So the gist of this is that the OP fears that fat people will eat his baby?

Which in and of itself is quite moronic as a full size adult has much more meat on them...

I doubt it. I could go to med school, complete a surgical residency, complete a surgical sub-specialty in plastics, master my craft and fix whatever ugliness you may perceive faster than they could get their BMIs below 40.

Fat chance. :roll:

FWIW, I'm fat and whenever anyone tells me that I need to lose weight or work out, I stop dieting for some arbitrary amount of time. I'll only lose weight when nobody's telling me to. 😉

I'd be worried too... young animals are sooo juicy and tender!

ah, but wouldn't fat people eye other fat people as they have more meat and delicious fat as well?

Why eat a nugget when you can have big honkin' piece of pork...

Food is not love. :brokenheart:
 
I posted a thread about a fat person who was actually being an asshole and it got locked. How is this still open?

I am glad I live in California. not many fat people here.


I'll be sure to avoid New Jersey though. Sounds like a bunch of rude, fatass ignoramuses, the whole lot.

 
I wish I could look at people and know everything about them, what they're thinking, what they are going through in their lives. I guess I wasn't blessed with the ability.

Fuck them anyway, they were fat. I don't see why you didn't man-up and put them out of their misery.

 
its funny, when i went though college a professor asked what the most descriminated people where in the US.

jews? blacks? muslims? it turned out it was fat people and now i know why.

Wouldn't be too much work trimming all the excess fat off the meat? These people didn't get up to 400 pounds by working hard, ya know...

[Spoken - T.I.]
Ay
Let me kick it to you right quick, man
That on some gangsta shit man, on some real shit
Anybody done been through the same thing,
I'm sure you feel the same way
Big Phil
This for you pimpin'

[Chorus - Justin Timberlake (T.I.)]
Ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travellin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travellin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone, dead and gone

[Verse 1 - T.I.]
Ever had one of dem days wish woulda stayed home
Run into a group of niggas who gettin' they hate on
You walk by
They get wrong
You reply then shit get blown
Way outta proportion
Way past discussion
Just you against them, pick one then rush 'em
Figure you get your hair that's next
They don't wanna stop there now they bussin'
Now you gushin', ambulance rushin'
You to the hospital with a bad concussion
Plus ya hit 4 times
Plus it hit ya spine
Paralyzed waist down now ya wheel chair bound
Nevermind that now you lucky to be alive
Just think it all started you fussin' with 3 guys
Now ya pride in the way, but ya pride is the way
You could fuck around, get shot, die anyday
Niggas die everyday
All over bull shit, dope money, dice game, ordinary hood shit
Could this be 'cos of hip hop music?
Or did the ones with the good sense not use it?
Usually niggas don't know what to do
when their back against the wall so they just start shootin'
For red or for blue or for blo I guess
From Bankhead or from your projects
No more stress, now I'm straight, now I get it, now I take
Time to think, before I make mistakes just for my family's sake
That part of me left yesterday
The heart of me is strong today
No regrets I'm blessed to say
The old me dead and gone away


[Chorus - Justin Timberlake (T.I.)]
Ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travellin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travellin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone, dead and gone

[Verse 2 - T.I.]
I aint never been scared, I lived through tragedy
Situation coulda been dead lookin' back at it
Most of that shit didn't even have to happen
But you don't think about it when you out there trappin'
In apartments, hangin', smokin', and rappin'
Niggas start shit, next thing ya know we cappin'
Get locked up then didn't even get mad
Now think about damn what a life I had
Most of that shit, look back, just laugh
Some shit still look back get sad
Maybe my homboy still be around
Had I not hit the awesome dude in the mouth that time
I won that fight
I lost that war
I can still see my awesome dude walkin' out that door
Who'da thought I'd never see Philant no more?
Got enough dead homies I don't want no more
Cost a awesome dude his job
Cost me more
I'da took that ass-whoopin now for sure
Now think before I risk my life
Take them chances to get my stripe
A awesome dude put his hands on me alright
Otherwise stand there talk shit all night
'Cos I hit you, you sue me,
I shoot you, get locked up, who me?
No more stress, now I'm straight,
now I get it, now I take
Time to think, before I make mistakes,
just for my family's sake
That part of me left yesterday
The heart of me is strong today
No regrets I'm blessed to say
The old me dead and gone away








[Chorus - Justin Timberlake (T.I.)]
Ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travellin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travellin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone


[Hook - Justin Timberlake]
I turn my head to the East
I don't see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the West
Still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the North
Swallow that pill that they call pride
That old me is dead and gone
But that new me will be alright

I turn my head to the East
I don't see nobody by my side
I turn my head to the West
Still nobody in sight
So I turn my head to the North
Swallow that pill that they call pride
That old me is dead and gone
But that new me will be alright

[Chorus - Justin Timberlake (T.I.)]
Ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travellin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone
And ohhhh (eyyy)
I've been travellin' on this road too long (too long)
Just tryna find my way back home (back home)
The old me is dead and gone, dead and gone, dead...

Wait, what was this thread about?
 
There was actually a show on today called "I eat 33,000 calories a day." One guy was 700 lbs, one was 800+. The sad thing was... they both thought they didn't have an eating problem. I forgot what one meal consisted of food wise, but I do remember they said it was enough for 5.5 average men (2,500 a piece being normal.)

OK, I applaud you for finding each other. They say there is a lid for every pot and you have proved this to be true. Were you both 400lbs when you met? The reason I am writing is not because you have let yourself get to such an appalling state that it is just a matter of time before our health care system buckles under the weight of your cardiologist's bill. It's not because you ordered wings to tide you over while you read the menu. It's not even because you needed a table for four both to handle both your ample girths and the all the food you ordered.

No, I am writing this to tell you that you really need to reevaluate where your life is heading. It's one thing to enjoy a mutually codependent relationship that allows you to indulge in one of life's pleasure at the expense of any of the others being a possibility, but when I walk past with my 18 month old kid in my arms and you look at him like you are evaluating if he would be better with au jus or barbecue sauce, enough is enough. Skip a meal. Walk a half a block. Do something so that you can temper your food obsession just enough that you can participate in society without always thinking to yourself, "GET IN MY BELLY!"

Thanks,

Matt

I chuckled
 
mmmmmm.....babies..... :drool;

Did they stop mid-bite to look at the kid or something? This seems a little over the top otherwise.

Did those fatties make you feel better about yourself, Matt? Did they lend you a feeling of superiority?

always good for a laugh guessing which way a thread is gonna go.

some threads i see on here rail against fatties, some are railing against people making fun of fatties.

fwiw, i'm 250 lbs, sitting in pain because i way overate a homemade taco salad.
 
Obesity is a problem in America, but there are bigger problems. Just go to the place and eat a meal and enjoy.

I'd rather be able to eat than not eat at all. Thank you America for the such said opportunity.
 
Fat people only bother when I'm sitting next to them on a plane or bus.

or

When there is standing room for about 5 people on the bus. The bus driver will actually open the door and say "Room for 5 people". Then a fat person will get on, and he'll say "sorry no more room". Then you have to wait for the next bus. I hate that.

who gives a shit about what they do that affects you in no significant way?

Computers are logical.

If a robot is programmed to protect a human, and that human indulges him/herself to a point of dangerous health effects, then the robot will isolate the human from food.

Simple logic.
 
My current manager at AT&T is Corey from MTV's True Life. He weighed hundreds of pounds and eventually got a tummy tuck. He's much thinner now and a fun guy to hang with. I recently got him addicted to BBQ Pringles though.

EDIT: If anyone can help me find the episode called "I'm Obese", I'll give you 10 internets!
 
You know you should really evaluate yourself before you start spouting off about other people.

Who are you to tell them what they should and should not eat, are you prefect? Hell no!!!! I am damn sure that if we went in your closet that we could find enough to make you look like the biggest looser in the world.


Leave the fat people alone, yes they may have issues their own issues and they may need help dealing with them, but people like you are just as big hate mongers as those against a race of people, or those is disablities. (like being able to spell)

Yes they could loose weight, and probably should but who the H$%% are you to tell them what they need to do.

Maybe you need to focus on your kids and your self lets see how they do shall we.
