You're wrong more than you think :lupe:

Do you support the Tea Party? Do you find it frustrating when opponents dismiss the movement as a bunch of racists?

Again, you still aren't seeing it from the other person's perspective. You honestly think that all obese people ate themselves into obesity in a careless way?

No.

And I never mentioned obesity in my first post. (hence why I pulled a weight out of thin air)

There are biological factors present in some (not all) of the people.

Well documented and understood.

I don't judge or look down on obese people because their may be underlying issue with them or their biological makeup (hormones, brain, heredity, etc.)

Let me restate my original opinion seeing as I was out and using my cell.

I don't care if a person is 250. I need to know why, as that person started their march to 250, steps were not put in place to prevent this from happening. Many people have legitimate health reasons for this. Well documented. Fully understood. But as a whole, we (EVERYONE) have this outlook on health, where the proper lifestyle changes aren't accepted and practiced until an individual reaches a breaking point. And by then, the ability to reverse the effects becomes tremendously more difficult. Why? Because it's no longer about counting calories, and physical output. Then it becomes an emotional battle. Then it turns into a person having to restructure the lifestyle they lived for x amount of years.

Unless you have great metabolism, its perfectly understandable to battle your weight. I don't understand why ppl that work out & ppl that don't work out, continue to push this belief that consistently staying at a certain weight is 100% possible. But unfortunately, health education, is made the joke of local tv news ("This just in, drinking 1 glass of wine will help you blah blah blah). Folks need to seek help & those around them need to provide help much earlier in the process.

Edit: and notice, that not once, did I ever use the word "lazy"

I hate that fat ppl argument. It makes 0 sense to me. The main reason is the math behind getting fat.

At some point, in order to get to (lets take a number out the air) 250 pounds, you had to pass 170, 180, 190, 200, 210, 220, 230, 240…..

you see, there are intervals to the fatness….nobody wakes up and is automatically fat. Being fat or in shape is a representation of time. It's not simply a physical state. Once folks realize that and start looking at it from a mathematics perspective, then we won't have these go nowhere ass conversations.

I don't care about how you got so fat that you weight 250 pounds. I wanna know why when you weighted 170, you CONTINUED to do the shyt that got you to 170. And why when you got to 180 you CONTINUED to do the shyt that got you to 170. And on and on and on…..

fukk.

I've always wondered how people in general got fat. Is it like a slow transition gradually overtime or more like they became really fat within a month or two...

I've seen a lot of my peers turn within a few years...

Pop psychology is cute.

Unfortunately, they completely dropped the ball on #4. The Fundamental Attribution Error is when you overestimate internal characteristics --- but with fat people you are not overestimating. It is a fact that fat people have lack of self-control.

You see, there is a personality trait called Conscientiousness. People who are Conscientiousness are responsible, dependable, careful, have self-discipline.

Study after study shows fat people lack this personality trait. Here is one example (quick google search): http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3462003/

So you see, the Fundamental Attribution Error is not being committed. Fat people are more likely to have shytty personality characteristics, and that's a scientific fact.

Reuters / China Daily

Most insects just shut down or die when it gets cold, because the ability to thermoregulate is typically a mammalian trait. But bees have worked out an ingenious heating system for themselves, as well as the whole hive. These industrious bugs can crank up the thermostat by as much as 35 degrees Celsius. In times of cold, bees can disengage their wings and turn on just their wing muscles to warm up. They have a neutral gear that lets them rev up the engine for heat -- it's like running in place without moving your legs. The ability to control their temperature means that bees can forage when it's still too cold for competitors and predators, and it also allows them to heat their hives in the winter to keep them cozy even in freezing temperatures, effectively acting like live mini heaters. And if it gets too hot during the summer, a few of the workers will line up and flap their wings to fan everyone, becoming living ceiling fans.


But that's not the only thing our feisty flower fondlers do with their command over ambient temperatures. When bees face an overwhelming threat, like the dreaded Asian giant hornet, their normal defenses are useless. Their small stingers are not strong enough to pierce the hornet's exoskeleton. So instead, the bees will Zerg rush the offending hornet with a technique called balling. By encapsulating the invader in a living sphere of sweaty, writhing bodies, the bees can smother it by cranking up the heat and the carbon dioxide. With 500 gyrating bees all clumped together, they'll raise the temperature to 117 degrees Fahrenheit, literally cooking the wasp. Alone, an individual bee is almost helpless, but when they combine in Voltron-like fashion, they become a living microwave oven. Balling ... it's not just for hustlers and porn stars anymore.

Read this and you will have a new found respect for bees and how fukking intelligent they are...the whole article is craaaazzzyyyy

killa bees
