Seriously.
Man invites us to join in laughing at an article for a stupid paragraph…people mention that the paragraph is, in fact, not that bad at all, and that the man actually misread it…man defends himself by saying the average Joe won’t read it correctly, either.

The average (ignorant) reader will likely just skim those numbered “tips” and conclude that they’re just better off avoiding broccoli, brussel sprouts etc.
You can’t judge the quality (much less the accuracy) of advice based on the potential for misuse.
For real. But then, we are becoming a society that caters to the weakest and dumbest among us.
Can’t find an MRI machine that will house your 400lbs big ass so the doctor can tell what is wrong with you? Cool, the hospital will simply make the machines bigger (as well as the beds in many places). We don’t want anyone to have to drop a few pounds, do we?[/quote]
Sometimes they just take them to the zoo to get an MRI.

Doubtful. In fact, I think people would be even more inclined to read it because they would wonder why the author would put vegetables on such a list. His attention grabbing list draws you right into a paragraph that is pretty simple to read and understand.
Though I will agree if you have ADD it might skim right over your head.
How could anyone misinterpret what they are saying? It actually states broccoli etc…is great for long term weight loss and healthy. Just Not to eat right before you hit the beach? Which is what it is; men’s health

Wait… eating lots of food can make you bloated?
Funny thing I bet there are a lot of people on this site who get bloated from a big meal and think they’re getting fat…and then they go on the V Diet.[/quote]
