Do you think no one cooks or something?

Edit. Apparently cooking is bad if you're American.

    No, I live in an extremely shitty world where a majority of people are selfish idiots who only focus on their own bellies.

    But I am Finnish and although (I find the country much more problematic than most would assume โ€” vis-a-vis the population's self-imposed authoritarianism), our food regulation isn't too shabby.

    are you buying the meat from a butcher that only sources from local farmers? If you can afford that, yeah it's probably on par with what Euros can buy in a grocery store. If you can't afford that, then it doesn't really matter if you're the one cooking it or not, the meat is gonna be low quality.

    Most American cities no longer have local butchers, it's not like Europe. Many are reliant on bigbox stores for their base necessities especially in rural areas. So it's not even a class issue, it's an accessibility issue. It's the reason why companies started rolling out subscriptions like Butcher Box. You'd never see that sort of thing take off in Europe.

    We are in the midst of a national obesity crisis, and Americans are getting heavier. Today, about 65% of adults and 15% of children and adolescents in the US are overweight or obese.

    Two thirds of adults are obese. that's horrifying.

    I would agree, but she can still walk herself to where she needs to go. Can yours?

    So that's a "no my mom doesn't walk anymore"?

    Two thirds of adults. Obese.

    That's facts you can't deny nor pretend like the US is just one among many and not worse-off than say, my country? ;D

    Seems like you're having a little temper-tantrum against me, spamming one word replies in several threads because of how angry a simple comment about you not even bothering to google the thing youre supposedly debating made you.

    Hahaha

    You're here literally only because you can't let go, because I made you slightly ashamed of your ignorance. So now you're trying to get revenge by showing everyone that you definitely are angry, childish and irrational.

    Way to own me!

    Again, you're literally acting like a toddler for everyone to see, and you think the joke is on me. I've had almost a bottle of wine and had to take 1200mg of ibuprofen because of how hard you're making my sides hurt with your tantrum. :DD

    Aww, did you get a little tantrum because I hit the nail on the head with how you didn't even google "neurodevelopmental disorder" despite being obsessed with replying to me? :(

    You don't even understand the basic terminology of the subject you're trying to argue, so you're having this childish tantrum in public if I might remind you.

    Imagine acting like that irl. You have metaphorically torn your hair, cried, and now you're screaming and kicking while laying on the floor yelling what you think are bad things.

    And you call me hilarious.

    It's fun to see how your replies get shorter and shorter. Getting a bit fatigued at replying? But you can't end. Not even when you're making a clown of yourself, because you're still deluding yourself that somehow "getting the last word" will mean you "win".

    Well I can tell you that none of that is happening. You're not gonna get the last reply, because I'll be replying. But unlike you, I can actually follow the rules instead of spamming childish insults. Secondly, because I've gone months deep into a thread to wear people like you out and I always win. Thirdly, becuase there's no "winning" in a fight. And if you think that's contradicting the previous sentence, it isn't. I don't consider myself "a winner" of the argument in any way, no, that's just discussion. I consider myself a winner of the test of endurance when I get you to stop deluding yourself.

    Because for me, it's definitely discussing neurodevelopmental disorders, but you can't even discuss, let alone discuss a highly complicated medical subject. So why did you pretend you can?

    Bots will have stored all your spam as well, so even if you delete it, it's not gone. You've permanently marked yourself as being this childish online.

    I really hope for your sake that you actually are a child.

    That would explain why you can't even spend a few minutes on Wikipedia reading up on neurodevelopmental disorders.

    quote of the day, buddy.

    So why are you in this thread? Is it to "own" me or to discuss the prevalence of neurodevelopmental disorders?

    I myself wouldn't use such material, but using your own words, perhaps:

    Why won't you discuss the prevalence of neurodevelopmental disorders? Is it because you don't know what one is? Then why pretend you did?
