This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Because most people are lazy and or stupid and don't want to make the effort to do the things they need to do even more than they don't want to be fat. Every single fat person I know over eats at every meal and is always snacking and even when they do try to diet they give themselves tons of cheat days and fuck themselves over. It's as simple as eating less calories than you need but they can't manage it because they've trained their bodies to expect them to be constantly cramming garbage down their gullet and if they don't they're hungry all the time which is apparently impossible to deal with for them because they have no willpower.
Agreed. It's simple. But simple is not necessarily easy. There's a difference.
Sounds a hell of a lot like an addiction to me.
Your entire response is filled with vitriol. You attribute a serious problem that has become a pandemic to an individual personal fault rather than acknowledge there might be a systemic problem, which leads me to believe that not only do you hate or despise overweight people, but you put them down to make yourself feel superior.
It is almost always an individual fault. Just happens to be a fuckload of individuals who are faulty. Then they go online and make excuses for each other instead of trying to improve themselves. Why shouldn't I despise them? If they lack the willpower to control their eating because it's difficult what other failings are they going to be willing to forgive themselves for?
Yeah, nobody forces them to go to McDonald's every day after work.
