i'm not a nutritionist but i've always been skinny, and the way i look at food is you have four different uses for them...energy (carbs), rebuilding your body (protein), cleaning your body (fiber), and protecting your body (vitamins). i just cook one of each for dinner every night....then i can drink, smoke, screw, whatever and i still feel/look healthy
THIS.
if you look at american history, a major contributing factor to the downfall of native american tribes was their over reliance on corn. they didn't have enough nutrition to fight off smallpox and their dental health drastically changed.
it's a ty crop, but it's convenient. as long as the US subsidizes corn farmers, we'll continuously have a diet because corn syrup makes you hungry. it doesn't fill you up.
Ah yes, argue something that is subjective.
Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.The weather in san antonio sucks
Btw, unless you're living in San Diego, you can gfy.
Corn is life, son.
I don't live in SA anymore, but from my experiences, It's not the so much the heat but the humidity which retains the heat. It can get up to like 90% humidity for long stretches. And the clay dirt surfaces for yards don't help as that crap retains the heat even more. Plus the trees are like bushes and provide next to none shade. Your thankful when you neighbor has a Pecan or Oak tree in their yard and blocks out the sun for a few hours.
Not true. There was a period of time in China where Fat was considered Beautiful.
tell me why are some people considered hard gainers ? you all ever heard of ectomorphs, mesomorphs and endomorphs?
Yes... bushes.
Spurstalk G2G?
BTW, not sure what this was supposed to convey. Big pizza? Dude living in the 90s?
Yes... bushes.
Compare to Atlanta and even Dallas, those are bushes. But below is what most suburbs and housing areas look like in SA. Places close to the River and Northwest part of SA have a lot of trees. Elsewhere, not so much.
I'd like to know just what made Barkley single out San Antonio
Wait, what are you even trying to compare? The height of the trees or the density of the trees?Compare to Atlanta and even Dallas, those are bushes. But below is what most suburbs and housing areas look like in SA. Places close to the River and Northwest part of SA have a lot of trees. Elsewhere, not so much.
Most suburban tract housing neighborhoods in the US look like that picture. Especially if they're relatively new.
Btw, this is Dallas. City of Tall 'Non-Bush looking' Trees according to you.
Dallas suburban tract housing:
Now, back to SA.

I live in Atlanta, and even the Suburbs have trees and big ones. I can run in my neighbor mid-summer and probably a mile of my 4 mile run is in the sun if that.
San Antonio in the North/Northeast is just plains with a few mesquite trees. West/Southwest is Hill country or clay surface with next to none trees. SA river runs from Northwest to South East SA. That is where you have the most trees.
Dallas has trees every where. In the suburbs they have pine trees. SA biggest trees are Oak and Pecan and they mostly can be found close to the River. Elsewhere is most just mesquite trees with a few Oak and Pecan trees. That is why South Texas is know for its BBQ because its mesquite heaven down there.
haha. u can get the biggest pizza in texas at big lous pizza in san antonio
and the biggest tacos in texas at rolandos super tacos

Yeah, quite the shock when I was in New Zealand a couple of years ago and literally the only fat people were the American and British tourists. It seemed like a salad was a central part of every dinner plate I ever got there, and a real salad with lots of nice veggies, not some leafs of lettuce, a ton of bacon and a mound of ranch like salad is in the US. Plus they bring you a big carafe of water everywhere before you order, which is a practice that seems like it's dying out in the US. Here you order water instead of empty-calorie Cokes or Budeweisers and the waiter thinks you're cheap or something.
being fat is cool
Atlanta is very unique with regards to its tree canopy, however, we're not discussing Atlanta.
Jesus christ... what?San Antonio in the North/Northeast is just plains with a few mesquite trees. West/Southwest is Hill country or clay surface with next to none trees. SA river runs from Northwest to South East SA. That is where you have the most trees.
As you can see, the San Antonio metro area is home to four different vegetational areas.
And then there's this:
S.A. tree canopy ranks No. 1 in the nation
San Antonio has the most extensive tree cover of any major U.S. city. Even with its semi-arid climate, San Antonio's tree canopy of 38 percent ranks first among the nation's 50 largest cities.
Notice two are PRAIRiES. Prairies usually mean they don't have too many trees. They are in the Northeast and Soutwest areas of SA like I said.Atlanta is very unique with regards to its tree canopy, however, we're not discussing Atlanta.

Point being, you are making fun of Rascal of not wanting to go outside in 90 degree weather. I honestly don't believe you ever been in SA in the summer. Rascal could every well live in one of the areas that don't have many trees. And when SA is know to have 100 degree weather for 80-90% of the summer days with 80-90% humidity, with large areas not having trees, I hardly think anyone would want to go outside if you live in those conditions.
SA is not SD. One time it was 81 degrees outside on Christmas day in SA. That's SA for you.
That same prairie covers 95% of Dallas county and most of Dallas' suburbs. smh
FYI, you said the Hill Country was on the Southwest side.
I never made fun of him. I laughed at him arguing something subjective.Point being, you are making fun of Rascal of not wanting to go outside in 90 degree weather.

Also, whenever it's 100 degrees in San Antonio during the summer, it's never 90% humidity.
Lastly, I've experienced over 25 San Antonio summers.
Holy man. It was 78 degrees in San Diego this past Christmas!SA is not SD. One time is to 81 degrees outside on Christmas day in SA. That's SA for you.
I really question your knowledge of practically everything. You banter about as if you know what you're talking about, but you don't. You really don't.
BTW,
In case you missed it.

78 degrees in SD with the Ocean Breeze is nothing compare to SA. SA humidity mostly stays around 80% but it can get up to 90% and those days are the worse.
So you say its subjective. You have experience 25 years of SA Summers. Tell me, did you go outside for a 5 mile run when it was 100+ degrees outside, 80% humidity.
Yeah, 80-90% humidity isn't even really possible on 90 degree days. That would be mid 80s dewpoints, which don't even happen in Mississippi and Alabama, much less Texas. Daytime summer dewpoints are usually in the low 70s (which feels horrible) and nighttime dew points are usually in the high 70s.
