Supersize Me Synopsis:
Why are Americans so fat? Find out in Super Size Me, a tongue in-cheek - and burger in hand -- look at the legal, financial and physical costs of America's hunger for fast food.

Ominously, 37% of American children and adolescents are carrying too much fat and 2 out of every three adults are overweight or obese. Is it our fault for lacking self-control, or are the fast-food corporations to blame?

Filmmaker Morgan Spurlock hit the road and interviewed experts in 20 U.S. cities, including Houston, the "Fattest City" in America. From Surgeon Generals to gym teachers, cooks to kids, lawmakers to legislators, these authorities shared their research, opinions and "gut feelings" on our ever-expanding girth.

During the journey, Spurlock also put his own body on the line, living on nothing but McDonald's for an entire month with three simple rules:

1) No options: he could only eat what was available over the counter (water included!)
2) No supersizing unless offered
3) No excuses: he had to eat every item on the menu at least once

It all adds up to a fat food bill, harrowing visits to the doctor, and compelling viewing for anyone who's ever wondered if man could live on fast food alone.

The film explores the horror of school lunch programs, declining health and physical education classes, food addictions and the extreme measures people take to lose weight and regain their health.

Super Size Me is a satirical jab in the stomach, overstuffed with fat and facts about the billion-dollar industry besieged by doctors, lawyers and nutritionists alike. "Would you like fries with that?" will never sound the same!

During my year in Japan there was at least one month when most of the food i ate was fast food - be it McDonalds, MOS or Freshness Burger]Spurlock On The Daily Show Clip (Realplayer)[/url]
(notice how he throws in a mention of Pavlovs` dog in order to appear more cerebral)

..that said i plan to watch it when i get the chance

Fast Food Nation by Eric Schlosser was an interesting read.

[Crambo]

The only reason he vomits is because of the sheer volume of food he consumes and the large amount of stress his stomach is put under, nothing to do with the content.

[jingai]

While the food he eats is disgusting and it's gross to watch him gorge himself on supersized crap, the film is funny and surprisingly entertaining. You really want to see how it turns out- will he survive, will his health recover? Definitely check out the DVD and give to your fast-food loving friends.

McDonald's is cool and this film is pompous yuppie BULLSHIT.

I like this guy's attitude

Burger Fan Wolfs Down 20,000th Big Mac




By The Associated Press

FOND DU LAC, Wis. - Chalk up another meaty milestone for Don Gorske. The Fond du Lac man downed his 20,000th Big Mac sandwich Monday, while surrounded by spectators at a local McDonald's restaurant.



He already had made the "Guinness World Records" book for eating a record number of Big Macs before he hit number 19,000 in March 2003.


He has been eating the fast food sandwiches since 1972 at a rate of at least one a day, and said he has eaten a Big Mac from every state in the union.

Still, the 6-foot Gorske has maintained his weight at about 170 pounds.

People who think they're better than Big Mac eaters are bourgeois cunts. It's all a part of this goody-goody pc crap I always see in gaijin newbies fresh from college. They think they're smart but they can't see that their way of thinking is as generic as the Big Mac I'm enjoying. But what's really sad are gaijin who've been here a long time and still maintain the same Western suburban codes. People are fucking dullards. They won't listen to Three 6 Mafia. These little newbie cunts listening to Ani Difranco passing judgements on me cause him talking with my mouth full of two all beef patties special sauce lettuce cheese pickles onions on a sesame seed bun. And even though they're ten times as racist as me, which is proven when they go running back to white suburbia, they get all fucking bothered over a couple slurs not at all taking into consideration that I have spent the better part of a decade living overseas. They ain't travelled like me and they sure as fuck ain't read like me so they can take their bougeois anti McDonalds BULLSHIT and shove it up their soon to be soccermom cunts. Now, if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go fry some bacon.

So this is all about class warfare for you? All this time I was thinking you were a right-wing type of guy, but you're really just a disguised Marxist! How cute!

I think the powers that be should change AK title from "Sparkling Invective" to "Mc Proletarian".

On a side note, your anti anti mc donalds vent is pretty tired in its self. I am pretty much anti mc D due to their business practices, unfortunatly during university i actualy worked in one for a few weeks. But I could care less if people liked it or not.

Whats with you AK these days, it seems something has got your back up. Stay off internet fourms for a while... they tend to rot your brain banana.


Mc Proletarian this is the funniest thing ever.

Good point, but where does that leave me? It's a Gen X conundrum.

Stay off internet fourms for a while... they tend to rot your brain banana.

Will do, Necro. Thanks for the concern. For the last couple weeks I've been getting a lot of love, but just recently I've taken a popularity nose dive. I really like the term 'brain banana' btw. Did you come up with that yourself?

Noooooooooo. The last thing this forum needs is the absence of AK.

But we like you to be you and not some mere shaddow of your greatness.

Well Hells Bells Gomi, I think for a 1,500+ poster I've maintained a pretty damn good track record of quality posts. You know Choco Ball Mukai really was arrested. It's Japan related and fit for these forums. I've always been committed to good links, decent images and most importantly, I try to present well-written posts with enough spice and humour to keep people interested in hitting the FG boards.

It seems since I havnt been poisting the high volume crap i used to post, others are kinda filling in the void.

Who is the person everybody is against these days?

[Big Booger]

The funny thing is you all "try" to be popular on here LMAO.. that is cracking me up. Reminds me of the 3rd grade, when Jenny Green tried to bust my balls for making fun of her.. She lost her popularity after I made up the Jenny Green mantra:

"The grass is always greener, in Jenny Green's pants"

Enjoy the forums and post whatever you want as long as it doesn't break the rules..

Who cares what others think? I don't.

[Taro Toporific]

...Who is the person everybody is against these days?

Mark Deviling of course.

Good question. Nobody's been obnoxious these days. Kudos go to the mods, right?? (wink, wink; nudge, nudge)

The mods here are idle arses compared to the mods under my thumb.

Bastard, I was always secretly in love with Jenny...

[Big Booger]

Jenny was a sweetie.. But she sure could be a beast if messed with.
