"You are special and perfect just the way you are!" is the catch phrase these days.

Please don't thank me. Effusive fawning and obeisance of disciples, mendicants, and foot-kissers embarrass me.

The images, in Reply #4, and Reply #5

That is plain self-abuse, imo.

Choices have consequences.

If those who choose them [those consequences], want them, then that is OK.

Q.
But why should i or others, HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REMEDIATION OF, THEIR CONSEQUENCES [i.e. choices] ?

.

Am i being hard ?

Is that a 'hard' attitude, towards people 'who need the help of others' ?

And yet, if i was 'in their face' [these tubs of LARD] and critical, of their lifestyle choices [and if i was warning them of the consequences of their choices], ....would you also then, accuse me of persecuting such people [for their own lifestyle choices] ???

Hey !!

Just where in all of this, am i the good guy ! Grin

We can't be responsible, for the choices [i.e. for the mistakes] which other people make.

I am, and should be, responsible, for the mistakes which i make. [....if i keep making the same poor choices.]

180 cm, 65 kg
....and healthy.

Perfect case in point, critical of people who keep fit.
Bet the above poster is a fat perv in a lard cart.

We only need about 2,000 calories a day which we could easily get from even one small meal. A Maccas hamburger is already over 2,000 calories and that's without the fries and the coke. Some people would call that a snack. No wonder people weigh too much.
