gigantic primitive has half a mind (non-update 02-20)

[franksolich]

I've been there and I've seen those rides and there is no effing way I would get on that ride, skinny or fat.  I doubt the ride operators would allow the gigantic primitive to go on those rides, either.

You suppose the ride operators would allow the gigantic primitive to ride a Tilt-A-Whirl?

Or barring that, in case Last Vegas doesn't have Tilt-A-Whirls, maybe a merry-go-round?

But really, my first choices for getting the gigantic primitive and his wife out of that cramped, smelly apartment, would be either bump-cars or the Tunnel of Love; I bet people would pay admission to watch that.

The gigantic primitive really needs to get out, even if just to a carnival.

That's the ride Pam said she's trying on her next visit in March! Based on the picture of that ride, and her Crohn's disease (for which she's taking chemo), there's likely to be shit flung all over Las Vegas.

It sure is sweet to have the Bugg telling me I'm burning off 12 calories per minute like some sort of human furnace!!

He only has to cycle about 50,000 minutes to get down to a respectable size. That's barring any future intake of calories.

gogogo pedal those stumpy legs lvl!

Okay, overnight, I thought of something else.

The objective is to get the gigantic primitive, undeniably afflicted with agoraphobia, out of the house, mingling with other people, during which time the pounds should naturally on their own volition recede away.

And besides, the overworked Jeanette needs to get out, too.

The gigantic primitive seems to be reluctant to go out to see his friends, his former co-workers, at the casino where he once worked.  Maybe there's some bad feelings still lingering there; I dunno.

The gigantic primitive doesn't seem enthusiastic about strolling, hand-in-hand with Jeanette, through downtown Last Vegas, window-shopping at clothiers for big and tall men.  Admittedly, there actually might be some discouragement in that, looking at all these fine clothes.....none of which are exactly inexpensive.

And going to a carnival, taking in some rides--well, it might become discombulating, and hence uncomfortable, when the gigantic primitive realizes that people around them view the gigantic primitive as part of the carnival itself, part of the sideshow.

So maybe these aren't such great ideas after all, and they do involve spending money, which is in short supply for the couple.

How about something that requires no money, and involves only people with good intentions?

The gigantic primitive alleges to be a "wiccan," a male witch, or a pagan, or somesuch nonsense.  However, at the same time, the gigantic primitive imagines himself a liberal, open-minded, tolerant of diversity, thinking outside the box.

How about if Jeanette were to take the gigantic primitive to church?

It would make no difference which church; I'm sure Last Vegas is loaded with churches.

The gigantic primitive wouldn't have to go to church for religious reasons; he could just as soon go there for social reasons, for cultural reasons, for reasons of simple curiosity.

I myself when a little lad discovered that church services are not merely church services; there's theatre, pageantry, concert, culture, sociology, going on there.

Attending a church service should prove fascinating for the gigantic primitive, not to mention it wouldn't cost any money--but most importantly, it would get Jeanette and the gigantic primitive out of the odoriferous cramped apartment, and fling them among caring people who wish only the best for them.

The gigantic primitive imagines himself a liberal and open to new ideas; to prove this, I think he should try this out.

[Reality vs DU]

I've done the big shot three different times now and it is worth it every time!  If you are going to Vegas do your self a favor and visit the Stratosphere.  Having gone both day and night, it is much better at night.

Here's another suggestion for the gigantic primitive, whom I agree is agoraphobic which just feeds into his eating disorder.  It's a bad cycle he's gotten himself into - he doesn't want to go out of the apartment because he's so heavy so he eats more. 

In this Booosh economy, or the leftovers from the Booosh economy, maybe the gigantic primitive could volunteer at a soup kitchen, homeless shelter, or a food pantry.  He is, after all, a liberal and therefore believes in giving back and providing comfort to others who are not as fortunate as he and Jeanette are. He could set his own hours and he could help out his fellow man.  I would say Meals on Wheels but that stationary bike might be an issue since it doesn't really go anywhere. 

In all seriousness, he needs to get out of the apartment and give something back to the community; after all, he is provided for by the hardworking taxpayers in this country and the State of Nevada.  No matter how big he is, there is something he could be doing besides playing video games and eating.

Booosh economy? This is a pure unadulterated Obammy economy engineered by the democrat controlled congress in 08 to get his sorry socialist ass elected. They crashed it and now they can't uncrash it so they blame the former administration. It's going to take someone with balls and foresight to fix this mess they've caused and this turd they've got in front of the teleprompter lacks both.

I did it at night and it was awesome. I liked the wait in line too, watching all the tourist helicopters flying way down below you was pretty cool. The roller coaster was ehh. It didn't impress me one bit. This new thing they have that chucks you out over the side looks interesting. I'll go check that out if I ever get there again.

Last time I was in Vegas I thought the coaster at the NASCAR cafe looked pretty neat. We were sitting at the light when that thing blew out of the corner of the building like it does. I've had the jones to do it since.

[GOBUCKS]

The Las Vegas Lardass needs more incentive. Living all holed up in a single wide with slave girl Jeanette and wino Joe just isn't getting it done. He needs to be reminded that by simply losing 200-300 pounds, he could go from this:


To an all new life, without a need for the slave girl Jeanette. A whole new life, possibly with a new career running the Tilt-A-Whirl in a travelling carnival, attracting women like this:

[The Village Idiot]

He will also find the people IN the churches are much less judgemental than people outside it.

[DumbAss Tanker]

If that.

Carnival ride operators get great chicks.

  aaaarrrrgggghhhhh.... I am just going to imagine her face looks like a wookie. It'll make me feel better.

[PatriotGame]

Alone with a girl for 4 days. Even someone as unsocial as me, almost a monk, can do better than video games.

Blow up dolls?

[PatriotGame]

The Tunnel of Love doesn't need any blockage.

Gawd, hard to believe it but I think I just came up with a gay joke from that.

blech.

Well, there is Hoover Damn he could try on for size.

[The Village Idiot]

Blow up dolls?

Why would a girl want a blow up doll when I'm there?

I was just joking about the Booosh economy.  They all blame it on Bush and conveniently forget that the democrats have been in control of the checkbook for three years now.

Oh I know. I just like hammering the truth into the lurkers that come by here.

The latest from the gigantic primitive:

Ege Bamyasi
February 8, 2010

Amy (Daffodil) went ahead and brought us the beans, rather than going to a food bank, because they're (understandably) not comfortable going into the part of Vegas where the food bank is. We ended up with around ten 1 lb. bags of assorted beans. I guess that means we'll be having a lot of beans and rice and things like that, but I'm not complaining! In fact, we have a stock pot full of a brown rice, corn and garbanzo bean pilaf with canned tomatoes that we whipped up recently that we've both been noshing on. Good stuff!

I got in a good high-intensity round on the recumbent yesterday, going for a shorter time but a higher speed. I wanted to cover 8 "miles" in half an hour, and ended up missing the mark by one second! Better luck next time.

My thread in the Exercise forum is updated with my sessions and stats beginning with 1/31 through to yesterday. I'll be doing some more exercise today for sure. My legs have that "worked out" feeling to them now. Not pain, exactly, but just a general feeling of muscles getting woken up and used. I like that. It makes me happy.

[Carl]

That is excellent news...soon those legs will be able to walk him to the employment office and start putting his name in for jobs.

Quite interesting that since whoever it was appeared here and they got real world no nonsense advice his life is sloooooooooooooowly turning around it seems.

Now if he can accept that his political beliefs also would benefit from our advice.

[kenth]

Carnival ride operators get great chicks.

To go from being an attraction to running an attraction is a worthwhile endeavor. If he's ever going to get there, he's gotta lay off the carbs.

[The Village Idiot]

Goodness only knows what a "mile" is.

[GOBUCKS]

Since Valentine's Day is coming up, perhaps the gigantic primitive and Jeanette can stroll around in downtown Last Vegas, looking at the store displays of chocolate hearts, window-shopping.

The gigantic primitive really needs to get out more.

[Karin]

Gobucks, where did you get that from???

[AllosaursRus]

Gobucks, where did you get that from???

Better yet, is that him? If not, I'll lay odds it's extremely likely it's damn close! Hahahahahahahahaha!!!!
