@20 So is Elenchos. But I understand his frustration: he has a good point here, one which he's made many times, and one that Dan will never acknowledge.

If you have a decent diet, get at least the suggested minimum of exercise, and your doctor feels that you're doing an adequate job of maintaining your health, but are still not particularly thin, then that should be okay. I don't think we should judge people who put in the effort to be healthy, because it can be long process for some people and we should encourage the right behaviors.
The problem is that these "fat acceptance" folks find fault with the very idea of pushing and strongly encouraging people to pursue healthy behaviors. That is wrong. You can be reasonably healthy without being skinny, but only up to a point.

@1 Actually, when I think about the size progression of family members, it seems like they were all heavier in their 50's and 60's than they were in their 70's and 80's. I always chalked it up to the fact that old people shrink.

Well, my first thought is that if anyone would understand and be able to properly analyze the craziness of fundamentalist Christians, it would be Frank Schaeffer. But my second thought is that these days, Frank stands to gain from inflating the threat of fundamentalist Christianity because that's what sells his books. For the sake of our country and the safety of our president, I hope that the latter, and not the former, is true.

She has a point. If Ash and his friends had judged the Necronomicon by it's skin, he wouldn't have ended up with a chainsaw where his hand is supposed to be.

@13 True, and I appreciate your attempt to inject some levity into this disturbing topic.
I am at once both totally squicked out by this and totally curious as to what it tastes like. Cultural relativism be damned, those Chinese sure come up with some wacky shit.

Yeah, it's old news, but so what? The Hall of Douchebags is always hilarious.

What the hell is up with Seattle's fetish for turning traditionally inexpensive foods and dining experiences into pretentious, overpriced nonsense like this? First we get street food that's more expensive than a decent sit-down restaurant meal, now we get fucking $7.00 hot dogs? Ridiculous.

Whoa, why do you have it in for the Olympics? I'm just trying to figure out what a long-running international sporting competition did to deserve that headline.
