Hypocrits

Yes. I dislike them. They're annoying.

This is actualy an authentic story that you're about to read. This actually happened, and the fact is that you are probably the same.
This afternoon (I live in Europe, so you'll have to excuse my time zone), I went down to Burger King today for a quick sollution to my stomack problem (I was hungry, ok?). I placed myself in the line, which was quite long and patiently waited for my turn. I hear this seemingly married couple behind me talking about someone, and after a while, the man shouted "Marcus!", after which some 265pund (120kg) man in front of me turned around and looked over my shoulder at the people behind me.
Now, the man whispered something to his girl, and the next second i heard an "excuse me" followed by two people stepping ahead of me to talk to this Marcus-fellow in front of me.

I thought to myself
"Should I even bother being a jerk by telling them to place themselves at the back of the line, or what? Nah. I can let it slip. They only want to talk to that dude, and whatever. I really don't care about waiting another 2 minutes. It's not like I'm in a hurry or anything."

When it was their turn to order:
"Two dubble whopper plus-meals and a normal whopper cheese meal, please."
Remark: They were all clearly overweight, of which the woman looked like she weight even more than Marcus did...
"And drink?"
"We'll all have diet Coke, please."
What the fuck? What is up with that? Either all of them hate the taste of sugar, or they are not aware of the small fact that Aspartam, or neutrasweet, as the companies so nicely call it, destructs your brain... Sure, i know that you'll need to intake a crapload of it before it hurts you, but still. Because there is no way in hell that they CAN believe that the small loss of sugar you get from not drinking normal coke will make up for all the goodies their cool little hamburgers give them. No, sorry, it can be that way. Actually, it's like that everywhere. "I'll have these 24 tasty Chicken Mc Nuggets, a dubble frensh fried potatoes and a DIET coke"... No comments!

Well what do you know? Five minutes later, i find myself sitting back-to-back with this Marcus fellow as I eat my delighful meal... Normal coke.
The next thing i know, the woman starts talking about weight loss:
[Ok. This has nothing to do with hypocracy (at least the first part of it), but I want to add this to show you how stupid people (like yourself) can be.]
"I've lost two pounds this last week"
Oh that must be so hard, concidering you'll only need to step up in the morning to do exercise.. Only CARRYING your weight must be an assload of exercise..
Marcus replies:
"Oh really? Did you try out some new trick?"
"Yea, my husband and I have started eating this new diet and it's great!"
Either that diet is "hamburgers only", or you guys got the meaning of "diet" wrong.
The husband takes over:
"Yea, it concists of cod (a fish) and vegetables only."
Oh, that's just great. As you live in sweden, that cod is probably cought in the baltic sea, which mean that you two will die from heavy metal toxicity in about 4 years. Good call! Did i forget that you're only able to gain 4/8 of the vital b-vitamins from fish, of which 3 of those can be found in cod. That just shortened your lifespand aprox 2 more years.
Blablabla. No more fun until 5 minutes later.

By this time, i had actually started eating more slowly as I was getting interested in the conversation (yea, i know.. im such an evil man evesdropping on people at a fast food restaurant). Now, they changed topic (after seeing a person asking to get ahead in the line due to him having an important meeting to attend), which i was quite amused they'd mention . Must be some cool once-in-a-lifetime thing for me to hear two people talking about this after what had happened 6-7 minutes earlier.

Man: "Oh my god! I can't believe he just did that! He just used that as an excuse to get ahead in the line! That's so un-moral."
Woman: "Yea. Those people should be shot in sight."
Marcus: "Well. There are real bastards in this world"

Now, is it just my memory being unclear, or didn't I write that down just now, that those guys went ahead of me in the line. I'm kinda unsure... -scrolls up to check- Nope, I did write it. And it is still there, so..
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS WORLD?!
Isn't there some kind of punishment to be awaited by people being able to run for the first prize in a stupidity-contest?

Well, i couldn't hold it any longer. I felt an urge for killing them all with one lightning strike (It's so satisfying making up imaginary images of being a Zeus-like figure killing everyone on the spot), so i eat up my all-to-expensive meal (yes, I'm a poor student) and took away the trash. Just before I was about to walk out, I leaned over their table and expressed my thoughts about them, by asking them what it was they did when they got ahead of me in the line. They were quite offended and expressed their defending point in a loud tune as i waled outside.

Now. What can you make of this?
Nothing. Except that this is reality. This is how the world is.
Every single gossip-paper has at least two "new! breakthru diet methods" written down in them, and not one of them are working if your goal is a longer life. On the other hand, if everything you want is to lose weight go ahead and try them. But than I surgest you do it an easier way and just starv yourself to death. It's a quicker road to both weight loss and death.. Must be a win-win situation for you.
And all these stupid dorks being hypocrits. I actually believe they are worse. I mean... To first walk ahead of someone in a line and than trash talk people who does it..... SEVEN minutes later!?
Wohoo! There's your winner in the idiocy-contest.
