    What a stupid thread. San Antonio is fat because most of the city is a spread out commuterville and everyone eats lardy Tex-Mex and BBQ. It has nothing to do with lack of trees or access to healthy food, lol. People from SA don't choose to be fat exactly; but they do choose a certain lifestyle that leads to fatness, despite the plentiful opportunities in SA to eat well and be active.

    You have to be a ing moron to think GMOs or nonorgranic food is to blame, btw. It's all about calories in, calories out. That's 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.
    It was 82 degrees with 25 percent humidity. It was a very very comfortable day.

    I wish I could slap the stupid out of you. But I'd probably concave your brittle skull into your peanut sized brain.

    100 degrees and 80% humidity... you're trolling now, aren't you?

    100 degrees with 80% relative humidity would be a heat index in the 130s or 140s. Really nasty summer days are usually high 90s with 50% relative humidity. But it consistently hits 100% relative humidity at night in the high 70s temperature-wise, which is why it feels horrible to go outside at 4AM in the summer. Most of the time it hits the 100s in summer I welcome it, because it's often from dry desert air coming in and dropping the dewpoints into the 60s.

    No ones arguing that the obesity rate is high because of lack of trees.

    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.

    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.

    Prairies have lots of trees now because we stop the wildfires that used to keep them at bay.

    Exactly. The hotter it is, the lower the humidity. Overnight and Mornings are yuck but evenings when the sun is fixing to set is very pleasant relative to the rest of the day. It's porch weather at that point,

    I live here and i like it but Barkley is completely right.

    San antonio is consistently one of the top 5 fattest cities in america, which is itself the fattest nation on earth. Number 2 is mexico. San antonio is filled these people.

    All things considered, san antonio is not only one of the fattest cities in the world, but in the history of the world.

    In all of human history, there are only a few other places on earth that can put up as many heffers as modern day san antonio, tx.

    It has got so bad, that being obese-not eve fat, but obese- IS THE NORM. If you are an adult and not fat, YOU ARE THE WEIRD ONE. The horror is that these bovines are so used to being surrounded by other cattle that they dont even have any shame anymore. Anyone going about their daily business can see these fat s people waddling around, sweat stains all over their 'clothes', guts so big they are hanging out from under their shirts, mystery pouches on 'women', spare tires so grotesque it looks like they really do have in intertube around their waist under their shirt, asses so huge and deformed thatylook like their own species of animal, and legs so thick and full of ripples and cottage cheese and moist from sweat its hard to keep your lunch down. these people.

    Barkely is right. This city needs to do something about our 'fat culture'. Is gets more serious when you see all these little kids that are like 5-10 years old and they are alredy so fat they look like a balloon thats about to burst and are on the brink of needing a breathing machine and probably already have diabetes. their parents. ing disgusting obese pigs
    so basically you think people can not think for themselves and the gov needs to do everything for people

    I never understand these "my city is better than your city' debates. People have different tastes and reasons for living in a particular place.

    Is the weather in SA perfect? No. But at least its pleasant most of the cooler months and locals know how to keep their head down during the heat of a summer day.

    It's not like this is East Germany and no one can leave. If it sucked so bad, it wouldn't be growing so quickly.

    Sure, but so has New York, Los Angeles and San Diego.

    BTW, those 90s were low humidity days and very comfortable.
    New York has not hit 90 yet.
    15 days already this year at 90 or higher since April 1 in San Antonio. June, July, August, 1st 3 weeks of Sept. almost every day , day after day 90 or better in san antonio.

    Complete and total irrelevance aside, my issue with Barkley's comments is that 1) he doesn't talk about how fat San Antonians are, he only talks about how fat San Antonio women are, 2) he's the goddamn spokesman for Weight Watchers for 's sake, and 3) he's been making those inane remarks since what, 2007? He hasn't just been beating a dead horse, he's been whacking the out of it for literally years now. It's old, it's a tiny bit unfair since he's only targeting women, and it has no place being discussed any further here.

    Ah yes, argue something that is subjective.



    Yeah, well, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

    Btw, unless you're living in San Diego, you can gfy.
    I was responding to your subjective comment "those 90s were low humidity days and very comfortable"

    A calorie is a unit measurement but can have different sources. So a calorie from process saturated fat, isn't the same as a calorie from natural wheat. That is where I am getting at with the OUNCE of gold (calories from wheat) is not the same as an OUNCE of iron (calories from saturated fat, which was my first point made in this thread). I guess I have write a dissertation next time I want to explain something.
    Agree: Your body processes calories differently as to the sources the calories come from.

    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.
    The clay dirt is a result of dead dry grass that burns up in the summer heat.

    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.
    Unless the trees were planted because naturally the San Antonio area is not forest with dense tall trees like it is in the northern part of the country.

    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.
    He exaggerated the numbers but it still can be high enough to be very uncomfortable combined with the high temperatures.
    In the northeast it is often hot and humid when it does get hot.
