As do I. It's been statistically proven, in fact. Did you know Starbucks just announced they're serving a coffee larger than the size of the human stomach? They are. Why the hell, you might ask, would we want this? Well, we Americans have made our stomachs larger by gorging. :rolleyes: True story.
Where I live, it's a resort town. Hate to mock, but that's my town. So you get fit and healthy (and often wealthy) families from Florida and California who come here to either buy vacation homes or move here. It's pretty nice - my high school has a very high percentage of rather attractive girls. So I don't really see the weight as much around here, but go to New Jersey, and you see it. Even my uncle (not genetically, thankfully) had so much weight he lost 60 pounds just by not going to McDonald's - for breakfast. :eek:
As far as cars are concerned, most people drive like fat people, prodding the pedals with their hooves. One of the reasons I love my parents' decade-old Civic (aside from it being a manual with VTEC) is its lighter weight and tossability. Such a relief to not have a giant SUV or the Porsche Cayennes/Ford Expeditions/Cadillac Escalades everyone drives around here.
Leadfoot's rant of the day now over. :cheeky:
