being physically unfit is hell.

imagine not being able to wipe your own ass because it’s too wide for your own arms to reach

imagine not being able to tie your own shoes because you can’t bend enough to reach them either.

imagine getting winded from standing still

imagine your joints screaming in agony every time you so much as stand up

imagine not being able to clean because you can’t reach the floor without risking falling over and not being able to get back up.

i have been up to the very brink of letting my weight disable me and I count myself EXTREMELY LUCKY that I seem to have stopped on the edge and pulled back before ruining the rest of my life.

The pleasure of eating always disappears IN MERE MINUTES but the consequences can linger indefinitely if these indulgences are left to go unchecked.

IT’S NOT WORTH IT.

Okay but there’s a bit of a difference between “Enjoy food” and “so morbidly obese that you’re almost disabled”.

No! There are only people so obese they cannot physically move themselves and people who look like perfect hollywood starts without a single fat cell in their bodies! Anyone who tells you there is such thing as a wide spectrum of life is lying to you! The internet told me so!

You’re right overall but it also has no relevance in this context. Keanu isn’t even close to that level

Stop ruining it for them. They already opened another pack of chips feeling completely justified.

Some people, like me, enjoy life more If they are at least somewhat physically fit.

I just mean that it seems kind of strange to equate looking somewhat unhealthy with enjoying your life.

Oh it would.

I feel better being more fit because a lot of my interests (and my job) are very physical, and being as large as I am now makes doing the things I enjoy doing more difficult.

Not everyone has those interests or that type of work, and that’s okay, too. We all have value.

“It’s strange that people think they can enjoy life in ways that I don’t enjoy” is definitely a take.

That’s good for you. The original meme was literally body shaming him while on vacation

Edit: for the curious it was literally for a film festival

That’s what I mean too: Blanket statements are nonsense. Of course, this applies in both directions.

After some cursory research ([1] among other meta-analyses), this does not seem to be true below the age of 80. Could you cite a source?

Flattering angle, professional photographer trying to make him look good, beard hiding signs of aging vs. unflattering angle, paparazzi scum trying to make him look bad, no beard to hide aging.

The crop makes him look fat, too. In the original pictures, he literally looks like a relatively slim middle-aged man - which is exactly what is he when he isn’t training for a movie. Too many people forget that very few celebrities are consistently pumping iron to the extent that they have a perfect body throughout the year. Rob McElhenney goes into detail about this topic, I recommend everyone watch it when they get a chance

Exactly. Keanu is 60 next year, I’m happy if I’ll look half as good at 60.

The people who expect celebrities (or anyone) to be at peak alll of the time can go screw off, though. I thought body shaming died off with those stupid gossip rags, (magazines). He is more than the value of his evternals. People love him because of his actions and choices, who he actually is. Him being epic in movies is just an added bonus.
