I have a friend who does this (not to this extreme, but similar) and, really, it just makes me want to punch him in the throat...

    I don't know what the problem is here. It's not like they're bacon ultimate cheeseburgers or anything....

    I've never understood the whole diet soda thing at a fast food restaurant. Seriously, I bet the person working inside smirks every time someone comes through the drive through and orders a crap load of unhealthy stuff and then a diet coke. Why not just get a regular coke?

    That looks delicious, apart from the nuggets IN the sauce!

    Get a ketchup dip! Get civilized!

    And the worst part is, your friend is probably one of those people who CAN eat like that and doesn't gain weight :-/

    I just don't see the point of the pizza crust... It'd be a better idea if they covered the whole thing with cheese.

    Just don't eat it after 6:32pm and you'll be fine.

    I guess I'm just a purist.

    I love all those things generally, but that just doesn't look like it's done well. Junk food is a craft like any other, and we really should take pride in it.

    This was jovial but lacking.

    I believe you forgot to account for the DLS changeover. Bring on the morbid obesity.
  • looks like something I used to do when I either got really drunk or really high lol

    Reminds me of stuff you'd expect to see from http://thisiswhyyourefat.tumblr.com/
    Good motivation I suppose in case you're craving something unhealthy.

    Why I would choose diet coke... Because regular tastes AWFUL. I prefer the taste of the sweeteners, thanks!

    actually he's quite a bit overweight, but he tells other people that they're going to be fat/stay fat because they drink regular coke. and, that, my friends makes me want to punch him in the throat.

    Time to start packing around a mirror for every time he says that.

    Um well - I agree most people are doing it wrong (they get the diet soda and then over eat junk food anyway) but regular soda adds a LOT of calories to a meal so - like if I have to go to mcdonalds I'll get a grilled chicken sandwich (no mayo) which is about 350 calories, but a regular soda would add like ...200-300 calories to that.

    I personally don't drink soda much (didn't grow up with it, the carbonation kind of bothers me, tastes too sweet) but my boyfriend is a HUGE soda fiend so turning his 5 regular sodas into 2 regulars and 3 diets, even without giving up a single bite of fast food, pretty much caused him to drop 20 lbs with almost zero effort.

    The Jerk.

    Is he actively trying to lose weight himself (...claiming to, at least), or is he just being judgmental for no reason to people that don't drink diet soda?

    he works out, but he still eats **** like this. Like, at Bdubs 18 wings, wedge fries and usually some sort of appetizer. And 8 diet cokes. yes, that's right, 8.

    I usually get turned off by food like that. but lately I've been wondering "how many calories is that.... and I bet I could burn that in under 2hrs."

    My son would eat something like that. He'll take a tortilla or a pita bread and fill it with disgusting stuff and then eat it.

    PS: with regards to the diet pop and fast food thing. It's really nothing worth snickering about. People that drink diet pop and eat fast food in the same meal certainly aren't saying they don't want to gain weight. Some people just like diet pop. Some people don't like that thick syrup taste of regular pop.
