Thank you, Penn & Teller

So, according to the first episode of the new season of Bullshit!, the BMI (Body Mass Index, the weight-to-height ratio the government uses to tell us what fat-asses we all are), was invented by a mid-19th-century Belgian mathemitician with no medical training. According to its numbers, Brad Pitt is overweight and George Clooney is obese.

It doesn't mean I'm going to stop going after these love handles or not buy a bike, but I will feel a little less anxious about how much I like the pizza.

Hear that, non-fit people? We can all relax a bit. Any statistic that calls George Clooney a lard-butt is not going to rule my life.
