Originally posted by Platypus View PostSome quick research on Google suggests very few medical conditions that cause weight gain. The best known (although still very rare) is hyperthyroidism, and that's treatable.
Cushing's is another one although bizarrely it's more often brought on by obesity.
So, basically, fat is fat due to overeating in say all but one in 50,000 cases.
Edit: Hypo - underactive - sluggish metabolism
Hyper - overactive - speeded up metabolismComment

Ah, but no, those *******, those parasites, those puritans, those miserablists, those that want to force engineer social changes against the will of a subset of population, those that will never cease to be bansturbators once smoking has been made verboten, will it be sugar next, fast foods, fatty people, colourful drinks, those authoritarians that can't afford for their taxpayers funds to cease (won't someone think of their spawns private schooling...), those bastards have decreed, against all logic, that private members clubs are not exempt from the smoking ban.

Originally posted by hyperD View PostWell yes, you would have thought that. I mean a place dedicated to smoking, for people that want to smoke, privately, without "infecting" anyone else that was there against their will, that even staff knew and had the choice what they were getting in to. All reasonable, all good, all personal choice.
