fat v thin

[darrellshep]

Calling everybody, I am compiling a list of situations on where it would be more or less advantageous to be fat or thin. For example if you found your self in a situation where you was being chased by lions it would be better to be thin as you can run faster and there is less to eat. However if you were to fall in a freezing river or lake then obviously fat wins the day as you have an insulating layer of fat and will not get cold as quick. Please let me know of situations you can think of and explain why it is advantageous or not to be fat or thin.

thin - men love you for everthing

fat - men say you have a nice personality!

The tv show ' Brainiac ' with Richard Hammond did a series of tests like this. There's probably some clips of it on You Tube.

fat doesnt necessary mean you are more unfit than a skinny person. There are alot of people larger than me that are so much fitter. dont agree with sally there can be nice thin people and nasty thin people, there can be lovely fat people and horrible fat people.

And if you look up the 'you Tube' clips I suggested you will get a whole series of situations.

If you were thin and got stuck in a toilet cubicle, you would be more likely to be able to squeeze under the door or over the top than a fat person.

If you were fat and fell down a manhole, you would possibly get wedged in and not fall to your death like a thin person might.

if you were thin and your plane crashed on an island, fellow passengers wouldn't eat you.

if you were fat, you could lean against a door to stop someone getting in.

if you were thin, you could escape out of a (poorly built) cage.

if you were fat, you could blug the hole that the iceberg made on the titanic and save 1000's lives.

sorry i'm getting a bit carried away there...

if you get a ten to two bird its better to be fat because you wont have to wear that plank across your back as she will probably be a heffer too.

its better to be thin if you get stuck on the tube in rush hour as you can worm your way throught the crowd to get away from the fat bloke who stinks of bo whilst holding onto the overhead hand rails

when seeing a band and being in a mosh pit thin people have more energy to jump and can squeeze to the front but fat people dont get pushed out the way and can use their size to push others out of the way!!!
Concerts and gigs should have seperate areas for fat and thin people so thin people dont get crushed and fat people dont have to jump around if they dont want to but stil have a good view
