY won't need a light.
Allegedly he consumes sooo many carbs, he literally glows in the dark.
Sort of luminous-like, if you will.
😉
Come out all you right wing fatty haters!Fat people are just swell
No. They just create a lot of swell.
[i]No. They just create a lot of swell.[/i]
Not quite. They're people who are just a bit swollen.
Actually they don't eat anything at all, its something to do with their glands......

C_G ponders whether to post up her two'pennyworth and annoy the ill-informed. 👿
The incidence in obesity has roughly followed the increase in drinking. 600 cals in a bottle of wine, 230 in an alcopop, 1150 in a bottle of Buckfast!
[i]annoy the ill-informed[/i]
😆
Glad you liked that Solo. 😉
