    That's not candy. That's chocolate-covered whipped air.

    Citizens of the most obese country in the world need some rationale to justify their slovenly, lazy, unhealthy habits. Well played.

    Don't argue with RickStain and Pharisee on this one.
    They'll get some scientists to whip your tail.

    The evidence clearly states right now that there is at least some genetic component to obesity, but further study is required to figure out how much influence it really has.

    I know that might be a little too high-falutin' and elitist for the "I know what I know" crowd, but intellectual honesty is what it is.

    "I once lost weight, so everyone can."

    "I once quit smoking, so it's not addictive."

    "It's colder today that last year in my town, global climate change is clearly disproven."

    "My church brought in a man who used to by gay but converted after God changed his life, thus proving that homosexuality is not a choice."

    There are some people who are legitimately obese for medical reasons.

    There are others who get that way because of laziness.

    It's says on the package that its lower in calories than the leading chocolate candy bars.

    Which of course, could mean anything. It's 200-something calories vs. 400-something, which is kinda better I guess.

    (Now we're really getting off subject) I read somewhere that a Twix bar has the same amount of carbs as 11 slices of bacon, which of course got me to thinking how good chocolate-covered bacon would be.

    I used to say there's no better joy than a big butt boy.
    I don't say that much any more.

    Its much easier to blame genetics than actually take responsibility for the welfare of your body. Much easier.
