My missus noticed me standing on the bathroom scale, sucking in my stomach. “Aren’t you wasting your time?” she smirked. “That won’t help you.” “Of course it will,” I told her. “If I don’t suck my stomach in, how can I read my weight?”

You could get a talking weighing scales - that way you don't have to suck in

I had one of them talking weighing-scales once ... it was rubbish.

Any time I stood on it, all it would say is "Ahh Oooooh! Gerrof me!"

Nothin' worse than a smart-arse weighin' scales.

I can't use weighing scales

I am so dense in mass that I generate my own gravitational field so weighing scales are useless for me***

I just want to know why anyone would bother their ass stepping on a scales - that sounds too much like exercise to me.
