95% of all the fat people in the world live in the USA
the other 5% live in Canada until their green card arrives
But your joke is wrong. People who live in Canada are much better off than people who live in the U.S. So your joke would've gone well if you had used Mexico instead of Canada. Here's the hard truth about that problem:
Parkland Memorial Hospital
Claim: A recent patient survey indicated that 70% of the women who gave birth at Parkland in the first three months of 2006 were illegal immigrants.
Status: True!

From above site
Approximately 119 million Americans, or 64.5 percent, of adult Americans are either overweight or obese.
Surely that is a majority making these people the norm? Should we not be castigating the 35.5% who do not fall into this category or does the minority view prevail?
Also how do you define who is fat and who is not?
Filling in the same details on these two sites produces massively different results, one saying I am ideal, one saying I am obese. Who do I believe?

The so-called "Iraqi Insurgent" is the name our government gave to the people who are fighting for their freedom in their own country!
If America was invaded by millions of Chinese and they tried to force their government on us, then the freedom fighters would be labeled "insurgents".
Some people cannot accept the truth.
Originally posted by EcstremeVenomErm, that's not necessarily true either. I recently went to a class reunion,
then that is their fault, but parents with a fat kid should do something about it or else the kid will be fat his/her whole life
and one of the fattest guys in our class were actually more fit than me now.
And then there's always the George Michael example, I suppose.
