Obesity epidemic

I think I may have uncovered some of the causes of the obesity epidemic in this country. Oviously this will need a lot more research, but I have a sneaking suspicion that the following *may* make you fat:
  • tucking into a bag of chips AND a chocolate bar at 8.34am
  • cracking a packet of tim tams before breakfast
  • buttering your hash browns before placing them in a bacon and egg sandwich. Cos, you know, that dish needs a bit of extra fat to offset all the, er, grease.

Exercise plays a small part too. Why does everyone stand still on escalators- do they think it's a ride? I can understand standing still on the way up, as most people don't like climbing stairs. But going down too? By standing still on a downwards escalator, you're effectively saying "that's right, I'm too lazy to walk downhill, even with a mechanical device propelling me along". That's some kind of lazy.

I smell an awareness campaign coming on.

I saw a couple cracking a pack of tim tams in the middle of the day while standing at the back of their car in a carpark. what the hell. needless to say she was "a huge bitch". dont get me wrong i live with a pack of double coat tim tams in my fridge but there is a time and a place... and an amount...

It's worse when the person with the huge 4 x 4 ass not only won't walk, but sits right in the middle of the escalator so no one can pass.

This woman this morning was just sitting there like an iceberg, slowly bobbing away in front of me. It's, as you say, hell lazy to stand on the escalator but even worse to preclude anyone else from moving.
