Fattest man in the UK

[Iain]

Was on the tube a couple of nights ago, this bloke weighs in at 49 stone but what really got me was that he doesn't appear to work but manages to go out to a restaurant and eat the entire menu, drink 20 pints of beer a night, 40 if he is celebrating something, eats sausages bacon fried potatoes for brekky, enough for about 10 people then eats everyone elses leftovers.
If he can afford to do this sounds like I would be better off being unemployed there than working here!!!!
Anyone else watch this?

[Wongo]

I watched it too and like you I don't know where they get their money from.

From appearing on TV documentaries! It's the modern day version of the freak show

Social security must be pretty good over there... if you don't mind living like a pig. Not for me though.
What got me is - how does he wipe his backside, does his missus do it for him?
She was wiping the moisture out of his fat roll crevices so he didn't go all mank, so perhaps she does that as well.

Disgusting.

If it's on TV it must be true!!...................maybe.

[silentC]

Thanks for the mental image, Clinton!!

Is it an illness or are they just simply fat lazy food eaters? In other words, can they blame the society or should they just blame themselves?

Blaming society is just a cop out, it is there choice!!

It's their metabolism!

[woodbe]

There was a bloke in the US a few years ago, that was so fat they had to put him on a diet so he could fit through the doorways of his own house.

Dunno how someone could do that to themselves, but they do...

Well lets see, a pot of beer (which is less than a pint) costs $3.20, that equates to 160 a week if he celebrates something once so that is a beer budget of $512.00 alone.
Most Indian restaurants I have been to have a main for about, lets say $15.00, there are about 15 mains so that is another $225 which of course does not include the side dishes.
Then he has to have his breakfast, lets call it a trruckies stop for a cheaper feed, probably about $7.00 for one but he has more so thats about $35 a day so equates to about $245 a week.
So far we are up to $982 a week just for booze and brekky, have not included lunch dinner, his footy outings or other day to day expenses.
Not a bad life, not that I think it will last much longer.

More likely a hose in the backyard, or a water blaster

As to why and having a metabolism, more likely their mental-ablism

There were no fat people at Auchwitz or the russian Gulag's except the guards :mad:

[Clinton1]

can they blame the society or should they just blame themselves?

Yes and yes. They can (and possibly do) blame society, or their mummies or kindy teacher, but they should blame themselves.

Glad to oblige Silent!

As for $, who knows, he might be a web designer who works from home, or a consultant on "lifestyle aids for the well rounded". Obviously he believes that if a jobs worth doiong it is worth doing well!

If he lived in the States, he could have his chap pick some of these up for him, no doubt a tasty nibble between meals.

So he should just eat less, a depressed person should just cheer up a bit and an anorexic girl just needs a good feed? I don't think anyone here could say why he's done that to himself.
