Alcohol and/or Drugs.
And here's Max McGee here to explain exactly why YOU'RE a bad person for not toking up!
Seriously though, a lot of drugs are pretty goddamn dangerous, although it does depend on use and a whole bunch of other factors. Cigarettes are a bitch, even, and so is alcohol if you don't know what moderation is.
And why would abstaining from anything make someone a "pussy"? Does everyone on Earth have to partake in every single possible substance they can? People sometimes choose not to do things. Maybe someone just doesn't want to snort coke.

Is this because you play video games and watch anime? Because really it bothers me when people talk about some deep cultural connection or admiration for Japanese culture just because they like a particular tiny slice of its pop culture.
Somewhat. But there are a few things I know.
Wait, so the ONLY thing you feel connected to in life is a culture you've probably never even visited, presumably didn't grow up with, know "a few things" about, and your knowledge and experience of which consists mostly of exported pop culture?
What the HELL is THIS shit?!
I remember "The Scorpion King" (one of those movies, anyway) was playing at someone's house.
The first fight scene I saw involved a guy getting hit in the chest with an arrow (pretty much a straight shot at his chest). Not only did he FLY backwards, but he did it UPWARDS THROUGH THE CEILING at like a 40-degree angle to the ground.

The rock is good for nothing anymore as a actor.
You mean he was at some point?
Midi's Versus MP3s
It's a problem with non-pop music too sometimes.
Bad audio engineering can cause clipping even if you don't have malicious intent; sometimes people just mess up or don't know what they're doing. There are also other ways you can screw up mastering a CD, of course.
As far as audio quality itself is concerned, the sad fact is that a lot of people hardly give a damn about it. Having an actually decent pair of headphones and listening to losslessly-encoded music (much of it lossless, anyway) makes me wonder how people can walk around listening to 128kbps CBR MP3s with their crappy iPod earbuds.
Also, people will often sacrifice quality for portability. See: Cassette tapes vs. records. So people will sacrifice some of the quality of their music for the ability to fit eighty thousand songs on their MP3 player. However, there's no way in Hell I'll ever BUY lossily-encoded music, especially with DRM and no frigging hard copy or packaging, but meh.

Words you know, but don't know the meaning of
Nobody has noticed that the first two posts STILL don't get what "pretentious" means?
I guess they managed to miss the other, more common definition somehow. Here are some snippets:
"Claiming or demanding a position of distinction or merit, especially when unjustified."
"Characterized by an exaggerated show of dignity or self-importance"
Word Tutor gives the gist of it: "Trying to seem more important or valuable than is true"
So it isn't just being "showy" or whatever, at all. You can do that without being at all pretentious.

Fat People
As far as hormones in meat and breast/<other womanly feature> development is concerned, it's a lot more complicated than that.
Health has a lot to do with it. Statistically speaking, kids who suffer from less disease, malnutrition, etc., will tend to, say, go through puberty earlier. This can probably affect things like breast development to a fair degree. So it isn't necessarily evil meat hormones or whatever that's doing it.

Fat People

But, yeah, genetics is against a lot of people. For instance, black women in America have the highest obesity rates amongst American females and that's because of a genetic tendency to retain more fat as they grow older.
Are you sure about this? I'm not going to completely dismiss it offhand, but I'd definitely like to see some kind of source.
Another possible cause of higher obesity in African-Americans is, well, economics. For a few reasons, poorer people tend to not have the best diets, and have a greater problem with obesity, and due to certain parts of (even recent) American history people don't like to think about too much, a disproportionate amount of black people compose the lower economic classes.
