    Americans and eating

    With a lot of shows like Man V food etc I was just watching Only in America and they had another eat off in some texas fare? Does happen all over america? Is it all done for bragging rights or what?

    Only in America?

    Try Google UK eating contest or UK mince pie eating championship or world pie eating contest in Greater Manchester, England.

    This stuff is everywhere. Lets stop with all the America is the only one who does this or that. All countries are pretty much equally stupid and screwed up but everyone likes to pick on the top dog so to speak.

    Ohh I know, I'm only just wondering that is all cos it just seems to be on tv. Is it like a competition thing or what that's all I'm asking? I don't mean to upset people at all.

    Just another useless waste of time and brain cells for people to watch on TV. They will do anything now days and call it entertainment.

    I was thinking about it recently actually... and this guy must have an insane training program, because based on all that sh!t he eats, he should be in MUCH worse shape imo. Just think... he probably trains his ass off... just to not be AS fat. Being in shape isn't even a consideration for him, lol! Gotdamn careers...

    WHY are there so many fvcking electric chairs in Walmart? Seriously... wtf?

    Seriously we all need to start using those electric baskets at Walmart keeping them tied up so those fat folks have to walk through the stores thereby doing them a favor helping them to lose weight.

    and how do you qualify for a ele cart at walmart? is there a fat-ass membership card? do you have to weigh more than 400lbs?

    maybe, the next time i go there, i should, just for the 'ell of it, climb aboard and take one for a spin?

    can you imagine the whispers behind my back? "mommy, look! what's that skinny guy riding the fat guy cart for"?

    Seriously... I can't understand why Walmart attracts the dregs of society. Sure the prices are cheap, but they're not THAT cheap. Nothing that should have people flocking there imo. I'm willing to bet there's not a full set of teeth in that entire store in some areas... smdh

    Just tell them you have a knee injury and cannot stand or walk for any length of time. Then ride that thing all you want. I wonder if they are go about the same speed. Hmmm, that obviously requires races to find out.

    Ahh it's like Tesco over here they are percieved cheaper than anyone else and well some people are lunatics and really have nothing else better to do. When I worked in a supermarket when I was younger you would see the same people there all the time just wondering around cos they have nothing else better to do like.

    We do competitive eating because we are the United States of Awesome and we will kick your *ss at ANYTHING!

    If there is (and I am sure there is) an International League of Orchid Husbandry, I bet we are aggressively represented. But that begs the question: how come we aren't better at soccer/football? We have millions of kids playing it every year, have lots of money to put into sports teams and yet aren't at the top of the heap. We are better at making and playing soccer video games than we are at playing actual soccer.

    I love eating. I also love being American and being able to eat a 1 1/2 lb cheeseburger almost any time I please.

    God Bless us.
