        Morbid is such an interesting adjective as it’s only commonly used in conjunction with obese. You’d never say someone’s hair is morbidly blond, or his face is morbidly orange, or his brain is morbidly small.

          It’s because the definition of morbid doesn’t fit any of those examples except the last.

          The reason it’s used in conjunction with obese is to mean that the person is so fat that it’s likely to be the reason they die.

          It’s a classification of obese. Class 1 obesity is >30 bmi, and each class of obese is in increments of 5. >40 bmi is class three, aka morbidly obese

    SHAMEFUL! The Radical Democrat so called doctor, paid by Comrade Kamala Harris, is lying to the American People, and trying to hide the fact that she is MENTALLY DISABLED. The Lunatic Liberals are also trying to illegally hide, just like the FAKE NEWS MEDIA did for years, that SLEEPY JOE BIDEN, who many people say is THE WORT PRESDENT IN HISTORY is UNABLE TO RUN THE COUNTRY.

      “Comrade.” I actually like using that word! Ever since I read speeches by Eugene V. Debs when I was in high school.
