Brian: I’m with you, Bub. Do your “pushaways” (from the table), put on your running gear and do some roadwork.
The problem with a culture that is built on victimhood and immediate gratification is that it blames someone else for the problem and is also unable and unwilling to put in the work necessary to achieve the desired results. That’s why you have all those gimmicky workout machines (most of which tout the ability to work out in front of your TV).
Staying in shape can be tough and it demands physical and mental determination. Far easier to push those bon-bons in your face while sitting on your ass and blaming someone else for your misfortune.
The best part of my day is getting outside for an hour and walking (my knees are FUBAR, so running is out). Leave work, stress, all the bullshit behind. Put in my earbuds and go.
