Stuff I used to write - Part 1
4 years ago
Thought I should post something on here to fill the void between uploading content on here.
So years and years ago I was just like any other angsty young adult on the internet, and I left a few marks on some websites that I am either proud of, and others I'm not too overly fond of. But whatever, they're up there and I've all but moved on from a lot of it haha. One thing I didn't remember putting up on the Internet was a full on blog, which went nowhere because I never did anything in the way of promoting it, but it was more or less an outlet to vent a lot of my frustration in a semi-comedic ignorant manner a la Maddox style. These days, I put my energy into full time employment, gaming, and writing and commissioning art on here, so what I'm talking about today is pretty much a product of it's time... 11 years ago!
I'm not going to provide a link to it, because the second I post this I'll BALEET it off wordpress, I'm just posting it here and I'll provide annotations in red to... criticise my own work I guess?
Need advice on losing weight? You won’t find it here…No you won't, because I was FAT as well
A long while ago, Channel 4 decided it didn’t have anything worthy of airtime that night so it played this documentary called “Supersize Me”. Maybe they thought all the Chavs in Britain needed to be reminded simple things they commonly overlook, such as eating burgers every day makes you unhealthy, or babies need parents and not teenagers. I disavow this attempt at humour XD! Come on, as if anyone needs reminding that often…
So this is why I’m ranting about this ‘so called’ documentary. I mean anything can be called a documentary or an experiment. What I think I was objecting to the most was the usefulness of the data taken from this. I mean yeah eating supersize every day i don't think is the norm. I think supersized meals were considered a rare treat for Americans who I would speculate got a bonus from their boss one day and they got it when driving home one evening, for example.
- It’s something that has always pissed me off to apocolyptic proportions I think I meant the documentary...
- I am overweight and trying to lose weight, so I am already quite knowlegable about thisNo you weren't you fat bitch
So anyway – the supposed reason for him to conduct this experiment in the first place came around the time when two fat slags alleged they became obese after eating McDonalds food, were rightly laughed out of court and perhaps told to go on a diet and stop wasting their fucking time. Yeah I mean this should already tell you about the asinine nature for wanting to conduct this experiment in the first place, right? So instead of leaving it there, this douche steps in and claims much of the same criticism levelled against the tobacco companies can apply to fast food franchises whose products are both “physiologically addictive and physically harmful”.
Oh really? “Physiologically addictive” huh? It’s not like fucking nicotine you twat. If by that you mean “tasty” then yeah, I can see how some people would get addicted to said burgers, but there is nothing inside the burger that is altering the brain chemistry to make the user want it more.Actually that is the case. There's not specifically an active ingredient that gets you addicted, but the brain does this to itself. We all know about how the human species has evolved to the point where we can basically get food whenever we crave for it, that it's easy for us to overdo it and introduce problems like diabetes. The same can be said for gambling or drinking, it's all different routes to ultimately the same destination If they get to the point where they get fat from eating too much fast food, it is SELF INFLICTED and therefore not the restaurant’s fault. True. Furthermore, smoking is something that affects your health immediately because you’re essentially breathing in tar, nicotine, carbon monoxide, and a whole load of other crap. The calories, fats, salts, etc you get from eating a McDonalds burger are not only nothing compared to the damage you do to your lungs by smoking, but are also present in other food items which can be arranged into a balanced diet – rendering your tobacco comparison double and triple invalid. I honestly don't know why I wrote this XD
So yeah, the entire synopsis of the movie is essentially a healthy man deciding he’s going to conduct an experiment where he eats nothing but super-sized meals at Maccy D’s every day for a month and see what happens. Predictably enough, he gets fat and unhealthy. Fast forward 30 pounds later Spurlock gets some medical advice from a doctor and he tells him his liver is totally shagged out and he should stop what he is doing immediately to avoid permanent damage to his health. He decided to ignore his advice completely carry on with his shambles of an experiment. His liver is now beyond repair and he is now at risk of heart failure even though he has lost all the weight he gained during the experiment. I still have little sympathy for this lobotomite, like good for you dude. I'm just not so extreme if that makes sense.
Fast forward to today and I can safely say the movie has failed to make an impact on the country it was produced and published in, even though it is the 11th highest grossing movie of all time.
Eating is not hard to understand, so we don’t need you insulting our fucking intelligence. Everyone knows you’re gonna get fat if you eat tons of junk food and the ones that don’t die quicker so we don’t give a shit about them – boo bloody hoo. Primary school children already understand they need to eat healthily or they might end up being fat. My six-year-old niece practically snacks every single day on fruit, sometimes a little too much. I hope the grapes she likes aren’t getting her “physiologically addicted” to eating them. I think this bit was entirely made up
Oh that reminds me, what was your other motivation for making this movie considering I destroyed that other one a few million paragraphs back? To raise awareness of obesity in America? Oh yeah, because it’s not like you can throw a rock and hit a fat fuck over there, right? oh yeah this was a popular phase people went through at the time, where it was always people on the web shitting all over America for having fat people rofl Trust me, the only way awareness that movie is raising is of how flawed and retarded your documentries are. 11 years ago everyone, remember that, 11 years ago...
So tell you what Spurlock, here is my rant in three simple points so even species of sub-sentient intelligence can understand. cringe
1. Your film ‘Super Size Me’ is complete garbage; you achieved nothing except permanent damage to your health, but that’s probably for the better because we can forget about you much quicker. oof druss what an edgy low blow
2. It made no impact on your own country even though it is one of the highest grossing movies of all time, McDonalds is still open and selling sloppily made but delicious burgers, albeit without the option to supersize and more healthier alternatives (which I don’t know anyone to buy anyway). Maccys is kinda legit these days ngl, love the sausage egg mcmuffins, i usually just get two if I can I don't fuck with the hash browns. They're like deep fried fat triangles, easily the grodiest thing you can get there.
Fuck you. Luv ya too 20 years old Druss

Also I had no idea Supersize Me was anything more than something someone mentioned in passing and no one ever actually saw. shrug
