I remember this professor in one of my college classes for being one of the fattest people I've ever met. Not even in terms of sheer size, but the disgusting shape of his body was horrible to look at. Sure enough, every single day he would walk in with a diet coke and then crack open another half way through the lecture.

PLEASE PEOPLE FRIGGIN EDUCATE YOURSELVES!!!
