I don't believe humans can be objective. Even science is relativistic.


We probably can't ever be 100% objective, but I think science brings us closer to objectivity than probably any other current method or school of thought.

Even mathematical systems aren't objective. A consistent set of axioms can't prove itself.

I for one love fat people. The fatter the people the less competition for the hot women.

If you publicly shame fat people you'll eventually come across the wrong fat fuck

I dropped 40 pounds due to severe depression

you're doing depression all wrong, you're supposed to eat ice cream out of the box when you're depressed

I don't give a shit about fat people, their life is theirs to live. I just don't want to end up paying for their medical bills when they choose to do nothing to work on their health. I used to be fat, its really not that hard to get fit, barring REAL medical problems. Another issue is the U.S. society pushes people to quick easy out of the box meals which are terrible for your body. Take some time to source good ingredients and cook. Back in the day a loaf of bread was golden, and being a baker was super prestigious from what I gather.... Now you can just buy a bag of bread with all sorts of shitty ingredients in it for dirt cheap. My 2 cents

The benefits couple who are too FAT to work: Newlyweds who weigh 54 stone between them claim £2,000 a month – and they say it's the Government's fault

With a combined weight of 54st, they say they are ‘too fat to work’.
But that did not stop Stephen Beer, 45, and wife Michelle, 43, being able to splash out £3,000 on their wedding – as the bill was footed by the taxpayer.


then again i'm generally annoyed by the current state of the welfare system
not a fan of deadbeats as a whole

Social ostracism combined with a family's guidance can make a big difference imo.

If not, harpooning whales is still top kex.

I went to the doctor yesterday and he told me he had good news and bad news. He tells me the good news is that I have AIDS. I say WTF? THAT'S THE GOOD NEWS? He says the bad news is, you're so fucking fat there's no way that it will matter.


At least you won't be able to spread it too far sexually.
