If you have not seen her in 2 years then how do you know she is still fat????

And if you found her anoying then why did you add her on facebook...because the only way you could see her status is if you added her in the first place or accepted her as a friend...

[Aafimoq]

They genuinely disgust me. When I look at a fat person with rolls of fat hanging out of their shirts I feel like I've been violated. 99% of the time it is fully within their own control so it doesn't deserve any sympathy. The only time I cut them some slack is when I see one at the gym, at least they're trying.

What really gets me though is when fat parents allow their children to get fat, just because they're happy to be disgustingly fat it is nothing short of abuse to allow your 5 year old child to be really fat as well, and will physically and psychologically damage them in later life. It is outrageous and should be punishable in my opinion.

I know it seems mean to some people but I don't care

So you feel disgusted because of the way someone is living their life? If you're so bothered by these people why not just look?

You're just hating someone because they're different than you--that's alright, but don't make it sound like it's some other reason.

Facebook has pictures.

Err, didn't I say it was for both reasons (there's more as well to be honest)? I hate to look at them and I hate the other things - the abuse with their fat kids, the drain on our healthcare (in the UK I am essentially paying for these fat people when they get ill), them taking up 1.5 chairs on the bus and squashing me into the window, the smell, the sweat, I could go on. Yes it's bad/mean/whatever but it's how I feel and thankfully fat people don't seem to get much protection politically so ...

[Aafimoq]

I hate to look at them

So you hate someone based on their looks--not their personality, not their beliefs, just their appearance.
the abuse with their fat kids What's your medical degree in that you're knowledge of the human body is so great you can tell just by looking at someone that they are unhealthy--to the extent that you call abuse?
the drain on our healthcare (in the UK I am essentially paying for these fat people when they get ill) I assume you feel the same way about someone who was speeding and got into a car accident because they could have avoided it right?
them taking up 1.5 chairs on the bus and squashing me into the window, So don't take the bus, drive yourself, or walk. Do you feel the same hatred when you have to sit next to someone who is healthy but has broad shoulders? I somehow doubt you feel the same way as if you had to sit next to some "fatass".
the smell, the sweat, I could go on I've never sat next to someone fit that smells bad... [rolleyes]
Yes it's bad/mean/whatever but it's how I feel and thankfully fat people don't seem to get much protection politically so ... That's because they're the last group of people it's politically alright to discriminate against based on their appearance. But then again I'm sure someone of your vastly superior genetic makeup and ruggedly good looks would never have to deal with.

How about posting up a picture of yourself shirtless and letting the internet pick you apart based solely upon your looks--I'm guessing that plenty of people can find flaws in your appearance.


The point I'm trying to get across is that we're all human--we're all different, discriminating against someone based solely on their appearance is wrong. There is no difference in the act of calling someone a fatass as calling someone a ******, you're making a decision about the person's quality based on their appearance regardless of "if they can help it" or not.

I don't "hate" them, they just sicken me.

It hardly takes a qualified doctor to see when a small child is obese

I assume you feel the same way about someone who was speeding and got into a car accident because they could have avoided it right?

Yea but one-off mistakes aren't so bad, everyone makes them. Being fat is a continuous, day by day decision to burden the health system. Not a moment of stupidity.

So don't take the bus, drive yourself, or walk. Do you feel the same hatred when you have to sit next to someone who is healthy but has broad shoulders? I somehow doubt you feel the same way as if you had to sit next to some "fatass".

So I should boycott buses on the off chance a fat person will sit next to me?

I've never sat next to someone fit that smells bad... [rolleyes]

Lucky you.

I've got many a flaws thanks I don't think it would shed anything new. Anyway the point is I think people shouldn't be hated on/ridiculed for things they can't help (ie born that way) but self-inflicted flaws like rolls of fat hanging from every seam of your clothes then yea.

Well you're point was badly done. I didn't say I hate all/any people based on flaws in appearances, just fat people who have 100% choice in not being that way. If they're happy with it fine, good for them, I'm still allowed to say what I think about them.

[Aafimoq]

Yes you are, it just shows that your brain hasn't developed past a junior high state.

but what if it IS their choice to be fat? what if i they just like to eat, go to work, etc. and just dont want to work out because they are happy the way they are?

it only pisses me off when fat people raise fat kids, because those kids do not have that same choice.

[beloveds]

Or we have to cover their additional expenses, such as for diabetes, cardia-vascular care and medication, aircraft loadings, sewerage systems, etc.

obese people are like people with large families - do what you want, just don't expect others to be happy covering for you!

Yea that must be it [rolleyes]. Are you telling me there isn't anyone you dislike because of their actions?

It's almost always their choice to be fat isn't it? And you don't have to work out not to be fat, you just need to stop eating so damn much!

Agreed, good comment.

[nryFBa9i]

You get put in prison and/or children taken away if you starve them, but it's fine if you grossly over-feed them.

Both are equally detrimental towards the child's health (I say the latter is even worse) so why are they not punished equally too

They are not equally detrimental. Try this don't eat for 2 weeks see what damage that lack of calories, nutrients, etc. does to your body then try eating your normal diet but add in a donut or two a day. Which is worse starvation or a few empty calories.

God damn diet Nazis.

[easypokergonj]

God damn diet Nazis.

We're talking about parents who let their kids get clinically obese, not giving 'a donut or two' ...

[Aafimoq]

There are plenty of people I dislike because of their actions or their ideas--you are one of them, but there aren't any people I dislike because of their appearance. When people grow up they realize that it's a stupid thing to judge someone based upon their appearance.

You're missing the difference - I have already said I don't have a problem with anyone who looks different but can't help it. It just happens that fat peoples action affects their looks, but I'd also dislike a group of people who's actions affected something else. Basically you're saying you can dislike someone because of their actions, as long as the thing it affects isn't their looks/appearance? I don't get it.

[Immampdah]

And you don't think giving a kid an additional 300 to 600 calories a day would be enough to make them obese? What 'we' are talking about is the claim that starvation and obesity are equally detrimental. They say a child dies every 5 seconds from starvation, at a wild guess how often do you think a child dies from being obese? Don't be so f-in stupid!

[RokeIdeadioke]

In that case they should pay ALOT more into the social healthcare system, their bus and plane tickets should cost more, and their kids should be given the choice to live a healthy life.

If you do it by choice, pay for it. Money. A co-worker is really really fat and happens to stay home for alot more days than the average person simply because of heart problems or whatever. He gets the same salary as me. Why cant I have his share from the days he's missing (since I have to do his work anyway)? And once I get to stay home sick he gets mine? I guess I'd be way better off than he would.

That was a bit overstatement on his part. But he has a point!

It's our tax money that takes care of these people when they get sick. Same goes for people who smoke and drink too much.

IMHO the best treatment for alcoholics (who don't want to stop. You can't cure from alcoholism but you can stop drinking.) is to give them access to unlimited supply of alcohol... Nature will take care of the rest...

Same thing with obese people.
