#3 is particularly fitting to this forum.
3. Closeted Fatties
You may be familiar with the concept of Secret Internet Fatties, or people who use cropped or distorted pictures of themselves on social networking sites to hide their true overweight status. But this closeted fat person goes way beyond a simple picture or two. Rather than just trying to hide their weight, they constantly feed on their bitterness about their size in order to tell the whole Internet about how much they hate fat people.
This type of poseur is most often found on sites containing celebrity pictures, where he or she will react with both horror and derision about the latest starlet who has increased in weight up to a size four. They will then waddle to the kitchen to sob helplessly into a bucket of fried chicken.
Although making snarky comments about others’ weight is often seen as a female habit, male variations of this poseur are quite common. These can often be found talking about the fact that the starlet is no longer attractive to them now that her ribs are no longer visible, and describing how they would throw her out of bed in the highly likely situation that she tried to sleep with them. Not mentioned is the fact that she probably wouldn’t fit in the bed anyway, thanks to all the fat rolls and Fleshlights.
