Should I totally let myself go?

Pros:

French fries
sweatpants
Cumberland Brews' porter
parmesan reggiano
recent surgical/transplant advances
better able to empathize with average Americans
the sizzling catfish with black bean chile soy sauce at Azalea.

Cons:

more likely to be made fun of by wisecracking bloggers
heart/liver/lung/colon disease
assumed to be American in foreign countries
need to request seatbelt extension on airplanes
ring around the heinie
constant need to fend off "May I have your autograph, Mr. Gandolfini?" requests
always scraping the car door across the sidewalk

I'll do whatever y'all say. Please complete the poll below.
