    Nah... I'm PMS, which means I just want to argue endlessly. Big grin

     

     

    Hmm, let's see.

    1. discussion of fat vs. not fat

    2. Happylily saying everyone could loose weight

    3. implying that everyone is fat

    4.  FSocks showing up with witty single sentence remark

    5. Happylily's time of the month

     

    This can only mean one thing.

     

     Happy Friday!

      NOOOOO!!!! Angry

       

      I don't even know what I'm saying. Everyone is beautiful, that's the truth. In the fat people thread in L&O, I was one of the few to wonder why there is so much hatred towards overweight people. Don't make me into someone I'm not. And I have a fat ass. So I included myself in the people who could still lose weight, but won't. Big grin

        Let's get this thread back on track.

         

        No more fat talk.

         

        Let's focus on how slow we all are.

          Fat bashing seems to be the last socially acceptable form of personal ridicule.  It's about the only thing that you can still make fun of people for and not have *most* people think you're a douchecanoe.

           

          Unless you've been posting pictures of someone else, you do not have a fat ass. Smile
