I’m not in shape at all in any way and yet due to the plague of obesity I’m seen as some sort of elite athlete at work because I do things like go on 10 mile hikes with no prior training and climb up (really small) mountains.

Basically anything any non-disabled human should…just be able to do is now some remarkable feat.

I’ve seen also an increasing number of pieces lately where people just take obesity as something handed down by providence, completely unchangeable. I can’t understand this at all especially with how harmful it is and how miserable it makes one (what I care about the most personally).

But yes, I am an elite athlete because I can walk to my damn car without passing out.

In the near future, our superheroes will be those who can merely stand up unassisted.
