      The joke is people will mention the latter at any chance they get even if it doesn’t fit.

      So the format is:

      [Important discussion]

      [Unexpectedly simple response]

      [Some guy interjects with thing he always talks about]

      But the most important detail is I personally have a fast metabolism, I can eat as much as I want and not gain weight for whatever reason lol.

        Is this the new “I use arch btw” which was the new “I’m vegan”?

        Oh that’s not what i got from that at all. I thought there was an implied fourth sentence where society beats the shit out of metabolism guy in jealousy, but they left tran people alone because that’s not actually a big deal.

          Have you never met somebody with a fast metabolism?

            Do people really talk about their metabolism that much? Or are some people just so self-conscious about their weight and eating habits that they place particular weight on those comments such that they appear to be more frequent than they actually are?

              I got a lot of comments about my weight and eating habits when I was young, so ‘fast metabolism’ was an easy way out of the conversation even if it wasn’t true.

              Or did some people’s parents unconsciously internalize it in them as a child? Or am I projecting?

            I feel like that’s a loaded term but I do know people who are going to have a rough awakening when they get older. (i.e. they won’t be able to eat like they used to without feeling/seeing it).
