I didn't mind the obese until I had to start flying a lot.

That eating before bed causes you to gain more weight than eating at any other time of the day is a myth.

And maybe if you were high you would actually find Jon Stewart funny. Or maybe not.

If you swallow 15 grams of arginine on an empty stomach just before your head hits the pillow, your sleep will convert fat to lean muscle.

Works for me.

You should take vitamin C if you do this, though.

You should also check with your doctor to see if you have problems with arginine.

He's not a comedian.

He's dead serious.

Unlike Beck.

Funny how people are so sure about what fat people should and should not do because science tells you so. But then why are there so many articles stating so many different things? Isn't Science exact?

Truth. The problem with obese people is that they tend to infringe on other people's personal space and this causes a lot of resentment, especially when you paid a lot of money for your airplane seat only to be crammed in and made uncomfortable for hours because of the Fat Bastard sitting next to you.

Hey Renault,

If an obese person on a plane bothers you, then don't fly. You can drive to where ever you want to go, without worrying about being 'infringed upon' by an obese person.

Seems to me, that you're looking for any petty reason, to put down fat people. Not everybody, would be bothered by flying with fat plane passengers, just because it bothers you. So you can't speak for everyone!

Well when you can't use the arm rest because someone's side is oozing over it, it bothers people. When you smell nothing but sweat from the person sitting next to you(and I'm not talking about some b.o. here, the obese and the people who have to be near them know what I mean), it bothers people. The obese have an affect on everyone, it's about time they start recognizing the impact they have on society.
