So in short I unconsciously contributed in increasing percentage of fat in the bodies of bay12ers.

I'm sorry

Not gonna affect me. I eat stuff worse than those a lot. I ate a burger with ham as bread the other day.

Because my metabolism is insane and trying to kill me.

Same as Janet; it's not going to effect me. No matter what I eat, it never makes me fatter.

I also learned something finally.

affect is when using as a verb
effect is when using as a noun

I can affect something to cause an effect, yah.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

How insane are we talking here? "I can't gain weight" insane or "100 degree body tempature from huge amounts of wasted cellular energy and weight loss that can be measured in MPH" insane?

"Effect" also means "to bring about."

"Her tender kiss effected a change in the villain."

If the Double Down had big slice of ripe tomato in the middle instead of bacon and fat sauce, I'd devour that.

And to complete the quadrangle of confusion, "affect" can also be a noun, meaning the (usually emotional) feeling resulting from a stimulus.  The only place I've ever heard the term is literary criticism, though (e.g. describing what a poem makes the reader feel).

If this makes you angry at the English language, blame Latin.  That's where those weird redundant verb prefixes come from, and they're hardly less ambiguous there, either.

Steak sandwich and red wine. The juiciest steak, crustiest white bread, crispest lettuce and most flavorsome red wine.
Oh yeaaaaah.

[ToonyMan]

Chicken donut, chicken donnnuuttt.

Actually, "affect" is also used to talk about someone's demeanor.  It's typically used in psychology ("blunted affect," and so on).

"His affect was generous, having been effected by the effect of Effie's effectual affectations and Alvie's eventual affected affection."

For me it's just that my metabolism is really, really fast and it's not going to be like that forever. Yeah, can't wait for that to bite me in the ass.

[Dakk]

My metabolism is like that aswell but I've taken precautions so my body changes the least possible in the years to come. Not like it did change at all ever since I was 17.

I think I got lucky in that aspect aswell. I somehow lost any taste for soda and I'm slowly shifting from omnivorous to partialy vegan, and I made no real effort for that to happen. Today I only drink natural juice apart from water, and while I still eat meat, I eat considerably less then I used to.

I'm about 5.8~5.9 feet tall and I've been weighting 132 lb for 4 years now.

EDIT: Alright, I drink wine aswell, but thats basicaly grape juice with alcohol >:C

[Cthulhu]

I decided, if I were playing Nobilis I would be Power of Lemons.  I could disable people with the sour taste, burn your eyes, and no matter what I could always pull one of those lemon-shaped bottles of concentrated lemon juice out of my pocket.

[Blackdutchie]

Strawberry+Orange juice. FTW.
Kiwi+Apple juice... not so much.

[Maggarg - Eater of chicke]

I love my metabolism. It helps that I frequently go on 30 mile plus cycling trips.
I'm probably about 6'2 - 6'3 and I weigh 12 and a half stone, and have done for a long time. I eat quite a lot, partly because I really love good food and partly because I can't stand seeing plates that aren't empty. They mock me. I also drink quite a bit of beer of the Real Ale variety, although I normally make sure my drinking stays within normal limits (Apart from parties and festivals, obviously.)
