I should really be going back to work, but I just have to-- HAVE TO-- share the following gem of an article with y'all:
OH NOES, YOU GUYS. AMERICANS ARE GETTING TOO FAT TO JOIN THE MILITARY AND FIGHT SENSELESS WARS. WHICH SURELY MEANS THAT THE TERRORISTS ARE GOING TO WIN! NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! I mean, I could get upset at the uncritical fatphobia here, and the insensitive picture of the headless fatty torso with which the BBC oh-so-imaginatively chose to adorn the article, but seriously: the whole story's too ludicrous for sustained rage.
In conclusion: LOL.
STOP THE WAR IN AFGHANISTAN. GET TOO FAT TO FIGHT.
