lol Squirrels are interesting creatures.

@Doomfishy: Lol, we have way too much time on our hands. xD;

@Suona: Yeah, I figure they'd make you clean.
I had to do so much cleaning before I was allowed to do anything technical.
It sucks, but everyone needs to start from the bottom.

@Seiki: It must be fun to drive into your town. There have to be signs all over saying 'Surprise!'.

EDIT: SQUIRRELS ARE THE DEVIL'S CREATURES.
ONE BIT ME THIS YEAR AND IT HURT SO MUCH.

I can't wait for this event. I just picked a team. I like computers and such, so I picked Engineers. :D Also, when I read about Duval on this forum... I thought about Duval County, and then thought about Jacksonville, Florida. ^_^;

Hahaha, Colorado is such an outcast! We're the ONLY state with obesity rates below 20%... we stick out like such a sore thumb. >_>

@Seiki- I'm just sayin, the founders must have been like: "Desert... desert... desert... SURPRISE, SOMEWHERE INHABITABLE! It's so small though... well, we can cram a ton of people in here! 8D" And I live in Denver, population 598k, sooooo... xD

Ooh, thank you. I should have thought of Google maps. >_>;

I'm from a Chicago suburb. :3
Yeah, Chicago. That's right. It's more awesome than wherever you're all from.

I'm just kidding. :)

I dont even want to know what the California obeisity percentage is

If you go to the CDC website, you can watch a timelapse map of the US getting progressively more obese. xD

If you count the fact that Surprise is one of the outer cities surrounding Phoenix, and Phoenix has 1.3m people in it, then I have to beat as far as major cities are concerned :P

Google maps are <3

@Suo- According to that there map, it's only 20-24% :3

@Seiki- Well... hush. :P And I have you beat as far as typing the correct word is concerned. >:3

Yusss <3

Isn't Bella from Phoenix?

Hm... I heard West Virginia is one of the fattest states. Sorry if I was off topic on my first post. :(

Now that I look at the chart, it is overweight. :S Florida is like fit in a sense. I think I'll move to another Southern state that is "overweight". ;) But I might not be able to eat their restaurant serving sizes. @[email protected];

That she is.

gah. x.x Cant wait for the event to start but need to sell more things. D:

Who's going to see the new Twilight movie? I'm so excited for it. :D

Not me. Both Bella the character and the actress who portrays her irritate the living daylights out of me.

Yeah, West Virginia, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Alabama, Mississippi and South Carolina are all in the >30% range. ^^;

me me me! the midnight showing is on my birthday so I'm totally going to be there!

Obesity is disgusting. :talk2hand:

@ anna - Wow. Would have expected it to be worse.

I'm pretty sure the "fattest state" is currently Mississippi.

@Seiki: That's an awesome start to your birthday. :)

I think the twilight movies are so fun to watch. They're not... exactly quality films, but does it matter? The best movies are the ones that I enjoy the most. So that means I'll watch Harry Potter over the last two Lord of the Rings films. Those were boring and took themselves way too seriously.

As long as we get Jacob to rip off his shirt and some hilarious vampire antics, I'll be happy. xD

@Suo- Yeah... I think obesity is greatly over-exaggerated in America because of the density (hurrhurr, badpunz, I has them) in big cities~ I dunno, tho, I'm not a professional.

Hm... I'll only choose to live in West Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama, or South Carolina.

Mississippi is ok, but hm.... Oklahoma is the Southwest. >_<;

Now that I think about it, I'll add Mississippi to my list. ;)

I just saw a fattest man alive program on TLC and the guy was British.
Obesity is everywhere. It's called being lazy and eating unhealthy and people do it everywhere.

Did you pull that from the Kathy Griffin/Oprah special?

Siri, yeah, I just like watching them too. They're nowhere near close to the books in most cases, but they're like guilty pleasure things for me. As bad as they are, I feel compelled to watch them haha!

Nah. I obsessively read infographics. xD
