Not criticizing, but we're already actively discussing the subject here.

TL;DR: The article is mostly right

I have a theory. If I lose weight, it always seems that someone in my sphere gains about that amount. I believe that's what keeps the earth balanced and in the correct orbit. That's why China is so heavily populated: because they are usually thinner, it takes more of them to balance out the bloated westerners.

I can't believe I have to say this but I'm joking.

When you were younger and had had a pet, especially a dog, at some point your parents may have told you that it went "to live on a farm". That's where your fat goes. To a fat farm.

mine doesn't seem to go very far sometimes it just takes a short trip round the block and comes right on back.
