An ex of mine worked at Starbucks for a few years. The morning drive thru would get 6 A.M. requests for mocha frappuccinos with cake pops blended in.

There's a huge difference between calling out some cretin who thinks there is no scientific proof to back exercise and someone who may actually be heavy and find themselves being shamed even if they are already dissatisfied with being fat. What's so helpful about shaming the later?

I have a friend who was fat. He didn't want to be fat, but he was fat. We decided to take action, so we fat shamed the fuck out of him. Was it mean and distasteful? Probably. But it got to the point where he wanted to be like us non-fats so he took action. He lost 70 pounds, ran a marathon in a respectible time, and became obsessed with being healty. After some time he came out and told us that he did it because of our fat shaming, and he thanked us for it.

It's been said a million times, but there are very few people who are fat who can't un-fat themselves. Some may have to work harder than others. It's the people who have fat enablers, and no one to tell them they look like shit. It's not people like doctors or people trying to sell shit that gets a fat to lose weight. It's the people who truly care about the person, and if it means they need a good fat shaming, so be it. The other option is death. Fat people should be made fun of. They should be rediculed. They should be tormented. In all but rare cases, they should be discriminated against. The stupid fucking internet allows for things like fat support groups, and fat blogs, and general sympathy for fats. The more this continues, the worse it will get.

I can definitely appreciate that reply a lot more. Believe it or not, I do agree with you for the most part. I was more concerned with some of you guys going the way of the Romans with this thread.

I don't think anyone really wants to send fats to the ovens.

I knewwwww that was coming.

Fats yield more candles. It just makes sense in this economy to make candles from our fats so we can save electricity and also reduce our dinner budgets.

They have to take extra precautions when they cremate obese people because the fat burns hotter than normal.

holy shit I read most of that article and only now realized anything said "fatshion" biggest humble-brag in the world, isn't it? I can't be attractive because then people are too attracted to me shut the fuck up


sort of inspired by the Idget/Crypto exchange: I think there are a decent number of post-fats in this thread. I was pretty chubby when I was 12 and it sucked, almost entirely for the social shame. I never had to work to get into shape (viva growth spurt) but I certainly worked to stay in shape subsequently. I believe that fitness is an important personal responsibility and I think the obesity epidemic is one of many symptoms of a shitty, short-sighted society that has been programmed to look for cures instead of means of prevention because the former are that much more profitable. there are many industries working to keep people out of shape while keeping them dissatisfied with that state of life. I am sympathetic for the fats since the impossible body image propaganda is certainly damaging, but ultimately it's not as damaging as this "fuck everything and eat 'til you die" backlash. let's remember that doctors have no power to get these people to own what they are doing to their bodies. maybe the big-scale social shaming is evil, and the smaller-scale shaming (is there a more positive way to phrase this?) could be beneficial? just rambling now; I'll shut up.

Oh, for fucks sakes you fucking fats, maybe you should try bringing some nuts and fresh fruit to the beach.

[How Are Mortiis Goatse?!]

It's not uncommon for fats to congregate around sources of more fat.
