Men’s Fitness again persecutes the Dallas-Fort Worth area with its annual fatty issue

Email Print Tell us your story Comments (17)

Once again, the Dallas-Fort Worth area makes a strong showing in the annual list of fattest cities published by Men's Fitness magazine. Arlington and Fort Worth were No. 2 and No. 4 on the list which analyzes factors such as health care, air quality, and the number of fast food restaurants per capita. Las Vegas is No. 1.

This calls for a celebration. Anyone up for pizza? Burgers? Both?

What does air quality have to do with being fat?

Needs more fidgeting, btw.

I think the article is a bit misleading SD. The list (an article in MH every month) lists things like "fattest city", "worst air cities", etc. "fattest cities" is just the one for whatever month this came out.

Well, krld is blocked from my work PC. And googling is too much effort (I'm busy fidgeting).

I maintain that people need to get their fidget on, regardless.

Let's see.... there are three types of guys in Dallas: Douche, Mushroom, Gay

The fat guys fall into the Mushroom category. They even look like mushrooms with those over-sized shirts to cover the muffin top!

(Now begins the stereotyping of the Dallas women...)

Great, I'm a douche. Beats the Mushroom alternative, though, and I guess I prayed the gay away in the womb or something.

Pavel, what are you blabbering about? We've been through this.

Ting, that hurts. Just cause a guy's not fat and/or gay he's a douche? So harsh.

Scott:

If you attend Jesuit, SMU, live in Uptown or the Hollow or are a 30k Millionaire, strong chances that you are a Douche.

Luniz:

There is hope, it's called a gym.

Fun fact: Most transvestites are not actually gay.

And I wonder what happened in Ting's life that caused her to sort all men in those three categories. I bet it involved 1. Booze, 2. A family reunion, and 3. a ladle.

Ting... read the other story here. All the good guys are coupled.

ting:

I don't attend anything of religious nature if I can avoid it, I don't live anywhere near Uptown (Preston Hollow is kinda close, presuming that's the Hollow you reference...but I certainly don't live in it), and 30k is an absolute insult. Not to mention, I basically live off what I did when I put myself through school and save the difference.

Oh, and I'm not a fatty or a gay.

But thanks for lumping me in with your amazingly stereotyped douche crowd. May you forever be cursed with their company for doing so!

Oh, if you're sweating the SMU thing, I double-majored at UNT. But for the record, I'd have happily gone to SMU on someone else's dime.

luniz, just read the KRLD article since I'm at home and it's not blocked...considering it also doesn't mention anything but the fatty list, I'd still be confused if it weren't for you. You're a gentleman and a scholar (and any other generic kudos that might apply).

Such is the nature of a site which basically aggregates local news, I guess. Especially when the source itself is a one-off. =p

GWAR / Kingdom of Sorrow / Toxic Holocaust Only lead singer Oderus Urungus (aka Dave Brockie) has stuck around since GWAR's start 23 years ago, but the huge costumes, raunchy and obscene lyrics, and fluids spraying into the audience are sure to be on full display as the metal band makes its return to Dallas.
