    You'd also have similar food and weight problems if everyone got into powerlifting or bodybuilding, which I'm not saying is gonna happen, but I think dictating the way people live their lives should be the last thing we do to fix the national budget. And again you have to distinguish between obesity and simple overweightness. Obesity is a serious condition, being overweight not so much.
    Not to mention there are things like food allergies and everyone's body being different. Its easy to say "diet and exercise" but that's not helping anyone specifically. For me it means cutting corn and wheat products, which can be a touch tricky when you want to pack quick convenient meals for work or school. I can't even have corn and wheat in moderation. I seem to have a problem with tomatoes, too. Asking me to cut those is taking like 90% of the fun out of most meals. Quick and easy at that point is rice, other veggies, grilled meats and fruit.

    Its OK for a while, but it does get boring. The peanut butter and jelly sandwich or pizza may not be as good, but it tends to be more time-efficient and you may not be fully detoxed by the time you start craving such things.

    Anyway, Feba and a couple others still miss the point that shame is not the healthy way to promote a healthy lifestyle, and with that:

      Of course there would be. BG are basically the bullies of the FFXI community.

          Personally, I'm hoping the Gangnam Style thing hands around long enough to eradicate bronies. Then again, there's a brony version, too. Thankfully the Klingon version was nearly as popular so there's some balance in the universe.

            They're not directly competing memes. One can't eradicate the other. They can only breed and multiply.

              I'm just waiting for the next incredibly popular cartoon to come out so people can moan about that and I can watch Ponies in peace.

                  Yeah, but as previously stated, this infests and spreads to other things people love and, like Sonic fans, ruins them.



                  Sonic fans ruin Jesus.

                  They even ruin ponies.

                    Okay, but have you seen the awful things bronies have done to ponies? There's nothing you can do to ponies that won't be embraced by some segment of the fandom.

                      As far as I'm concerned it's win-win. If I like the show I can join in on the fun. If I don't like the show I can just shrug and carry on with Ponies.

                      I mean people are acting as though there have been cartoons before whose fandoms haven't taken over the entire internet.

                      Oh wait...

                        Shush, i just want my revenge somehow. It used to be the worst of looking up video game fanart was some AerithXTifa shipping and that wasn't so bad, but then it evolved into Kingdom Hearts yaoi with Riku and Sora or Roxas and Axel.Then the furries came. And then there were bronies. Now the most obscure things are raped of their dignity.

                        I have no problem with the ponies, but a some point a meme has to be put down. And by that I mean euthanized. I only wish this so other memes can rise and ruin things their way.

                          Clearly you have never spent time with the Avatar fandom.

                              What is happening to that guy? Did someone show him the Mass Effect 3 ending?
