Sorry but other countries are, they just show it in different ways.
The UK has shite newspapers filling their pages with celeb bollocks, but other countries have magazines/tv programs instead. Biggest selling mags in Spain are all celeb gossip, you get 3-4 hours a day tv aswell. Same as Italy.
You notice the UK more as it's your language. Reminds me of my mother that loves coming to Spain as kids dont swear all te time in the street, I point out to her that they swear more than in the UK she just doesn't understand what they say.Comment

Wow, some semblance of intelligence from Sortie. Impressive.Would you tell the bum that laid drunk in the ditch for 10 years that he did a great job after he was
sober for 3 years and had completed tech school to become an electrician?
I would, because it would encourage other bums to get out of the ditch.
Look at the highlighted words/phrases in your post above.
They define a method.
People have basically two methods of controlling other people :
1. Kick them when they are down and this will make them get up
2. Encourage them to get up and congratulate those that do
Number 1 is a "punishment system".
Number 2 is a "reward system".
The words in your post show that you clearly favor the "punishment system" method.

Fuck that, you obviously are not or have not been a fat fuck.not sure about it being a huge accomplishment... studying for years to get an academic degree, or perhaps training for years in order to complete a marathon under 3:30 is an accomplishment...
getting your shit together for 30 days, by eating healthier, and hitting the gym for 30 mins a day is not...
that being said, nothing wrong with some praise, but lets not act like something huge was accomplished...

Getting a masters degree is easier than losing weight...and I'm off.Comment

Everyday people who decide to turn their life around and get in shape or better themselves should be praised for things like this. Not everyone can afford dieticians or personal trainers to help speed this process up. Celebrities do it on purpose for fitness dvds or to model new clothes ranges, I have no praise for them whatsoever. Your everyday guy or girl who busts their ass every day at the gym, I have all the praise in the world for.Comment

I heart you...waiting for my soupAnyone that notices a problem in their life and fixes it should be praised for recognizing the issue and putting forth the effort to fix it. Whether or not they caused the problem is irrelevant, nobody is perfect. Striving to become a better person is a quality that few people have.
For example, you have a potty mouth (not that I don't LOL.) But your mother might praise you if you corrected it. I know mine would!

I've been quite overweight and in a pretty poor shape in the past, not quite a "fat fuck", but still quite overweight... getting in shape wasn't that bad, first few weeks were perhaps a bit hard, but after that you get used to it and it's not bad at all...Custom Software Development, email: woj#at#wojfun#.#com to discuss details or skype: wojl2000 or gchat: wojfun or telegram: wojl2000

I agree you shouldn't be praised for getting fat and then losing it, don't gain it in the first place.Comment
