We know chronically high levels of cortisol lead to storage of abdominal fat. If you led a perpetually risky life where you had to maintain a high level of vigilance and were in constant fear of being caught would you be more likely to have a fat belly than your law-abiding virtuous twin who ate the exact same diet that you did?

I have always taken chances I don't really need to just for the thrill (nothing terrible, don't worry) and sometimes have a hard time talking myself down, even when there is nothing to be gained beyond proving to myself that I can do it. Something in my system likes risk for it's own sake and always has. Maybe it is as simple as a chemical addiction to whatever cascade happens when your heart quickens. Is there any evolutionary advantage for this? Or does the cautious, careful person always win in the end. In any case, I have no desire to get a fat belly, so I am now trying to consciously notice when I get amped up this way, and just pause and take a few deep breaths.

By the way, the type of risk that appeals to me is never random, like Russian roulette, but always something that appears to rely on my quick reflexes or nimble mind. Over time this just gets reinforced with continued positive results, so it is very hard to break the mindset. Being vain, I began worrying that this might have very undesirable physical effects like the cortisol-fat-storage one, which would hopefully be enough for me to change my ways...

By the way, I am intentionally being vague because I don't know that this is truly anonymous...someone who knew me and happened upon this site would surely recognize me from my posts.

Any thoughts?

Definitely.

I think this has to be one of the dumbest questions I've ever seen.

Definitely not!

To be an adulterer, either you had to get married, (good luck fatties on that one), or you have to screw married women, (ditto). Gamblers often have to chose between food and paying vig, so most aren't fat. Guys who are really heavy have trouble speeding, because, all else being equal, their cars need that much extra horsepower to accelerate the added mass from their lard butts, and besides, what self respecting car dealer would sell a Porsche 911 or such to a fattie, even if he was paying cash? Your name is on that sticker above the rear license plate; talk about bad word-of mouth! Fat guys are also terrible liars, meaning they don't do it well. The sweat on the third chin is a dead giveaway.

Most adulterers, gamblers, speeders, and chronic liars have 8% body fat, no more, no less. This admittedly small demographic also includes the majority of guys who fuck farm animals, other than poultry.

more likely... I mean most fatties are ignorant or have trouble understanding that being 'fat' can be unhealthy and don't have the will power to change or do anything about it either. Its like a criminal who knows what they're doing is wrong but does it anyway or is just too stupid to understand.

As strange as it may sound to many, this is actually a fairly intelligent question. A shame that PF had to go berzerk today, and get himself banned..

Still, for the benefit of the board, I'll provide a short response:

Essentially, yes there is an evolutionary advantage to this. In nature, you would have many more opportunities to use your quick reflexes, whereas in the modern world, those opportunities are rare.

Notice the bold and underlined type, (my edits), in paleofreak187`s last post from this closed thread, https://terb.cc/vbulletin/showthread.php?405672-10-reasons-why-fat-people-suck Keep in mind that he claimed to have 8% body fat in another post.

10 reasons why fat people suck

" 1.Fat people like to think they are aren`t fat.

Think about it. when was the last time you saw a tub of guts stumbling along knocking things over with their hips(Male of female) astonished that they are destroying a small mexican resturant. Or the last time you saw a fattie trying to buy clothes that normal humans wear, then feel bad that they don`t fit and then eat a walrus to feel good again? It`s not because we are trying to make your children cry, it`s because after eating a garden salad a week ago we think we`re aneorexically thin and ambedextrous.

2.Fat people are disgusting to look at.

the last time you were at a beach, I bet you saw a fat thing that looks like is got lost from it`s pod start walking around looking for seafood. with rolls of fat sloshing like the shoreline. People aren`t ment to look like lava-lamps with legs. It`s offensive.

3.Fat people are unfuckable.

When was the last time you thought about fucking Camryn Manhime or sitting on Rush limbaugh`s face? that`s right only once: after I asked you, and it was horrible wasn`t it.

4.Fat people smell bad.

As a fat man I personally know, but you may not, that fat asses have many more cracks and crevaces and since they all can`t be reached many go unattended. hence Fat man stink. Fat girl stink isn`t as bad because they spend more time in the tub getting to know the faucet because it`s the only thing that that will be able to stimulate their massive vaginas.

5.Fat people are lightweights.

I know what you`re thinking: "thAT DoEs`Nt maKe sEnSe LOL1111!" Actually if you thought that you`re probabally a sack of living butter yourself. It means fat people can`t hold their liquor. Think of the last time you went to a bar, it was the biggest fattest scariest looking freak that was tanked after a sip of a cheap german draft. College guys know it from frat parties that fat guys are candyasses and are the loudest most annoying people because cause they get drunk so fast from literally smelling alcohol

6.Fat people are unisexually.

This one goes with how fatasses are unfuckable, Fat guys have tiny cocks and fat women have massive vaginals. Not vaginas, Vaginals, that`s how big they are.

7.Fat people aren`t tough.(Some other guy brought this up)

Being tought takes disciple, to be tough you have to say "no" to yourself, If a fatass can`t say "no" to a krispy creme treat, how are they going to stop a horde a zombies?

8.Fat people are always eating.

Normal humans can eat food and not get fat because the human body is able to process food that`s eaten if it`s being burned off or consumed in fair amounts. The human body can`t handle all the biscut dough that fat people eat. In order to get fat, Lardasses have to consume several pounds of food in order to feed the mexican families living in their bellies.

9.Fat People are lazy.

Because it`s hard to move so much meat, and cause we suck. And you know...

10.Fat people can`t think of ten ideas without eating a cornbeef sandwich.

It`s true and it needs mustard, but I`m too lazy to get it.

OK so now you know why we suck so bad, no go forth and laugh at us while watching us ordering at del taco."

So, either he was plagiarizing Larry the Cable Guy, or he inadvertently outed himself as one of the fatties he despises so much. It puts most of his posts in a very different light.

He and I had some rational discussions on here.... He conceded points on which he was wrong... On balance, that's not a terrible track record...
