Mind explaining the connection to the picture I posted? Because I truthfully don't understand.

I think what he's suggesting is either TV ruined men.

OR

Men like either of those pictured don't really exist in any other world than that of TV.

The standards for what can be shown on TV has lowered, as far as clean-cut conforming "every"-men are concerned. It's still basically apples and oranges though, showing a film star and a musician.

Musicians are always on the fringe, people thought Elvis was a devil-spawn because he moved his hips too much who was going to fill kids' heads with commie sex-propaganda; now he's every conservative woman's favourite bean-flicking fodder.

Who's fat?



Besides, Colin Pillinger (from a shed somewhere in Bristol) worked with the ESA and sent a Rover to Mars in 2003. Sure all Beagle 2 did was "land" and no more but what do you expect from the Westcountry? :P

I'm a little over the average at 150. At 6' 2", my problem is gaining weight. It's almost impossible for me unless I eat every hour.

Speaking as someone who just worked off 25 kilos, having a hard time gaining weight is not the worst thing in the world.

Anyway, correct me if I'm wrong, but you haven't entered your twenties yet right? That's when a lot of people start exploding in weight.

Anyway, back to pics...ummmm....
