Definitely didn't see these kinds of fatties or fat slobbery lazy kids when there were NO Mc Donalds, KFC, and Hungry Jacks store in Australia. Looks like Australia just imported the fat epidemic from the USA.
I'm old enough to remember the times before the fast food invasion. Our meals were home cooked except for the occasional fish and chips from the corner Greek owned fish shop. I grew up in a beachside suburb, young working class families with a lot of kids. I spent most of my youth surfing, fishing, spearfishing and stuff like this. No computers, no video games, not even video recorders. My mum would chase me outside to enjoy the good weather. Backyard cricket, touch footy in the park and riding bicycles. I even walked or rode to school,, we were a one car family. Kids nowadays don't do this any more. Too much time spent in front of computers or the telly whilst snacking on sh!t food. Houses with no back yards for kids to play in, and parents too paranoid and fearful to send their kids to the park to kick a ball around. Too much time watching sport than actually playing it.
Hey lizardust Same here, when i was growing up in melbourne after school we would go home change eat and then head of to the park which was always full of kids. Most would be from my school so we would either play aussie rules if we had the numbers like ten a side, somethimes soccer sometimes cricket depending on the season. There must have been on average about 30 kids in that park everyday after school and on weekends there was more, sometimes on the weekend we wpuld miss meals just to hang around for that footy or crivket game. Now when i drive past this same park after visiting my parents i tell my kids all about it and somethimes they think i'm making it up, cause these days you would be lucky to see one single kid in there? About that photo that condition would have to be genetic wouldn't it plus the fact that they have given up trying to do anything about it.
You can't just follow the fat people, There are other fast food resturtants they could go to. Follow the wrappers. They'll guide you in the right direction. Or to the hospital. Either way, you'll be going there if you eat at McDonalds.
Yep, I think its a sign of the times... When I was a kid, I was always up at the park, playing cricket and footie with my mates. We always looked forward to when they mowed the oval and prepared the pitch for the saturday game of cricket...all the creases were marked out and the smell of freshly mown grass was something special...if we wanted a change, there was always backyard cricket where over the fence was out and my best mate always reckoned he was not out on lbw's.... Even my kids loved playing touch footy in the mud up at the park with their mates... Clothes off at the door lads...out with the hose...into the shower...those were the days... Nowadays, drive around past the parks....no-one....parents worry too much about paedophiles behind every tree, and the kids are sitting at home playing video games.... Aaah well.....
Should these great fat pigs and so many others like them, be removed to a locked sanatorium and forced to diet until they are a normal weight? People who deliberately harm themselfs can be legaly put in locked mental hospitals, why not the morbidly obese?
