（单词翻译）

All right. From riding bareback to rating backfat, a Japanese study found that overweight people over the age of 40 like me live six to seven years longer than skinnier, more / annoying counterparts like Bill. Tohoku University, which, if memory serves, is just outside Cincinnati, followed 50,000 people, I wish I could do that, between the age of 40 and 79 for 12 years; and found that longevity¹ equals largevity. It’s said that associate professor Shinichi, unpronounceable name guy, quotes "there had been an argument that thin people’s lives are short because many of them are sick or smoke, but the difference was almost unchanged even when we eliminated these factors."

 

Um…

 

Translation: I’m going to outlive everyone because I’m a fat bastard².

 

Patti Ann, do you buy this stuff?

 

No, I mean I think I just saw a study recently that said the exact opposite that people who are skinny, not, not just of the right weight, but actually a little bit underweight live like 10 years longer than the rest of us. So I don't know where, I mean this is a Japan study probably sponsored by the Sumo Wrestler³ Association.

 

Right. They don’t live, the Sumo wrestlers do not live long because you know, they are fat, which kinda like it goes against everything. Hey, Robert, it took me a while to work out through my tiny little brain. Hey Robert, do you buy this at all that being fat protects you against illness?

 

Well here’s the thing. It’s a Japanese study as Patti Ann just said and their diet is different than the American diet. (True.Yes) So I think a lot of their Omega-3 is from a lot of the fish. And the fat that they are getting may…

So it’s really difficult to translate to an American diet. (That is true.) Because even the Omega-3s in certain grass-fed beef which the Kobe beef and certain another..., I mean they may have an imbalance in terms of that, what that study is. But lean is mean. (Somebody has been reading that Prevention Magazine) Lean is mean. I always read the Prevention Magazine.

 

And does this study scare your skinny little rump?

 

Er, no, I think I’m just going to start eating while I’m on the treadmill⁴. You know, a doughnut, a milkshake.

 

You could eat anything you want. Er, by the way, Ann, the question was directed to your rump.

 

Could we get the answer please?

 

Well, the rump stays thin mostly by reading the Treason Times (Alright, there you go.) Perhaps you can have a word from the Treason Times which is I’m going to murder you tonight. (Murder you!)And I get so angry it burns off calories. So I can just be one of millions of other subscribers and drop my subscription⁵ and I’ll be up like a blimp.

 

All right. Hear that, Christi, Ally, get more angry.
