The green philosophy: You're fat and you have everyone else to blame
Most of us in cheese curd/custard/brat land could lose some weight. I know I could.
I am not in denial. That treasure chest of excuses could be opened rather easily. Not enough exercise. Eating the wrong things at the wrong time. Can’t be too bad because TV adds 15 pounds.
Excuses. That’s what they are. People who are overweight are overweight because they allowed themselves by their own choices and behavior to become overweight.
Now, if I was a flaming, tree-hugging hyper enviro, I could cleanse myself on any personal responsibility because, silly, a fat person isn’t to blame for being fat.
I know this because the green web site, Treehugger.com says so. Treehugger bills itself as “the leading media outlet dedicated to driving sustainability mainstream. Partial to a modern aesthetic, we strive to be a one-stop shop for green news, solutions, and product information.”
You can just see the beads and sandals, can't you?
If you’re fat, it’s not because you’ve been planting your sorry posterior in front of the TV and computer too much. It’s not because you sleep with bags of Doritos. It’s not because your favorite dessert is prime rib.
Lo and behold, Treehugger.com says don’t stress, El Gordo. You can’t help it, Tubbo. Here are the evil forces responsible for you floating over stadiums:
Cul de Sacs
McMansions
Gender Bender chemicals
The government
Cheap gas
Cars
There’s a McDonald’s near you, I bet
Suburbs
Architecture
Your zip code
Missing in this nutso litany…..
YOU, YOU LARD BUTT. YOU MAKE YOURSELF FAT!
