117% of US adults could be overweight by 2075
If the trends noted by the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment continue, 117% of US adults could be overweight by 2075.
Sounds pretty stupid, right?
No worse than an actual Reuters article: All U.S. adults could be overweight in 40 years.*
Arrrrghhhhhhh.
* In any case, Sworn Enemy is the counter-example to indicate why this is not possible
on the bright side, at least it’s not 150% of adults…that would just be ludicrous…
Reply to chessloseroh hey, notice how us here in colorado lead the us with lowest rates of obesity? that’s cause we are all out riding out mountain bikes or snowboarding….
Reply to chessloserIt was 91 degrees here yesterday and it’s going to be 93 degrees today. If this trend continues, according to my calculations on August 7, 2018 it will be approximately 7,400 degrees…
hehehehe. Thanks for pointing this one out, the amount of total BS that’s published every day is sufficient to keep us all entertained, forever.

Reply to Anonymous@chessloser: Meanwhile, in Texas, we more or less sit on our tushies and watch reality TV.
@Wahrheit: Well. You might want to consider moving before then.

Yes, this is why LEP is redundant.
@Chessaholic: What about Atkins? Not like that’s passe or anything.
@Blunderprone: How about those fat-free, sugar-free donuts? Bet they’re worth eating.
@Anonymous: Depends on whether any of the supply comes from third-world countries.
Reply to Donniejunk science is fun. my mom called me in a panic the other day because she read that tofu reduces sperm count. she ordered me to move carlos far, far away from it.
first of all, if sperm count were the only reason why we didn’t have kids, we’d have kids already.
second, china is, if i’m not mistaken, the most populous country in the world (or is it india)? either way china has a lot of people. i doubt tofu’s effects on sperm are that deleterious.
and finally, we had a lemon/potato curry served over a nice pile of tofu cubes for dinner last night. partly in defiance, and partly because we forgot to make rice.
Reply to annieDonnie,
Wow, I never considered that Soylent Green may be an imported product…
Reply to Allen@Annie: Your mom’s right. That’s why in mainland China, they make fake tofu out of meat, to avoid that problem. For some reason, they sell real tofu in the States.
@Allen: Have you had the McChicken sandwich? I’m not so sure they’re not doing it now.
Reply to DonnieDonnie,
it’s like a fatty chicken nugget in sandwich form!
Anyhow, speaking of poor quality food, where do i ship the gift card?
