I know everyone likes to be mean, but let's be creative here: It's not just the stereotypical fat American. Look at our athletes and body builders, a lot of people who could possibly be in these terms are healthy by all metrics; some Americans are just taller and more muscular.

I'm not downplaying the obesity epidemic, but I feel like a more generic term is appropriate here.

God that whole interview was pathetic. It was obvious Alex was trying to do the dad talk with someone who just did not buy in.

I feel this, that menu was a favorite with times it rolled around.

Yeah, none of this is based in reality dude. Look at our movie stars, any magazine, and people on TV. This shit isn't normalized.

Yeah, I'm sitting here wondering how these people do things and enjoy life. Like, if people understood from a microbiology level how filthy literally everything is, they'd realize frankly none of it matters.

I disagree, I feel like this is an attempt to inject emotion and empathy into a topic that usually garners hostility. Think of the people usually reading The Wallstreet Journal: it's not anyone young you imagine, perhaps someone with terms like "commies" still in lingo from the 70s and 80s?

I read this as an attempt to humanize a group that their target audience would usually alienate. The photos help with generating those emotions.

So, the issue we see is that the republican party has often run democrats, and then had them flip to republican after election.

I don't trust most democrats either at this point.

Has no one in this thread never considered the root cause with these:

Anxiety. Americans are an anxious society. And that is with good cause, no social safety net, work 2 jobs to get ahead and a mass shooting every goddamn day.

Damn, am I the only Wenslwydale girl?

 

Currently, I use the old Tomoe, but someday that will run out, and it's hard to know what shows off ink the best.
