We Are A Fucking Fat Lazy Nation

[THUNDER HANDS]

deserving of ridicule, especially if this contraption catches on with the masses....

a treadmill that moves.

[Veritas_et_Aequitas]

1. At this point, if it gets people exercising, I'm in favor of it.

[Triana]

2. WTF is the point? Why not just jog or walk?

Pffft!

If that contraption catches on, not only are we fat and lazy, but also STUPID.

[AndyTiedye]

9. They Have Made Exercise a Commodity

[Aqaba]

11. WTF!! ITS AN EMERGING MARKET!!!

THERE ARE PEOPLE TO LOOT!

[JVS]

3. Now I can slouch on a bar when I'm running!

[tavalon]

4. It has magnificent potential as a kinetics race base

Otherwise, outstandingly silly.

[kid a]

5. If they can get it up to 20 mph i can see a use for short trips to work/store - fuel/fat cell pwr

[kestrel91316]

6. Proof that a fool and his money are soon parted (if anyone buys it).

[Aqaba]

7. Yep the End is Nigh...I can only counter with this...

8. It is funny to watch .... But I am going to be contrary ...

> The energy generated by belt movement can be stepped up or down, by implementing a geared transmission system ...

> An electrical motor/charger system could be added, like a hybrid system, that can kick in when extra power is required, and recharge on downhill or flat sections ...

Combine both of those elements, and you might stop laughing ....

10. Look everyone....Its the spirit of thanksgiving!! LOL

[rug]

12. Probably better on the knees than jogging.

[Swamp Rat]

13. LOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!

19. troof

[Swamp Rat]

20. Now that I have stopped laughing so hard I could not type in complete sentences,

that has got to be the dumbest 'invention' of the 21st Century. :rofl:

D U M B ! :rofl:

[d_b]

28. And it's creepy

I'd shit my pants if I saw two assholes barreling that beast down my street at 9am. I wouldn't know wtf to do.

[Swamp Rat]

30. Call your governor and ask for reinforcements.

Tell her there are Russians driving a tank down your street. :D

[d_b]

31. lulz +1

[Quantess]

14. Make it child sized, put a video game on it

and send the kids out the door!

[Historic NY]

15. I can't watch the T-VEE that way.

That sucks.

[codjh9]

16. What's next? An exercise bike with 2 wheels that ... oh wait, they already make those. :^)

[shraby]

17. Looks to me like an accident waiting to happen

I didn't see any brakes.

[bertman]

18. That's the new-fangled "green" treadmill. No electricity required, except the five gigawatts

to smelt the aluminum, melt the rubber for the tires, and charge the batteries for the cattle prods to keep the child laborers at their workstations. Dog bless Amerka.

I wonder if that fucker goes in reverse?

[really annoyed]

21. Ok then

I agree that contraption is silly, but is the fat bashing necessary? Fat doesn't equal lazy or stupid, OK?

[Oilwellian]

22. Flintstones, meet the Flintstones

Don't know why I thought of them. :rofl:

[petronius]

23. It looks really silly, but if it has any kind of gearing system it could be

faster than walking. Possibly lower impact than jogging. And perhaps with more cargo capacity than a bike. All in all, it still looks like a faddish contraption that will make the user look like a complete dork, but I think it has minor possibilities...

[Systematic Chaos]

24. The music in that video gave me a woody.

It makes me want to invest like I've never invested before!

:spank::spank::spank::spank::spank:

[Missy Vixen]

25. Ahh, fat bashing never gets old, does it?

Thanks for your concern.

Julie

[McCamy Taylor]

26. And damn proud of it!

[cliffordu]

27. You are. I rode my mountain bike 30 miles today.

I'm a strong fat fuck

[ContinentalOp]

29. It doesn't really seem lazy. Just stupid. -nt-

[electricmonk]

32. Looks like somebody is a MST3K fan

About 3:30 into the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82isUtd4hAw

[JI7]

33. that music

[JI7]

34. people who live in areas where they could actually use that

probably already are able to walk in those same places and don't have weight issues as people who live in areas without good places to walk.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

35. Maybe it will get people to stop using their gas guzzlers as much and to exercise more.

It looked like those people were getting a good workout. My only objection is that it might cost so much that it's a waste of money.
