the Forum makes fun of and passes judgment on average guys wearing square-toed shoes and pleated pants, so I don't see why we can't similarly make fun of Forumites who are out of shape.

Agree with the OP. Lots of money being spent by people who still look awful.

These people are obviously vain, as evidenced by the amount of time/money/concern they spend on their clothing. I can't understand why that vanity is not also expressed in concern for their physique.
because it's easier to spend money then exercise

Of course, an attractive person, which generally assumes an attractive body, will look better in anything than an unattractive person wearing the most exquisite clothes. As for myself, I am naturally very skinny. I would probably benefit from a bit more muscle to look better, but at the end of the day, I am content with being this way, it is convenient since it requires little or no work, and when I work out I generally prefer cardio over lifting/gym training anyway. To each their own, and I think most of us are aware of our physical shortcomings. To which extent members here compensate with dress is a negative take on it if you ask me.
