I had In The House - In A Heartbeat playing in my head while making this meme

Fat people in most countries: "I need to make sure I don't get so bad that I can't fit through this one-meter-wide door in a public building."

Fat people in America: "I'M SUING THE CITY UNTIL THEY MAKE A LAW THAT REQUIRES ALL DOORS TO BE TWO-METERS WIDE!!"

Edit: The meme insinuates that good healthcare would have prevented the disability, so the first disability that came to mind was obesity. My comment doesn't apply to everyone, obviously.

Oh, sorry, my bad. I wasn't aware disabilities were easily curable with exercise.

Easily? Depends. But, yes, exercise does prevent and help heal quite a few disabilities.

Most disabilities aren't like that though. In fact I actually think mental disorders are the most common these days. Though Arthritis (caused by age and genetics) is also very common.

Could I get an example of a disability healed by exercise? (Being fat isn’t a disability by itself)

I believe you mean 72" wide. Like a fat American would know what the fuck a meter is. lol

Americans know what a meter is you twat nugget

[–] rimmedalpha 2 points 9 months ago

Americans might, but fat Cornfed Americans wouldn't dare be that unpatriotic.

In what area of the USA do you live where the average american knows what a meter is. You’ll get some nonsense like “about 3 feet”, maybe.

Where in the USA do you live where people don’t know what a meter is? If someone says “about three feet” then who the fuck cares? Is this person an engineer or being required to use an exact measurement to do a task? Otherwise it’s just trivia knowledge.
