Japan Dictates Waist Size
Sumo wrestlers aside, Japanese are not known for being overweight. But unfortunately, they are developing a reputation for plunging off the deep end of moonbattery, which they have accomplished most recently by dictating a 33.5" maximum waist size for men.
In accordance with a new law, everyone between the ages of 40 and 74 is required to get an annual waist measurement. Financial penalties will be inflicted on companies and local governments whose wards don't measure up regarding the waist size targets.
Women get to have 34.5" waists. I wonder how much waist transsexuals are allowed.
On tips from Dave D and B1BBET.

How the hell do they manage to square this with sumo wrestling?

This is why I'm so against socialized medicine! Britain is heading in this direction as well.

You laugh now, but you know there's some moonbat on Capital Hill going "Say, that's not a bad idea..."
