					<description><![CDATA[You&#039;re quite wrong. Men get fat when they&#039;re pining away or having a long-drawn-out existential crisis. They shed the weight when they&#039;re in love. It&#039;s totally irrelevant whether it&#039;s reciprocated or not. And here I&#039;m talking about fat, not the heaviness of middle age.

Tucking in a deux does not make a person fat. Eating copiously, and mainly carbs, does. Eating copious amounts of carbs is comforting in the absence of human comfort.

Sorry, but I have more life experience than you do. And that&#039;s why I&#039;m largely indifferent to Bedingfield&#039;s fate. I&#039;ve known him for two decades at least and he&#039;s never been anything but a prize jerk. That&#039;s why his wife left him. Women don&#039;t do that easily.

Sharp jerks are tolerable, even entertaining. Thick jerks, not so much.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I doubt it. When men start eating everything in sight and growing to those proportions, there&#039;s just the one reason: they&#039;re miserable. They&#039;re not miserable because they&#039;re fat, but fat because they&#039;re miserable. If Gland were to fall in love, for example, he&#039;d shed the kilos in a nanosecond. But there&#039;s the rub: when you&#039;re in that state, you&#039;re just not open to it. ]]></description>

It looks as though it&#039;s a battle between containment and explosion.

When a person is in such a bad way, and it is so obvious, keeping him there is to turn the knife deeper daily. And that is what Muscat is doing: waiting to deliver the final blow in the name of mercy.  

He&#039;s so twisted.]]></description>
