On Diets

Too Fat To Work – Send Money
There follows, in this article, after the picture, a bunch of names and weights, reducing these people to numbers and letters. Nevermind that. There follows a description of the horrid fatty foods they are forced to eat because they don’t know and can’t afford any better. Let me tell you, “Bacon Butties” sounds good, and [...]
