Japanese eat very little fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

Mexicans eat a lot of fat and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

Chinese drink very little red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

Italians drink excessive amounts of red wine and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

Germans drink beer and eat lots of sausages and fats and suffer fewer heart attacks than us.

CONCLUSION: Eat and drink what you like. Speaking English is apparently what kills you.

    Or don't marry either one of those cause they will outlive you and have fun with your life insurance policy...with someone of their country of origin.

    I think its because we tend to be fat and overworked. Say what you want about all these people being hard working, but...from what I have seen, Americans tend to work harder than most.

    Actually, Italians don't drink to excess - just because we enjoy a glass of wine with a meal, it doesn't mean we drink excessive amounts! Drunken-ness is actually frowned upon by the majority of Italians, and we don't have the drinking culture that, say the British do! Just sayin' :wink:

    ETA: Yes, I know this is a humorous thread!

    So I bet you all realy frowned on the cast of Jersey Shore when they went "back to the motherland" as they so called it... :laugh: :drinker:

    FYI Snooki doesn't even have Italian roots for anyone who doesn't already know that. :happy:

    If I can switch to speaking English with a Filipino accent does that count?
