I am too lazy to exercise and I am a vegetarian. I don't like eating much anyway because I think spending time eating seems to be such a waste of time.
My general health is great - no heart attacks, no brain haemorraghes, no tiredness etc so far. I can trek up hills without problems which others huff and puff.
I hear that fat american kids munch on potato chips, cheese burgers etc all the time. Now if I do the same, will I gain weight quickly?
Generally, burgers contain meat (that's where the fat is), and so are not recommended for vegetarians (except on Tuesdays).
Vegeburgers generally consist of sweepings off the floor of the food processor; little fat, but zero flavour (unless you count cardboard), and no nutritional value.
If you really want to be even more unhealthy than "too lazy to exercise", you are going to need to do a little more research - and a little less US-bashing.
Good Luck from the UK :)
How do cows and buffaloes become so fat munching on grass?
How do cows and buffaloes become so fat munching on grass?
The kind of cattle you are talking about probably don't get much chance to munch on grass. Then they are industrially processed.
The book "Fast Food Nation" will answer many of your questions (as well as putting you off from ever going to a "fast food" place again).
How do I become fat?
Have you considered beer?
2 large cookies and 3 scoops ice cream
Lunch
Order a large pizza, extra cheese, extra meat
have it cut into quarters
flop one quarter upside down on the other
flop one quarter upside down on the other
enjoy your two sandwiches with the bev of your choice
(make it a diet coke, ordering the bev with as straight a face as you can manage)
a 44 ounce starberry milkshake
Dinner
find a chicken fried steak place that offers the CFS in a size that fairly well covers a 12 inch plate
request extra cream gravy for both the steak and the
sides of buttery mashed potatoes
add a salad, 3 bits of lettuce drenched in full flavored dressing of choice, with some cheese on top
Blackberry cobbler, three scoops of ice cream
Repeat the above every other day, every day if you're up to it, until you're within 12 lbs of your desired weight.
There are of course other ways to gain weight, but the above has an enjoyment factor going for it that's gonna be right hard to beat, and even more difficult to stop. :)

Well there's the problem....
Try multitasking :)!

... more I think of it this seems to be a hopeless case ;)
He clearly is proud of being in good health, so FAT isn't the issue; weight is.
But he said:
I am too lazy to exercise
His lack of weight is lack of muscle and quality, not FAT - he needs to get off his harris, avoid lame posts on forums - don't we all ;) - and DO something.
Once he builds up some muscle tone and an appetite, his problem will disappear. He's not vegan, so he cannot blame his diet.
Mind you, if he's jealous of fat kids eating cheeseburgers, the problem may go deeper :)

The beer was a good idea; goes well with laziness.
I can vouch for that.

Just pretty much break your legs
I did exactly that and can state unequivocally that as a weight gaining technique this one does work.
While you're busy breaking your legs, stop smoking cold turkey and double your fun...
If for some reason none of this works you can try drinking heavily and staying out all night, then spending 10 hours a day in front of your computer. Follow that with getting divorced and relocating to the other side of the country. That one always works for me.

Lots of bread with margarine ... Tastes great.
Meanwhile, back on Planet Earth ... :)
Eat more bagels.
Olive oil will make you fat.
Put some oil on that bread! With a little pepper!
I suggest a workout program to beef yourself up. It doesn't have to take much time, and what time it does take will be well worth it.
Take such vegetarian meat, dip in batter and deep fat fry. Serve with chips three meals a day and wash down with beer.
Stay thin like Gandhi. You will out live us all!
Any idea what the minimum weight should be, for my height and age? 125 lbs? 150 lbs?
>>> Redefine vegetarianism to include animals who only are vegetarian themselves
It is a religion/family thing. Can't do it.

OK. But I don't want to get shot.
It has:
The $15.50 burger's big turkish bread roll is topped with a steak, a chicken schnitzel, a potato cake, bacon, egg, cheese, onion, pineapple and beetroot.
It has 7000 kilojoules and sounds like something Elvis would eat, I am going to try one on the weekend as the pub is not far out of the way.
Eric Bana admits to binging on fast food to prepare for his role in Chopper as the earless-one.

You're in the 2nd percentile for weight, which means that 98% of men your height weigh more than you. I assume that you are a small framed person, and as such, your healthy weight range is roughly 150-170 lbs. If you are large-boned, you should be closer to 200 lbs.
I'm a bit taller and roughly twice your weight. A lean weight for me, with very little fat is 215.
Take a cooking class-food should be enjoyed. Start playing a physical sport, or take up weight lifting.
