That being fat is the result of bad life choices

Sometimes. In fact usually. I used to be a lard ass. Turns out, I had a thyroid condition, and after getting on medication nearly a hundred pounds melted off.

I don't believe you.

There's no way you lost 100 lbs by just adding medicine to your diet.

I'm 100% certain you are lying.

The American Thyroid Association states that thyroid associated weight gain is usually no more than 5-10 lbs. See here

I'd take it further and say that politics is circular. Go left or right far enough and you and up in the same place, just under different names.

What is the horseshoe theory?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horseshoe_theory

"The horseshoe theory in political science asserts that rather than the far left and the far right being at opposite and opposing ends of a linearpolitical continuum, they in fact closely resemble one another, much like the ends of a horseshoe."

Never heard of it named that and I've been a subscriber to this belief for as long as I can remember. What really gets me though is that the far left (in the UK at least) seem to get away with their histrionics much more easily than the far right due to political correctness.

Hey Slomo it's me again. Have you ever met a camp survivor and seen their serial tattoo? Or heard any of the nazis who have confessed to their roles in the holocaust?

I get it you hate Jews and are pro nazi. But your denial of the holocaust (the systematic execution of 12M not just JEWS) is stealing the glory of one of the nazi regimes greatest achievements.

I disagree what they did. But to kill 12M without losing a man is impressive in its own right.

I would love for you to say that to Erik Lehnsherr.

Also, that pretty much doesn't count based on the original question.

Came here to say this. I'm a socialist, queer, California, tree-hugging, dirt worshiper, who regularly donates to the ACLU and Planned Parenthood. I have conservative friends who whine about gun rights, welfare (not the corporate kind), and think Kim Davis is probably just a little bit outta line. We're all cool.... but say I'm an atheist and all of a sudden I'm an amoral devil worshiper.

I've lost friends when they found out. Their immediate reaction was, "But what keeps you from just killing and raping people?", which my former friends didn't seem to realize implied that they want to kill and rape people.

I believe in the christian God and have no problem with other people not.

What I do have a problem with is people (as in militant atheists) that refute the very existence of Jesus, what with the "raptor Jesus" or "imaginary friend" jokes, because they're being willfully ignorant of history and hence we all suffer a future of repeating mistakes.

I mean, obviously they do. Just that they're overpriced and focus on usability and quality over getting technology to the market rapidly.

They do. However they are wildly overpriced.

Not controversial enough. Try this on for size:

I have a genius IQ.

The Dukes of Hazzard is awesome.

(Alternatively, "The Dukes of Hazzard is racist" works too!)

My car has a higher MPG than yours.

Hitler wasn't all bad.
