Mu Zeta posted:Agreed Mcdonald's is great if you need 7,000 calories a day because you're an elite athlete. Everyone loves to emulate top athletes, the campaign would be really successful. If you're an active person a McDonalds after a workout/performance is genuinely good and healthy for you, and preferable to most "healthy" foods at those times. Even a Coke is good for you when the body is ready for an insulin surge to snap it into recovery mode.

My favorite part of Supersize Me was how he threw up on the first day after eating one burger and fries. Something is wrong with you if you can't eat one burger.

I remember McDonald's (at in least in the UK) had that "It's what I eat, it's what I do" ad campaign for a while a few years ago which focused on athletes and being active.

McDonalds is fine. I don't eat there but it's not fair to poo poo on people for eating there. Life is hard and you can't loving smoke anywhere any more. Let people with no hope eat garbage in peace.

veni veni veni posted:McDonalds isn't good but I like it once in a while. It's tasted the same my whole life so I guess it's comfort food. Their fries are good. If I eat it more than once in a month I won't want to eat it again for a long time. Things burger King does well: that long chicken sandwich thing, whoppers, they have coupons that don't actually suck and I think they have the best basic double cheeseburger of the 3. That's about it but I've pretty much never tried any of their gimmick stuff like the... I don't even remember, Mac and cheese stuffed cheetos or something? They mostly look like things that would be parodies of fast food in a GTA game

To be fair, it was a double quarter pounder with cheese, their largest burger, and he was a thin guy used to an extremely healthy diet. That's gonna shock the system.

doverhog posted:I saw Super Size Me but don't remember it much, did he just consume a shitton of calories while not using them for anything? That is bad for you whether it's MC Donald or any other type of food. Yup, and there's a reply documentary, Fat Head, that demonstrates that if you stay within daily recommended caloric limits and do regular exercise, it's no more unhealthy than any other food, and he ends up actually losing 12lbs.

If you don't vaccinate your child, and your child dies of a preventable diseases or gives it to someone else, then you absolutely are responsible for those deaths and should be held accountable. At this point the scientific consensus is so loving clear that ignorance is no excuse. And while I am sad for your child and think it's a drat tragedy, I don't have a lot of sympathy for you and how you deal with your guilt is not my problem.

Smoking should be illegal within 50 feet of a building. 200 feet if it's below 0. Also no vaccinating your kids should be met with execution. Same for people that circumcise their children

hard counter posted:i don't think an idea this radical for reducing corruption would ultimately produce a better system tbh, largely because these days government systems are so complex that they require significant expertise to successfully navigate Even though I really don't like admitting this, I feel like one of the virtually unavoidable problems with government and other powerful institutions (like financial institutions, etc) is that anyone who gains the expertise necessary to navigate said systems will also almost always gain bias in favor of the interests of the industry/government in question (which also usually coincide with the interests of the upper/upper-middle class). If someone is very knowledgeable about finance, they are likely to have a significant portion of their social life consist of other people of similar status and profession (not to mention the fact that most people with those skills/experience can easily thrive in our current system). But at the same time that knowledge is pretty much necessary and it would be a bad idea to have some random person run a bank. Fortunately there are a non-zero number of people who gain this kind of expertise and also realize the problems inherent to the industry/organization in question, but I think those people will always be a tiny minority.

Anyone who hears "World War 2" or "Syria" or something and feels the need to start yelling about how evil the US/UK/etc is is a drooling idiot. There are no good guys in wars but there are worse guys, and sitting around shrugging at mass murderers is criminal. Also Russia manages to kill 4-5x as many civilians per syrian bombing as the US per SORH. Al-Assad manages to outdo Bush even during the height of the Iraq war and Gitmo according to most fatality and torture estimates. Again, no good guys but many worse guys, idiots. Some douchebag posted a meme comparing Waco to Al-Assad today on facebook, with Assad coming off as the good guy. Never mind that Assad has, per capita, managed about 19 Wacos/day since the war that he started began. Edgar Allen Ho has a new favorite as of 21:26 on Apr 22, 2017 |

Baronjutter posted:People who grow up in deep car-centric suburbia or anywhere you are totally dependant on your parents for transportation until you hit 16 come out socially stunted and weird like an indoor cat. Generally helpless after 16+ years of their parents having to arrange their entire lives and ferry them everywhere and unable to handle people or ideas outside of what ever narrow little class/race segregated suburbia they grew up in. You can gently caress a kid up just as bad even if you live somewhere "walkable" but you're a paranoid helicopter parent. I kind of noticed this first hand after growing up in TN and moving to NYC to go to college. It took me a full year to get to the point where I could do stuff as basic as navigate through the city using the subway (though admittedly this was partly due to me not forcing myself to try for a long time). A bunch of people I knew who came from less urban areas ended up dropping out. I had this one roommate freshman year who literally went insane and starting photo-shopping bomb explosions over an image of Washington Square Park...in retrospect I probably should have reported that. He ended up transferring to a more "normal" campus college and quickly recovered in the more comfortable environment. edit: All this being said, it kind of goes both ways in a sense; a lot of the kids I knew who grew up in NYC were very ignorant about what the rest of the country was like and seemed to view stuff like "having a driver license as a teenager" as this crazy unusual thing.
