In Celebration of the Average Guy

I just wanted to give a shout out to all the average guys out there. I don't waste my time going to the gym, I'm by no means fat just an average kinda guy. Ron Burgundy you da man!

Mmm yes, an 1.5 hours or less at the gym staying healthy and in shape, such a waste of time!

You lazy shit

I maybe spend that amount of time total (I guess about 2 hours) in a given week working out, and it still makes a bigger difference than I'd have ever thought

I guess I'd be miserable if I spent my life getting by just by doing 'enough'.

Its actually quite liberating being comfortable with who you are and not wasting time or energy trying to pretend your someone your not to impress others.

LOL, that's one way too look at it I guess.

So, by your logic, I'm pretending I'm someone I'm not by having a college degree? Because, I mean, I could just sit here without one and work at McDonald's and be myself.

Being average = not impressing others? What if being myself is the same as being awesomely above average?

Sorry but we all can't be average, but maybe someday... I mean to say there's always hope.
