Supersize Me

Last night as I was getting ready to turn off the TV and go to bed, I saw that the “Supersize Me” movie was coming on. I watched for a few minutes and quickly decided that I could do without 2 hours of sleep.
It wasn’t really a good movie. It wasn’t really a movie. Basically, a guy decides to live on McDonald’s food (3 meals a day) for 30 days. He had 3 doctors checking him out along the way, measuring his progress through the month.
In the end, he gained about 20 pounds and went from very healthy to extremely unhealthy. Sorry I spoiled that for you. (In my defense, who would expect anything different from somebody who eats fast food for 30 days straight?)
I’m glad I saw it. It was eye opening, that’s for sure. I may never eat at McDonald’s again…but those fries are so, so good.

The fries may be good, but they don’t decompose …

I propose that you bar Gaines from the site for such a horrible comment. It caused me great consternation.

Hey man, you can watch the movie and see for yourself. (Okay, so it’s actually on the DVD special features.) They left those fries out for TEN WEEKS and almost no sign of decomposition was observed.
(Shudder)
