Most Americans were lean when I was growing up.

I remember that we spent more time outdoors than people seem to, nowadays.

Army recruiters had an easier job.

Diabetes was more rare.

There were rich people and poor people, mean people and kind people...

"Body positivity" was an unknown phrase. Fat shaming was more culturally accepted.

Maybe being a bunch of lazy fatasses will be the thing that saves us.

The horror shows of WWI and WWII would have been a lot more complicated to produce, if only we had all been a bunch of fat fucks.

Ain't nobody got time to dig trenches or try to outrun bullets when they are tubby.
