Fat. Death by fat or skinny and prejudice.

So, we all know that fat is the new acceptable form of prejudice.  Can't discriminate against colour, race, religion, gender, but fat is the new go-to place of segregation and repulsion.

Another thing about fat (being one myself - fat that is - yep; you also lose any other aspects of your being - intelligent? mother? father? priest? teacher? prostitute? - doesn't really matter - "the gross fat one"... "ah okay, I know who you mean now...") is that I'm thinking it's really a kinda passive aggressive slow way of killing yourself.  Sort of like having anorexia, but without the pity factor involved.

Think about it - I mean, you see a person starving themselves to death and it's "oh poor dear, let us help" (that is, after the sick admiration that they have that much willpower and clouding emotions of envy have cleared at how 'cute' she'd look in that negative sized dress, have passed.)
BUT have a person eating themselves to death and it's all "gross" and "lazy bum" and "fat bustard needs to get a life" etc.

Inverse disease; inverse reactions.

Same root cause?  Dissatisfaction to the nth degree; a desire for change; a feeling of hopelessness and lack of esteem; desire for things to end; a need to fill (totally unrelated to food.); a need to control some aspect of their lives... whatever it is, fat is a symptom not a cause.

Here y'are

Some basic things.  Wanting to vent and burble and ramble and otherwise share thoughts as they occur and sometimes, after consideration.

You may not like them.

It doesn't matter.

If you think about them and like them or don't like them, the thing is - to think

If you don't wanna think, then that's your prerogative and no, I'm not gonna dumb down, or fancy up, my language/grammar (or grandpa... and yes, I'm gonna make stupid jokes if I feel like it too.)

Read or don't read, it's up to you.

This is essentially a technically ultimate expression of absolute narcissism.  I wanna so I'm gonna.

Cool.
