How will he even get on a plane?!

[Maunal] Uribe [1,200 lbs] made an impassioned plea for help earlier this year on Mexican television, saying he weighed a more normal 290 pounds until age 22 and did not know what happened to him.
...
No one has managed to find suitable scales for Uribe in years and estimates of his weight are made partly by tape-measure.


He kept fucking eating, that's what! Yeah I know obesity is a problem, but it's not all biological folks, it's a mental problem as well.

On the flip side, I think it's awesome that they have to do an order-of-magnitude estimate to determine how much he weighs - I presume they measure an average circumference, assume a spherical cow and density equal to water, and calculate!

Ooh, they have new open front toilet seats! Honestly, I've never gotten the point of those, it's just so public restroom-y.

Sorry, but I don't think the Big Johns will catch on in Japan, leader of toilet technology. They're too small there. Just look at NYC subway train seats.
