"For the first time ever, overweight people outnumber average people in America. Doesn't that make overweight the average then? Last month you were fat, now you're average - hey, let's get a pizza!"

- Jay Leno

About this Quote

In this quote, Jay Leno is making a funny observation about the current state of weight in America. He mentions that for the first time, there are more obese individuals than those who are thought about typical weight. This leads him to question whether being overweight should now be thought about the brand-new average. He then jokingly suggests that because being obese is now the norm, it's the ideal excuse to delight in a pizza. Leno's words highlight the social pressure to conform to particular body requirements and the continuous fluctuation of what is thought about "normal." In general, the quote satirizes the ever-changing definition of "typical" and the obsession with weight in American culture.
