OPINION

04/11/2002

My friend Al reccommended that I keep up these opinions but change the topic off of the Middle East. Hell, there's plenty of other things to talk about besides terrorism. How about something positive for a change. Well, that will be hard since I've been so pessimistic since Sep 11. I'll at least change the subject. hmmmm how about the weight difference between Americans and Europeans. Random...but isn't everything?

Last week I got back from London with my parents. One of the clearest memories I have of the people is that they are in such good shape. When you look around here, so many people are fatasses. They don't give a shit about their appearence yet spend hours watching tv shows and reading magazines that center on appearance. What's the fucking point. If you want to look good and don't have some disease that makes you fat, get off your ass and exercise. If you exercise often you can damn well eat whatever you want. And exercise most of the time makes your body crave healthier foods rather than McDonalds garbage.

So why the hell are Europeans in such good shape, at least the thousands of people in London? Well, one thing I noticed was that the portions are smaller. The one night after Shawn and I left the pubs we were looking for some grub and found the only place open at 3AM..McDonalds. It was packed and everyone had bought meals. The thing that surprised me is that they had the similar supersize deal as in America yet I didn't see ANYONE with a supersize drink and fries....PLUS their drink sizes are smaller than ours. They just eat less shit than us. That's probably it. Some other people that I've talked to London about said the same thing that Europeans are in better shape than Americans. That was the most apparent thing they noticed too....ok thats food for thought....bedtime...nite
