honestly that's a compliment

@38 I've lived in the South my whole life, and it's somewhat rare to see morbidly obese people during your day-to-day routine. This is the exact stereotype that needs to stop.

The funny thing is, is America isn't the fattest country in the world anymore. It's Mexico!

Oh, get over yourself. Since when is your life effed because you're not fat?

Hey...we're not all fat

I think a lot of those outside of the States are envious. Myself included! Though I would never assume stereotypes mean anything, and I definitely wouldn't say anything negative about a country that is not my own, there is a lot of envy. I know even my family fantasizes about "the American Dream" so maybe those who constantly belittle are just in denial that they don't live there? A more simple and more likely conclusion is that they're just assholes and should be ignored OP!

Don't worry this actually happens to a lot of us, myself included-it is a bit funny in the end. X3 You could always take it as a compliment, though haha~

Sorry for all the butthurt 'muricans, but it's not a stereotype, it's statistics...

I don't really understand how that's bad, I mean, yeah, stereotyping Americans as fat sucks, but it's more like a compliment to you

I'm an American living in France and the same thing happens to me. It's been a year now and I can't even count how many times someone has said something along those lines.
