Would you rather be obese or a smoker

Finding it hard to choose =/ Both will probably lead to an early death.

Leaning on the side of obese... My dad's very, very anti-smoking, my family would probably disown me, and I've been brainwashed to hate it from birth.

But then, I'm also very self-conscious, and that would be about a thousand times worse if obese.

So.... bleh.

anyway, I choose smoking(since I used to and still do occasionally) it's bad for you but at least it feels good - no one wants to be a super fatassnightshade85

Sounds like a superhero...

Smoker. Cause I can work my way to quitting.

Do you know how hard it is to sweat away crazy amounts of fat, then do something about the excess? :lol:

There's still many variables you don't mention so I'll make them up for my own personal taste.

If you're a big person structure wise 350 wouldn't be crazy obese so I'll choose that. Overall I'd probably go with obese because I find that weight doesn't usually effect peoples attitudes in a way that craps on others. I honestly think that heavy people are generally nicer to others. Smoking on the other hand bothers me because a lot of smokers are just plain inconsiderate of others. IE. it's ok to liter as long as I'm just throwing my cigarette butt out the window and not a piece of what you might consider garbage. I see this like 10 times a day or more. What I dont see is 10 fat guys throwing there mcdonalds bags out the window.

Another good example is I can't stand when someone smokes around there children or in a majorly packed public place. I see this happen quite a bit as well.

Before all you smokers get upset, please know I'm not saying this to offend you as it's not all smokers. I just find smoking is one of the top things I see that brings out really bad and disrespectful habits and traits in people. So I'm not ripping on you as I don't know you personally and know you do these things. I just am completely put off by the thought of people smoking for said reasons.

I hate fat people. I would rather die than be fat. Besides, gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins.askzander

Wow that's quite a generaliztion you have there. So all fat people deserve to be hated? Also what does gluttony have to do with being fat? Not everyone who's overweight is heavy because they shovel food in there mouths.

Gluttony in Catholicism - is one of the Seven Deadly Sins. Defined as the wasting of food, either through overindulgence (food, drink or intoxicants), the misplaced desire for food for its sensuality, or the withholding of food from the needy.

Dictionary term for Gluttony - habitual eating to excess, eating to excess (personified as one of the deadly sins)

smoker...although both decisions are the worst decisions you can do to hurt your health at least some chicks dig smoking =D

or i can be a 350 pound 9 foot guy...thats not obese =D

Really? I don't see that in his post anywhere. He pretty much black and white states that he hates people that are overweight. He then goes on to allude to the point that all heavy people are overweight because they can't control there eating habits.

being obese is due to either heredity or not controling their eating habits most of the time its the second one cause even if its heredity some people burn it off....i dont hate anyone though

I hate smokers (only the kind that aren't considerate to those who can't stand smoking), so I choose obesity.

Smokers can get lung cancer, therefore shortening their life span significantly. Plus, most smokers are jerks.

Most obese people are actually nicer than smokers. And they aren't all gluttonous (I haven't even seen a gluttonousobese person... not counting the movie Se7en).

askzander: You are a one-track-minded person and you should feel ashamed of yourself. If you really feel that way about being close to someone who is obese, move further away.

Pretty easy choice.
Smoker.
NO ONE wants to be that fat, than you can't even move.

Feeling ya bro!

I haven't even seen a gluttonousobese person.scorch-62

Most fat people are fat because they are lazy and/or they eat way too much crap and/or they don't exercise. I have also never met a fat person who was apologetic about his weight. If an elevator has too many people, the fatty should volunteer to get out. If an airplane has one seat left, the fatty should take a different flight. At restaurants, the fatties should not order an absurd amount of food and shovel half of it into their mouth and smear the other half on their face. That is rude and disgusting.

I know overweight people who eat a heck of a lot better than myself and all my friends and yet they are still much larger than I.

Why should someone be apoligetic about his weight? Their weight doesn't hurt you in any way.

As for your elevator story. So you're saying when an elevator gets crowded everyone should do a waist measurement and the person with the largest waist should be removed from the elevator? Man super models are going to love you.

In almost all circumstances a large person on a plane still only takes up one seat. The exact space a skinny person wuold take up. Are you going to go after handicapped people next because they might have to park there wheelchair in the isle, which might god forbid be in your way? Or how about pregnant woman, can you believe them big girls and there needs.

I've never seen a fat person smear food on there face in a restaurant and I really doubt you have either. I have however had thousands of smokers blow there smoke into an area I was in, therefor making me susceptable to there second hand smoke. Which I find repulsive as well as a medical issue for my lungs.

It sounds like you have a pyshological issue with large people.

OK so still you have 20 people in the elevator and the heavyist person is 6' 1" and 175 lbs. He should be the one to go because he's the biggest? Makes no sense. Or do you go by looks and who looks the fattest for his or her size should go.

"I'm sorry mam but you kid looks like a big 40 pound piece of lard, no I don't care if he's two, he's fat and therefor he has to go. Now are you going to place him outside the elevator or do I need to do it for you".
