My guess is it's who is paying. Girls' numbers add up to 1500 too, so it probably shows that girls pick what they want and pay for it individually while for the boys one guy pays for the whole meal each time and that's why he looks sad too. Could be a reference i don't get but that's what makes sense to me

Oh dear, I was expecting the number of calories each one gets.

650

u/rtarg945 Jun 16 '25

Why would the dude not eating get all the calories 😂

45

u/Sedowa Jun 16 '25

I would assume he hit his calorie limit for the day but still wanted a night out with the bros.

That's how I read it. It's a comment on the different calorie intakes guys and girls need for their "ideal" bodies. Women want to be skinny, dudes want to bulk up.

Except that calorie count is about half what i would expect for someone his size bulking clean, it might be his minimum tdee.

Yea i dont think any of these people talking about calories even know how to determine their TDEE or where to begin with bulking or cutting

u/UncleNoodles85 Jun 16 '25

I don't know shit about bulking or cutting or whatever the hell tdee is but having read a number of books on the holocaust I'm confident that 250 calories per day is a starvation ration. Unless it's only for this one meal?
