“What? You want to get to class faster? Nah man, you’re too fat for longboards, bikes and scooters. Guess you’ll just have to walk everywhere on your slow fat feet.” Well thanks, man. Just because I’m a big guy doesn’t mean I don’t want to cruise around campus on a longboard or bomb down that …
I’ve always hated trying on clothes. I would much rather just buy a pair of pants and then return them later if they don’t fit. Even though I probably won’t return them. This drove my mom nuts and makes my wife even nutsier. However, I was never able to see their side of the argument …
The average weight in the U.S., in particular, has increased steadily, and now, with 73.7% of men (including me) considered overweight or obese, why has a truly heavy-duty hammock been so long in the making?! Well actually, high-capacity hammocks have always been there. There were just never marketed directly to us big guys and plus-size …
“Go camping!” they said. “It’ll be relaxing!” they said. I guess they didn’t foresee the situation where my Walmart “Camp Chair For Big Guys” had two of the legs bend right in half and the seat tear, dumping me on the ground. While that day was a little bit painful and a whole heap embarrassing, …

“Time and time again, the most comfortable camping cot is the biggest camping cot…” Fat people aren’t meant to enjoy the outdoors. Or at least that’s the conclusion I came to after my search for the most comfortable camping cot for large adults. I could find lots of extra-wide, double, and even plush-looking cots but …
So let me guess, you’re a bit bigger than average but you’ve somehow caught the kayak bug. I hate to tell you this, but that bug isn’t going to go away! I was bitten by the bug to own a kayak several years ago and now have half a dozen of them in my garage. …
Despite being very well off, my grandpa has had the same furniture on his patio for over 40 years. His kids have given him new patio furniture which has come on and gone but the same few items have been there since before I can remember. During that time, the chairs and the swing frame …
I hate to tell you this, but the only cure for wanting a paddleboard is buying a paddleboard. I thought that, since I’m a fat guy, I would eventually just watch enough skinny people on paddleboards that I’d get over trying it. I was wrong. So when that failed I went on a mission to …
