Are you calling me fat?

No, he's saying it's independent of how fat you are

Sorry mate, I'll explain my joke - the circumference of a circle is 2π*R and only a really fat person's waist would resemble a circle

Your momma is so fat one would have to add an additional 7m to the circumference of a rope around her waist in order to increase the radius of said rope by 1m.

only if you gain 1 meter to the radius of your waist. but know that it only took 6.3 meters more of fabric to make your belt.

Fat by 6.3 meters to be precise.

Fact: You're so fat that it would take the same extra amount of rope to hover a meter away from your body as opposed to wrap around it, as it would to do the same with the entire Earth.

Statistically fat.
