I swear no one in this whole ass thread remembers John Candy or Chris Farley. There were plenty of fat dudes and dudettes back in the 80s and 90s. Yes Americans are getting fatter, but it's not nearly as profound as everyone is making it out to be. Trust me there were tons of fat motherfuckers running around back then too.
"In the early 1960s, roughly 13% of people were considered obese by Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidelines. Recent figures suggest that a current national obesity rate closer to 43%."
Looks to me the fatties have doubled since the 80s and 90s. Just because there used to be fat people before, doesn't mean there's no problem today. Line goes up. If the trend continues, it's just like 2-3 decades till almost everyone is fat.
Seems like a big problem to me
What are you even arguing? OP is talking about what is accepted as fat has changed. Those two examples you mentioned? Fat. Gomer Pile? Disgusting fat body.
No one is talking about comparative stats against other countries or questioning the existence of fat people π
Also, you type like you're trying to not sound like the mid 30s person you are, whole assidly ππ€£
Itβs really weird how everyone went into what about mode.

Sincerely a fat motherfucker.
