due to all the judginess, bitching, accusations of bullying and clicquiness if more than two people agree it's wrong to say things like 'fat people should be shot'? Have been followed around and called a bully on a thread i had hardly been on. Anyway don't care if AIBU, am off for some real life. Cheerio! Grin

Do you glug it with an open throat?

Litchick · 26/08/2010 17:18

Fanjo - is this about that Dawn French stuff?
Honestly, those who were spouting vile stuff about fat folk...well...in rl you wouldn't do more than laugh.
They are not clever.
They are not funny.
They are not interesting.
They are not remotely worth bothering about.

You on the other hand are always worht reading.
I trust your chicken stir fry and rice was nice. I had to make do with a salad because the fish I'd planned to cook had gone off.

LadyBiscuit · 26/08/2010 17:21

That is right up there with the pointless addition of 'innit' to the end of sentences where it doesn't work TSC ie 'There's no cokes left in the fridge, innit.'

Bleugh

Handy tip - do not take the keys off the keyboard to get the coke out - you won't get them back on again. And if you're going to spill coke on your keyboard, diet is better. I am very good at breaking keyboards Blush

i seriously don't like the anti-fat posts because I have several good friends who are overweight, and because they are just judgy and twunty, tbh

Glad you didn't let fuckwittery drive you out. Between her and another vile person and the person who accused me of stalking and threatening her for happening to be on two threads in the same day and not agreeing with her, I felt like upping sticks myself (although no one would have cared :o)

If we let bastards drive us out then this place becomes Bastardnet...and it just doesn't sound the same. Justine would get fewer spots on talk radio for a start! Wink

LadyBiscuit · 26/08/2010 17:31

Me too Fanjo. And what I really, really hated about them is the assumption that all the shriekers make that if you object to what they're saying, you're clearly morbidly obese because what kind of normal person feels anything but revulsion when they see very fat people?

That's such a fucked up attitude I don't know where to start.

ethelina · 26/08/2010 17:31

Is there cake? I've just made a victoria sponge [smug emoticon] (scraped the bowl though Blush)

Have some of mine. Always makes me feel better.Grin

fanjoforthemammaries7850 · 26/08/2010 17:31

yes, I don't want to go on about how I am not obese, like there is something wrong with it, but if I don't I will be assumed to be!

you can hate racism and be white though!?

I think that particular poster was just projecting her own fears and insecurities.

Rockbird · 26/08/2010 17:33

For the record though, as an obese person, for all the shit that the likes of her throw, it is heartening to see so many people defend 'us'. Not that we should need defending but...y'know....I seriously would never leave the house if I thought all people were like her.

Kaloki · 26/08/2010 17:34

Glad you are sticking around, never really spoken to you before, but as one of the "fatties" Hmm I really appreciated your posts

TheCrackFox · 26/08/2010 17:34

I think certain posters were displaying that their only achievement in life is to be slim. Sad fuckers.
