Title: We're all fat...
Post by: rjs246 on June 19, 2009, 12:56:49 PM
... and it's farging up the country severely. (http://www.prospect.org/cs/articles?article=wealth_care_reform) Well, I'm not fat, so my conscious is clear. But you jerks are screwing us.

Seriously this is a great article about Health Care and how better health care won't actually make us any healthier, but making ourselves healthier as a population will greatly reduce the cost of Health Care.

QuoteThe irony is that though the health-care system might not make individuals much healthier, improving the health of individuals might do a lot to ease the problems of the health system. Health promotion could help health reform. At the end of the day, costs are going to come down in one of three ways: We will buy less care, give fewer people access to care, or need less care. Indeed, estimates hold that between 20 percent and 30 percent of the rise in health costs since 1987 is attributable to the doubling of obesity rates over the same period. That's spending driven by need. Reduce need, and there's a good case to be made that you can reduce spending.

We have a 600 page thread about politics on this board. We have a 60 page thread about the dire financial straights the country is in. We have a 20 page thread about working out and dieting. I would say that anyone with half a brain should care about improving our health because it impacts everything about everyone's life.

shtein, I'm hardly a picture of health what with my various addictions and hideous diet, and I care about this. I don't want to pay for Tubby McGoo to get treated for diabetes for 40 years just because he's too stupid to put down the Twinkies.

How bout we just encourage fatties to engorge themselves and be less healthy?  They'll die so we won't have to look at them and if they die fast enough it will probably save a ton of cash. Win win.

Liverwurst.  Hoagie Roll.

yeah i guess i just think of liverwurst on crackers or crostini...not a hoagie roll...all that bread mushed all together with wurst doesnt sound appetizing...i feel like liverwurst because of its mushy texture should be eaten on something hard

that said id eat two of them just to cost russell some extra money

There's a bakery down here that makes a half-decent version of an Atlantic City hard roll so I bagged one this morning and got some Boar's Head liverwurst to go with it.

I'd like to tax the ever living shtein out of fast food, soft drinks, store bought cookie and crackers, etc. 

Put 'em at the back of the line for plane seats and if there isn't room to put them on, bump 'em to the next flight. 

Make them stand on the subway.

Make them pay for their knee and back surgeries themselves.

Ban them entirely.  Internment camps.  Put 'em to work baking cookies for those of us who actually have self control and dignity.

Also ban fatties from using the Internet.

On a serious note, taxing the shtein out of unhealthy behavior (food, tobacco, hookers, weed, *gulp* alcohol) should be done and should have been done a very long time ago. People aren't going to completely stop doing any of those things, but it will curb the behavior of those who are indifferent and raise serious amount of dough.

actually one of the ideas being tossed around to pay for barrys health care plan is a 10 cent tax on soda...im a fatty and id be all for this...then again im a rich fatty...then again it would also include diet soda

Diet soda still has disgusting shtein in it that the human body can't process. Less calories is ok I guess, but there is some seriously farged up shtein that goes into soda that just sits in your body and never gets processed similar to trans fats. Soda is farging gross. Which doesn't actually stop me from drinking it now and then.

I was at the supermarket a few days ago and they had wings cooking at the kiosk where they give food away as samples.  I ate one and goddamn if it wasn't the most delicious farging chicken wing ever.  It was naked, (no breading) extra crispy, mildly spicy and piping hot. 

Delicious.

PS: Hooters wings are gross.  Just thought I'd mention it.

Scrapple on buttered toast with a fried egg and slice of American cheese. Or, corned beef hash on a plate with two fried eggs on top. I gained a pound typing that.

We have a winner.  Nevermind you miss the sarcasm of my posts, you nail the point.  Moralizing about how people live...fat, smokers, druggies, etc....is great so long as you're the one doing the moralizing.  If you're willing to get on the bandwagon for one, then you had better be on board for all.

If there was sarcasm, I missed it.  This isn't the first time you went on the pedestal against fatties.  You've never seen me rail against any of those groups.  May have said I don't particularly care for one or more of the activities, but I've never stepped up on the Dio platform to say how much one group sucks.

And I'm also a heavy drinker, so if you had sarcasm, then so did I.

I deep fry wings in a mixture of flour and Old Bay. Gotta' use either peanut oil, or canola. Then douse them in wing sauce. I have my own recipe, but Texas Pete wing sauce is as good as any I've ever had. Wings cooked in the oven are ok, but I like deep fried chit better.
Title: Re: We're all fat...
Post by: Rome on June 21, 2009, 11:05:08 AM
Do you throw the wings back on the grill after you douse them in sauce?  Just curious because I farging hate sloppy wings.
Title: Re: We're all fat...
Post by: shorebird on June 21, 2009, 11:10:18 AM
No, but thats an idea worth trying. Usually they are pretty crisp, so the sauce doesn't slop them up too bad. Still, a minute on the grill sounds like it would work rather nicely. I normally don't like wings from the oven, takes away from the flavor, imo.

There's a place down here called Houligans that does their version of the grilled wing.  They call it the Wally Wing for some reason.  Anyway, they charge an extra 10 cents for each wing to grill them.  Never quite figured that one out but it's worth it.

Robert's in Margate has the absolute best wings on Earth, though.  In fact if I was in Margate right now I'd probably have a face full of them in front of me.  That and mussels with red sauce and a loaf of Rando bread from A.C.
