So the GD Waist Size thread got me thinking.....
A few of us (including myself, with proof) are actually in shape, but a lot of us are not. So, gentlemen, I ask you Men of "Stature", are you Bubba? Now, who is Bubba? Well Bubba is more than just a body type, Bubba is a way of life in reality. But for the purpose of this thread the question will focus on physical appearance, antics can be up for discussion. If someone saw you walking down the street, would they say "there goes Bubba?"

You don't need overalls to be Bubba, but it helps.

No idea. 6'-1 and before I got sick weighed 185. Dropped down rapidly to 140 and no back up to 175. I still have visible muscles they just don't do much. I lift 15 pound bar bells every other day and then that's all I can take.

There are plenty "bubbas" around here, a lot of them are sheriff deputies in my county. I guess that's why canines are so popular now because none of them can run 30 yards without passing out. It's funny to me that a lot of them brag about being so big like it is an attribute, I guess maybe it is if they sit on you.
I know one guy actually named Bubba but he is far from being one, former body builder and computer scientist. Shame about his name but he is a good guy. |

I've met a guy named Cleetus who looked like Larry the Cable Guy. Had a twang. Real intelligent guy that most would immediately judge as a dumb redneck. They would be wrong. |

Bubba? I find that term offensive. Are you aware that there are people in this world that have a severe medical condition which causes them to be that way? My mother for instance is one of those people. She is a truck driver that has bad knees and a bad back from driving the truck but you probably do not care about that case either. Oh well I am not one of those people I am 6'4" 245lbs and I exercise every day. I would love to see you say something like to my mother in front of me. Probably never happen though you are probably just an internet tough guy. I doubt very seriously you would say that to someones face. Just my thought.What do you think. Oh I am sorry you probably do not have a brain. I on the other hand will be happy to buy you a plane ticket to come here and see if you have the nerve to say that to someone I know.

Quote HistoryQuoted: as "prepared" and "vigilant" as a lot of arfcommers like to refer to themselves as I am surprised more aren't in better physical condition. Well I am “prepared” because I have a ton of snacks and I am “vigilant” so I will know if you try to eat my snacks! My BMI may be a 4 digit number and my blood sugar level is similar to testing pure molasses but they come for my snack stash and it’s on. Let’s see you out hike my tactical mobility scooter! With that I am like a mossy oak and molle covered Dalek! Exterminate! |

I don’t wear manlet sized pants because I’m not short or skinny and I’ve never purposely belly flopped into mud nor do I own overalls and have never been to any gathering that has “redneck” included in the name.
The only dude I know that’s named Bubba has never been fat in his life, come to think of it, I don’t know if that’s his name or nickname, could go either way I guess. |

There is a picture of a big guy floating around that is all tac'ed out, has a belly hanging over the front that could cover a Tiffin motorhome and his chest rig looks like a postage stamp on a refrigerator box.
It was floating on this site for a while....I cant find it |

What’s awesome to know is that 98% of members reporting in have the chiseled bodies of Greek Gods, are over 6 feet tall, perfect teeth and have flawless credit. We are talking about a legion of übermensch!
We shall sleep better knowing that the top 0.08% of males on Earth have chosen to gather here and now stand ready to restore this nation to the physical standards of which it was founded. |
