no, maybe little bit overweight but not fat.

there probably just jealous (the people who worked that out) that people are better than them at something.......

Nope, I'm dangerously thin, easy on the eyes and fairly optimistic at points.
Modest too!

If I wasn't a misanthropic bastard I'd probably be far more social.

Well, I'm not very depressed, I'm extremely fit, and I'm currently working on cutting edge analytical chemistry, so I don't think I'm a loser...

Well I don't get out alot, I don't eat properly, I don't and haven't had a girlfriend in a very long time. But I'm not fat.

So you tell me.

Nope. Most people (guys) that have seen what I look like wouldn't imagine me being a gamer. "A girl like you playing a game like this... What the hell is wrong with you?" or "Shouldn't you be out with your friends or something?" Yeah, I've gotten that a lot.

Depressed some, yes. Fat? Not particularly. Antisocial? I have nothing but disdain for the prejudice and hate that humanity is steeped in, o yes, I suppose I am. I have a few friends, though... :|

No, not really. The only thing that goes along with it is that I'm a bit of a social gremlin.

What "study" was this?

Whoever did it is a complete fuck tard and it sounds more like an opinion than a study.
