Shouldn't you be spending that money on a gym membership? Not being cruel here, but if some people would just find the discipline to run on the treadmill 40 minutes a day they'd look so much better, and won't have wasted 300 on a shirt that fits them like a strained tarp.

Agree with you, but if you would just go make more money you could too afford a few $300 shirts.

Because not everyone who's overweight wants to spend the time to look good if they have the money to look good. THINK, PLEASE.

Assuming you want to play the "rate a person game" its pretty clear:

Being in great shape rules, being in okay shape doean't matter, and being fat (or stupidly skinny) is bad. Everybody has personal flaws. Some people are lazy, some people are fat, some (like the op) are jackasses. We get over these faults. Not to mention style isn't measurred in how you do in the ******* Hot or Not test.

this is because some people are lazy, and it is easier to just diet or buy nice clothes than work out.
