"Can you believe these things go up as high as they do nowadays? I mean really, who needs a scale that goes to 300 pounds? Do people actually weigh that much?"

Should have rubbed the salt into the wound, OP.

Some of my bodybuilder friends on the tall side are in the 250+ lbs category

But that's rare

My dad is 5'10 and around 240, but he is BUILT. Seriously. He's owned two gyms, body builds, and dabbled in personal training. He's a beast.

Hahaha. Mine is so old it only goes up to 200. I am not sure how accurate it is but I set it up so it goes 5 lbs over because my BF said it was off by a few pounds.

She probably had to hold herself back from smashing that oppressive scale on the floor

It can't be this easy can it?

  1. Buy scales

  2. Go to fattest cashier to buy them.

  3. Return them, finding the fattest customer service advisor.

  4. Repeat.

You need a good story when you return it.

"Yeah, I don't think this thing is right. It says I'm 120.4 but I'm only 119.5 on my old scale and I know that one is accurate. Maybe it's because this one goes up so high. 250? That's crazy! That's more than TWO of me! Who would anyone even need a scale that goes that high?"

Then stand back so you don't get any butter tears on you.

Yeah, and some duct tape and a broom. Then moan about your date plans being cancelled when you return it all.

How are frozen veggies? I always worry that they'll come out awful.

Internally I am the most judgy person you can find when it comes to other people's carts. The extent of processed foods I have are canned veggies and even then I avoid a lot of them because they put sugar in. The most disgusted I ever was was when I wandered into the very back corner of my local Kaufland (german Walmart basically) and found something called Marshmallow fluff. The packaging said it was great to put on your bread and your kids should totally have it. It's basically 99% sugar and well...foamy? I didn't buy it but not even 15 minutes later at the meat section I saw this couple that consisted of a good looking dude with an aspiring ham. I looked at their cart and snickered after I saw the fluff amongst the healthy food. I honestly wanted to just walk up to the cart and throw that stuff away.

I love unintentional shitlording.

My husband has an uncle, aunt and a few cousins who live down the road from us and have an annoying habit of just walking into our house without ringing the doorbell. The uncle (not fat but still an asshole) helped us with the downpayment on the house three years ago.. we've paid him back with fucking interest but he still feels like he owns the house does this the most but his fat wife and kids are almost as bad. If the front door is locked they'll just come through the garage. On Saturday morning last week I'd finished my fitnessblender HIIT workout and was just walking from my bedroom to the bathroom for my shower completely naked and bumped into the auntie and one of the cousins in the hall. They looked shocked and appalled that I was walking around my own house without any clothes on haha. They offered no apology. I wasn't about to run and grab a robe as if I'd done anything wrong and make it less awkward for them so I just acted totally normal, asked them what they needed etc. They kept looking at my stomach and then quickly down at their hooves and the back to my body. the jealousy was palpable. Made my fucking day..

Jesus christ. You need to sit them down and talk to them. THIS IS NOT APPROPRIATE. I had to tell my own mother it was not okay to just walk into our house. I asked her to please call before or at least ring the bell. Even if it is family they need to know the boundaries and what is socially acceptable.

Tell them that from now on, they need to ring the bell or give you a call if they want to come over as you might be naked or have important clients over or some other reason why you might not want to be bothered. If it persists get a big dog that that is trained to hate strangers.

This is the type of thing you nip in the bud the FIRST time it happens.

"How'd you get in?"

"Oh I just let myself in"

"Well this is a private residence and you need to knock and wait for someone to answer. I could have been naked or you could have gotten shot maybe both."

Which reminds me, I need a new scale.

My scale is a Whale Watchers scale, which has this "super cool feature" where it doesn't tell you if you gained something like 3 pounds. I didn't notice it when I bought it, it was just cheap.

The only way that I can get my accurate weight is to pick up my 5-pound dumbbells, step on the scale, drop the dumbbells, and get on again.

I fear this will get worse with time. I mean, honestly? A scale is supposed to tell you what you fucking weigh.

NB those bf% scales don't usually measure BF, they just estimate it based on weight afaik.

Are the body fat measurements on those types of scales accurate? I've always wondered. I do need to buy a scale anyway.

I need to buy one! Some big girl who uses my apartment gym maxed ours out and broke it. I totally know it was her.
