You've obviously never seen a photo of Kunk...Then you would understand.

You're just jealous we can still mingle with those hot 12 y/o girls.

Sizes vary and there are some very slim people but I doubt we're that removed from the average.

I prefer the term obesity-challenged.

However though, a thin pancake would be a crepe.

I wish i was too lazy to be big. I have to put effort into staying 32" W 39" C. I'm 20 at the moment so it's only going to get worse!

Being thin is a curse, you know. Finding clothes that fit takes way too much work when designers/manufacturers pretend your size doesn't exist.

Yeah, I felt a bit small. It's ok, Like I said, I've gotten past my plateau stage and am gaining again.

I got two words for you man. Whale balls. They contain the miracle of life.
