Your name is "bet you fail", and you're starting a business with your mom? I'm not even going to touch that.....

Quite frankly i am disgusted at the way you wrote that post. Last i checked dancing was an effective way to lose weight so that throws your night club experience out the window.

 

 

 

FYI, people rarely go to clubs to actually dance, thats just the precursor activity.

Lol, love how you generalize them as Brits, I guess if they still worship the queen (Britland, Canadia, South Afrika, Austria) they're still Brits.

What, did fat americans move to australia?

 

 

 

Okay, that's it. I'm so [bleep] sick of you poeple making fun of americans. Hell, I live in america, I'm also so underweight that I have to take calcium pills. Also, debating the whole"America has more people...Australia is smaller" thing, doesn't that make Americans the best at everything? Because really we probably have the MOST smart people, the MOST athletic people, unless you count China, but I hate them anyway. So bravo, =D> you're all officially on my List of [wagon] Europeans/Asians/Africans.

 

 

 

Well a large number of the Americans are fat, which some of them are dumb which in turn gave America a bad reputation. You overreacted in my opinion *Points that you hate Europeans/Asians/Africans apparently*.

no one compares to the SEALs

 

 

 

Suppose that's why they came 3rd in the last World wargames championships eh? :-w

 

 

 

If I remember correctly they were beaten by the SAS and German special forces.

We should make a secret American high-five, and make those filthy Europeans feel left out. :twisted:

 

 

 

Thing is, 19/20 people in Europe wouldn't care if we were left out of your secret handshake thing as at this stage most of Europe has lost all respect for America. :lol:

 

The sad part is, I bet it's cus all that tea just fills up your head.

 

 

 

Wow, sorry but that is the worst attempt at a joke / flame I've ever seen :lol:

Marine Force Recon didn't compete, did they?

So is calling an American fat, or telling us the world doesn't like us.

 

What the hell did we do to Europe?

catch it now so you can like it before it went so mainstream

Australia is a [bleep] lazy country!

 

 

 

People don't do anything here, its constant public holidays I can go to a nightclub any night of the week and find it packed because people only have to work 2-3 days a week and the few of us who do work pay them for it with welfare.

 

 

 

Most Australian's especially uni students deserve a good [wagon] kicking. instead of being aloud to lay about and leech of the rest of us.

 

 

 

 

 

I believe we are fat because half of us do nothing.

 

 

 

Come on DaN, drop the stereotypes and hyperbole. You know that isn't a real depiction of working class Australians.

 

 

 

Any uni student that has an interest in passing and isn't naturally gifted (me) has to work their [wagon] off with reading, note taking, answering revision questions, writing up pracs (an absolute ball-breaker for me this semester), etc, just to get decent marks. If you think the work stops with the contact hours, you're dead wrong.

 

 

 

Hell, I wrote up half a notebook and more for revision of one exam for one unit and probably got 60% for the bastard.

 

 

 

I'll admit it though, I'm lucky that I don't have to work off my hex debt or pay rent on a place like many of my mates do, on top of all the study they need to do to pass.

What the hell did we do to Europe?

 

 

 

We only saved them from their evil monarchies, the Nazi's and the Soviet's in that order, you know, nothing big.

 

Eh, the KGB still controls all of eastern Europe.

They only control like Russia and Serbia, no important countries.

Sure enough you're all capable of having an intelligent discussion about the issue rather than resorting to name calling, "fatass's" as an example.

 

 

 

If you're not here to contribute to a good discussion, flame elsewhere. You're not doing your country any good by the filth coming out of some people's mouths in here.

 

 

 

We're not here to discuss who saved who's [wagon] or who came from where or what queen who worships. The discussion is about being overweight.

 

 

 

 

FYI, people rarely go to clubs to actually dance, thats just the precursor activity.

 

 

 

FYI - I really think you should stop talking on behalf of every person. I know plenty of night clubs where I live that are purely devoted to dancing. There are no outside areas or places to hang out. Sit on the couch and rest for a bit or get off your [wagon] and bust a groove.

 

 

 

For a statement as strong as yours I suggest posting some research or putting a zipper on the lips.

The only people who tell you that you can't do something are those who have already given up on their own dreams so feel the need to discourage yours.

What has ANY of that got to do with the topic? Are you here for a productive discussion or not?

Wow, never saw this coming. Is it blamed on the excess of fast-food like in the U.S., or what?

The CSIRO and Australian Medical Assoc. are mainly blaming it on the aging population in Australia. As you get older, you naturally store fat efficiently because of the slowing metabolism. Australia is populated by many more older citizens than the younger generation.

Yes, that makes perfect sense. Here in the U.S. however, it's the younger generation that is becoming obese. It's partly due to the increasing availability of fattening foods (ie: fast food) and the lack of exercise among school-age children. The worst part is, it's only going to get worse as long as the parents stand by and let it happen.

Yes, here in Texas school is focusing completely on state testing. Physical education is coming back, and now its necessary to finish high school. I know many other states, however, have little or no physical education.

Who cares if you're called fat, if you're not then there's nothing to worry you Americans. ::'

 

 

 

And dude, Serbia isn't even remotly a part of Russia:

Is it really needed to express your gratification of a different country on an Australian topic?

wait, was that a fat joke? Not bad, perhaps...

Yea, because the physical education in schools actually offers enough physical activity to stave off the obesity :roll: It may be required, but that doesn't at all mean it works. Granted, it may inspire some kids to work out or play some sport, but if the targetted kids are those that get no exercise, one class every two or so days won't cut it.

I know what you mean. At my school we have these group of [girls with loose morals] who don't do anything. They flirt with the teacher and get away not doing anything. Then theres the 90% of the other students who don't care and just do enough to pass the class.

 

The school system has to relise that if they want to make us fit, they gotta give us things we enjoy. Ulitmate frisbee, gymastics, volley-tennis (Seriously, WTF?) were very unpopular with us. On the other hand, 98% of the guys in my class alone LOVE basketball. They'll get out on the court in a second if we played basketball.

 

 

 

P.S Perhaps it was Lenin. Perhaps it was...

Chances are it was me, but might I inquire as to what it is I'm being accused of?
