A reason not to be fat Fats love to remind us that we will all someday die, implying or saying staying healthy is a waste of time.  True we will all die.  Some of at age 85 after having pneumonia for a month, others at age 55 after 10 years of pain and limited mobility, but we will all die.  Unless one dies out in the wilderness and is eaten by vultures or dies in an explosion or on a sinking ship, never to be found or use your imagination, somebody has to deal with a dead body. A reason not to be fat: be considerate to whoever has to handle your dead body.
