Some of them literally try to re-write the reality of the situation. Being fat is not a good thing. Being fat is a health problem that should be fixed. There's no such thing as being healthy and being fat. Every professional will tell you this, and they aren't out on a "crusade" to "oppress" your "people". I've both lost and gained large amounts of weight a few times, and I can tell you with personal certainty as well that there is nothing good about the fat side of that equation.

Overweight people float easier, from what I remember. That's a plus, right?

Heh. I also live on fast food but I am "very severely underweight" (although that's BMI which most people don't seem to like much).
The trick is never to have breakfast or lunch >.>
^{I blame laziness}

[Loud Whispers]

I wish I could gain weight.

Like, how do people even get hungry multiple times a day >.>

Some people have a knack for regulang what they eat. For example, if they know they won't be doing much, they'll automatically eat less and vice versa.

Speaking of Tumblr, can fat people be fatphobic?

Nah, skinny people eat just as much. I have a friend who's about 2/3rds my size (110 pounds; I weigh a bit less than 180. yay for being in shape!) eats just as much food as I do. And I eat, tonnnnnnnssssssss. You don't even have to eat that much more than other people to become fat imho.

For all the FJWs: Eric Cartman is fat too.

Gut fauna's a big thing.

Seemingly having roughly about kinda the same diet as a friend doesn't really say much either unless you actually note it all down.

Metabolism.

Right. It's why generally the fat people you know have always been fat. Keyword: GENERALLY for nitpickers.

Not really.

This does not help me. I have a beer gut, but I still sink like a stone filled with lead.

Stop eating bullets, Max. It's not good for your health.

I do weigh a lot, but I haven't eaten any bullets. Mostly pizzas.

I can't make my IRC bouncer work again >:I

Toppings count as things you have eaten!

That reminds me of one of my favorite movies 'Man Bites Dog'

You may not be aware that a corpse under water swells up with air, see?
So it tends to float to the surface. You have to load it with ballast so it sinks.
You weight it down with stones and other heavy stuff. There's a ballast ratio for corpses...
Three times body weight for an average adult like this victim.
But for children and midgets it's different. Kids are lighter. So it's four times body weight.
Midgets are heavier, so you double the weight. Midgets have denser bones so you double the weight.
For old people, multiply by five. Old bones are porous.

[Pnx]

So you need to put several hundred pounds of weights on a typical body to make sure it stays down?

That seems excessive, I could see one or two hundred pounds of weight, but I find it hard to believe a human body is capable of producing that much buoyancy. I mean you're basically telling me that a dead body is capable of floating more weight than an inflatable raft.
