Since you’re expressing your amazement at this, let me just point things out from the other side: being unable to eat two slices of toast and a glass of milk in 20min without a tummy ache sounds very weenie to me. There are people of all shapes in the world with all sorts of fortitude. That breakfast wouldn’t even test mine. Except maybe when coming out.

Or maybe they are spending too much time on a device scrolling through a feed instead of actually eating?

I find that extremely difficult to believe.

Difficult to believe? That not everyone has a massive, bottomless pit for a stomach? I don’t know why that’s extremely difficult to believe since everyone is different and I’m hardly unique.

But you’re certainly not the first. I’ve had plenty of waiters who are convinced I hated my perfectly delicious meal simply because the serving size is way too big for me. I’ve had colleagues make “jokes” about my “girlish figure” when I fail to clear my plate at a business lunch. And someone on the internet even called me “a weenie” while telling me that people come in all shapes! (I mean, honestly?)

For some reason people seem to have a hard time comprehending that everyone isn’t exactly like them. It is what it is. But what it’s not is my problem.

What's hard to believe is that only people with massive bottomless pits for stomachs can handle eating two pieces of toast.
