MAN do I hate running. Or Jogging. I make myself do it because I want to be in shape Mac from Sunny as opposed to fat Mac in Sunny, but still...

Exactly! And even if you could, people don’t have to be healthy to be human, to be treated with respect, or to be deserving of basic human dignity. 

I mean, I’m not saying I’m going to personally go around sneering down my nose at people, or breaking down their doors to pull them off the couch and onto an elliptical machine.
