Yarrrrrrr! He be a bottomless pit!

just saying... for that height, he ain't the morbidly obese guy you are painting.

 

He might not be so fat, but that doesn't mean he's not a bottomless pit.

 

Oh, is that the point you have ben articulating?

 

I'm not going to argue with you on this. I thought the picture I posted of Homer was funny, and that's why I threw it up here. There was nothing more behind it.

 

Don't worry about it, Mike. Simon's off his meds again and looking for a fight. Has been for the last two days.

 

Where the hell is BYH when you need him?

 

6-3 265 is nowhere close to Homer Simpson.

Usually, you need a thread of reality to have something be funny.

Just a thread.

 

Homer Simpson is 6-foot, 239 pounds. He's not that far off, is he?

 

Really? No, no. You're right. 6-foot, and between 239 and 300 pounds isn't even close.

Are we really going to argue about how much a cartoon character weighs? Really?

And different people carry 275 pounds differently. On Jamarcus Russell, it's probably pretty well distributed. On Chris Farley, not so much.

My guess is that the disabled offshore worker lies somewhere in between (though if he's like most offshore workers I've known, he was probably a badass in his day) ...
