Spyder- tongue.gif , oh yes, we hear all the obesity epidemic! OMG it is like the plague, run! Actually I got curious after watchng How Clean is Your House? so much. They all seemed to have fridges about the size of what we call the mini-fridge. Yeah, since I've been following portions sizing, my fridge isn't as full as it used to be...and I've lost 37 pounds. Seriously though, you should try Wendy's if you ever come to America. I hadn't been there in a long time. Then the other day we decided it would be a nice treat. We asked for medium...the cups wouldn't even fit in the cup holder! They were huge! We thought they may have made a mistake, but no, they said that was a medium. WTF?
Hunter
Congrats on the weight loss, but Wendy's ick if you want "good" fast food you go for A&W.
spyderjaxon
Spyder- The only one I know of is two counties away...and I can't stand to get a drink there. The coke always tastes like root beer. Which I think is icky.
Jabba
Id also like to point out that the american child size is our medium in drinks... This actually means that your cup holder is almost twice the size of an english one... tongue.gif gotta love that...
... And in that TV program usually the people have only a fridge and not a frigde freezer so they are considerably smaller. Sorry i have been inactive recently i tend to spend weekends with my GF. i have an exam tomorrow *cries* im so gonna fail.
Hunter
blink.gif you don't like root beer? I've met one other person like that and now the only pop she drinks is Root beer and Sprite. But A&W > all other greasy burger joints.

PS Ghis if you are going to spend the day online lurking like I do, I think you should post a bit too tongue.gif

Spyder- Fast food stories continues(at least one more time): #1: FACT: Mcdonald's no longer offers a small size combo, nor will they make a single regular cheeseburger a meal. #2 Observation: Fast food employees look at you funny if you order a kid's meal without a kid.

Edit: I don't why, I just don't like it. But yeah, the food is pretty good.
Jabba
Root beer? cant say i had heard of it till now...

EDIT: they still do those things in england, and actually they usually smile if you get the childs meal without a child here... which is nice biggrin.gif though the fact that they have spat in your burger isnt... also i hate ALL fast food

Edit: Do you hate Sub shops too? I like them, mainly cause I can have a sandwich with all the fixings I might be craving, but I don't have to worry about using up whole veges later.
Hunter
I find it sweeter and easier to drink than coke, but if you try to avoid junk food I guess it would be better to avoid it too.
Jabba
okies noted, and we have subways here... a guy tried to sue them because they measure their sandwhiches in imperial mesurements and we have metric over here... he failed.

Also like to tell a story, americans spent something along the lines of $3million on making a pen that would work upsidedown in a total vacum and under water... the russians took a pencil biggrin.gif

It's completely true. During the Space Race, NASA realized astronauts couldn't record scientific observations in space with a ballpoint pen. So, they developed the pressurized ballpoint pen that works amazingly well in any amount of pressure, including vacuums and underwater. During this time, the Russians merely used graphite pencils, giving them a slight advantage.

Yes, now you go and watch all of Monty Python's Flying Circus to find out who Mr. Gumby is and why he always says "My brain hurts" I figured that you had seen it and would have seen how funny that is, any Python fan worth his coconut shells would have picked up on it.

And so I did. I personally like Monty Python's Village Idiot skit. "This man specializes in falling off walls."

My friend and I made a video of Dead Parrot, it was that or Twit of the Year. Since we showed our other friends and they didn't like the idea of acting as twits we opted for Dead Parrot. Every time I see the Blame Australians thread pop up I think of the Bruces.

Now, on an other note, today, there is not enogh coffee in the worl to satisfy me.

The worl is notoriously bad at keeping coffee stocks up. To be expected, really. When you're too lazy to fetch the 'd' in world, coffee is a bit beneath your apathetic gaze.

im just wondering, what are signs of ADD... other than lack of attention span. i myself think i have a bad attention span... oh so bad.

btw, verbose, your name suits you
Blue
If you have ADD it's ussually not that horribly bad but some people can't sit around for more than 30 seconds.
The Lone David
I don't believe that ADD truly exists, it's just something made up by the medical high council (or whatever) to keep parents from asking them why they can't figure out whats wrong with their kid.


If you are diagnosed with "ADD" Grym I would fight that, the pills they give you leave you in a haze the entire day, it kills your appetite (When I was on aterol I lost 35 pounds in 3 weeks, going fron 140 to 105, that's not healthy.) and essentially turn you into a different person.

I disagree. I blame the parents for the overdiagnosis of ADD.

I do believe there are people out there who, due to some defect in their character, are incapable of functioning properly because of no attention. Most of the people who get diagnosed with ADD simply have a short attention span and/or parents who can't control them.
The Lone David
Yes, hypochondriac parents are also to blame. However, if at all possible avoid the medication, that is, if you don't want to be an anorexic zombie.
Verbose
And why would you want to avoid being any kind of zombie?
