The FAT Chronicles

[p0ink]

I thought this had more to do with one's income level than their size? Yeah, some of your taxes go to help with the health care of poor people. Some of those people are large. But you know, if I were ever low income and in a bad health situation, I'd be really grateful that it was there for me, and it is also there for you if you should ever need it. Are you saying that certain people should be denied health care just because they are low income and large? Yeah, it is unfortunate that some people are large and they have health problems, but until we are able to prevent the problems altogether, they are human beings and they deserve health care. It's too bad that they got that way however they got that way, but the system is there for all of us. And the best way to prevent the problems is to have a helpful attitude in solving them. I don't think, for my own self, that hate has ever helped me deal with my weight, so I refuse to indulge in it any more.

it is not my responsibility or anyone elses for that matter, to pay for another person's laziness and lack of responsibility. and yes, i am saying if they cant afford health care they should not be allowed to recieve if it, *IF* they brought it upon themselves. why should hard working people pay for another person's apathy and complete lack of responsibility? it sure is easy to be liberal with other people's money isnt it?

Patient: Doctor, it hurts when I do this...
Doctor: Ok, just dont do that anymore..
Patient: Gee.. Thanks Doc...

Moral.. if it makes you sick to look at fat people, dont look.


p0ink.. just as it is stupid for this Toll guy you change your mind, its stupid for you to try to change him.

Neither is going to happen.

Both of you need to get a hobby.

Again, this is a matter of your own personal attitude toward the situation. You don't have to be anything. But if you want to look at it in a way that makes that ride 10 times worse for you, it is, I suppose, your prerogative.

I am trying to change my attitude toward things in a way that helps me move through life. For instance, I could focus on how difficult weights can sometimes be. As long as I did that, it sucked to go to the gym, and I had a hard time making myself go. But when I noticed improvement, I focused on that, and I have a much easier time getting there these days. Similarly, if you are waiting in a coffee shop for a date that doesn't show, you could sit there and steam, or you could bring some work to do or a book to read, thus having a completely different attitude.

Your attitude seems to say that you find yourself and your state of mind to be completely dependent on the presence or absence of fat people!!! If they are there, you have absolutely no control over your feelings or state of mind after that. That's a bad place to be. You are always in control of how you think abut something and react to something.

excuse me, but how the fuck is it my choice that i get stuck next to the fat piece of shit that sweats like an animal? and how the fuck am i dependent on that shit? i was saying that it is not fair to the rest of society when they get stuck to a person like that. was it fair to me that i was drenched with another person's sweat since their ass and thighs cant fit on one oversized chair? does this mean im infatuated with fat people, cause i dont like having pig sweat on me? no. your arguments are simply ridiculous

 

[p0ink]

Well, you don't have to of course. I'm sure there are lawyers who are, as they are making the fees! I'm not thrilled about it personally either. But you know, it isn't just fat people doing this. There are frivolous lawsuits every day from all kinds of folks. I'd be happy if it all stopped.

yes. there are retarded law suits, but these people are blaming legitimate companies for making them fat. i dont call the cashiers at mcdonalds car jacking people, driving them to the drive thru, and telling them, "order two fuckin big macs, a large fry, and a diet coke. or i will blow your motherfuckin head off!" they need to stop depending on people to solve their own laziness and to even pay them at the same time.

 

[p0ink]

I do. Some harmful stuff has been taken off the market that way, plus some companies don't practice good quality control and what they say is in the pill isn't what is actually in the pill. People are paying for stuff they are not getting.

so we should ban otc diet drugs cause they dont work for people who eat shit and dont workout, and still expect to drop 30lbs? talk to anyone here that has used them, and you will get an overwhelming positive response on them. and no, they arent dangerous unless you are in shitty health or unless you abuse them. if people would talk to their doctors before using them, this wouldnt be a problem. and for the most part, people are getting what they pay for, if they buy from a legitimate business and follow a sound diet and training routine. so stop giving this bullshit about them not working. not too many people are going to believe that propaganda here.

 

[p0ink]

I don't think anyone over there will claim to be the fittest person on earth. But you know, if you hate fat people so much, why argue with someone taking the time to work up to a certain level of exercise, and encouraging other large people to do the same? It's only gonna help. I don't think the girl who is trying to get hired as a fitness instructor and banned because of her size, means to suggest to anyone that her shape and size should be the goal of everyone. I see it more as, If I am this big and I can do this workout, so can you! Come work out with me where there is no need to be ashamed. I don't think she is suggesting that everyone thin put on weight to look like her! It seems to me that you hate fat people and don't want people to be fat, but anything that might help, you are also against.

be real, no person in their right mind wants someone that looks like she eats bon bons while watching visions each and every day giving them fitness advice, let alone being the god damn instructor. fitness instructors are supposed to look 'fit' and be the ideal of what people are trying to accomplish. roseanne bar telling people to hop on a treadmill isnt going to be much of an incentive, especially with women. i would be surprised how many women would actually want a fat chick telling them how to get in shape.

Now, this is interesting. If you feel this way, you must believe fat IS genetic, when you have started this whole hullaballoo by telling folks, in an extremely punitive and hateful manner, that it is the fat person's fault.

Also, no matter what people look like, they are still human beings with feelings. If I said that extremely narrow-minded people shoudn't have children because it will just get passed down to them and in turn, continue the cycle of mean and hateful people in the world, and then I included you in that group, how would you feel?

no, im not saying obesity is completely genetic, i am saying that fat people will make shitty parents. since i doubt they stock healthy food in the house, guess what the kids will be eating as well? do you think the kids will eat vegetables and grilled chicken as their parents eat crisco topped with fritos and ranch dressing? plus even without food being an issue, do you think a fat, lazy, sedentary parent would present a good example for a kid when it comes to exercising and being healthy? no. not at all.

Oh, christ. We're back at DEFCON 4. Someone call the President. We may have to cancel the Summit.

ATFTFB: Ignore it all. You'll never change an inflexible mind.

p0ink: The more you open your mouth the less you disprove your ignorance.

 

[p0ink]

rockafella, with all your infinite wisdom you think you possess, could you kindly tell little ol' me, where and how i am being ignorant?

this bullshit of not liking a person or group of people making a person 'ignorant' is a load of pc propaganda. like if a person doesnt approve of gay people, they are 'homophobic' right? since when does disapproving of something mean you are afraid of it/dont understand it/ignorant? give me a fucking break.

and no, i have nothing against gay people in the slightest bit, so dont try using that for more fucking ammo.

 

[Gorlim]

he's not being ignorant, everything poink said is true. Its mean stuff but its the truth ;(. People starve all over the world while they eat all day long.
