how is "fat" even offensive? it's not any different than someone calling me a "tall" guy...

it's not like the guy wrote down "3 whores" or started cracking "yo mama is so fat jokes.." at their table...

Yo momma so fat when she goes to an amusement park, people try to ride HER!

I get referred to as "the handsome guy at the end of the table."

The ugly may find that offensive, but hey, if the shoe fits!

Yo mama is so fat, at KFC she asked for the bucket that was spinning on the roof.

only in USA, kingdom of good food:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Wah wah wahh wahh wahh

That would be the funny part.

here the manager would come, high five the waiter and leave again...

truth does hurt

Server Jeff may have done them a favor and shamed them into losing weight and changing their eating habits. They look as if they are heading to an early grave.

People have no problem telling others that smoke that it is bad for them, will kill them blah blah. I would love to see it be socially acceptable for people to tell fat people to put down the tri tip and 64 oz Coke because they too are killing themselves.

Obviously what the server did was rude and wrong but it is just funny how two of the biggest killers on the planet (smoking and being obese) are looked on in such different ways.

not sure what they are complaining about. Maybe its a hint they should hit the gym. They are fat after all...

50 fat girls :)

I was a fat kid, but an athlete. No one knew about carbs then. When someone called me fat, I beat the shit out of them. Even though I was fat, it still hurt my feelings.

I'm glad I was fat, it made me a better person. Anyone who has something different about them as a kid usually grows up with a broader perspective and a stronger sense of empathy.

Here, here Diomed. I was a fat kid too. I looked like Moose (from Archie and friends). No one dared to cross me. But I knew they were taunting me behind my back.

Not everybody who is and does get called fat on a daily basis is heading to an early grave... I'm technically "fat" but it is in no way affecting my health at all... Some people are just bigger, it's how it is.

Sad that years ago if you were fat you were considered a wealthy person and people looked up to you, being fat was a status symbol... Now you're ridiculed for your weight until you commit suicide and then ridiculed more saying "good, fatty was gonna die anyway"

Why not be the adult you are and just keep your mouth shut? So many kids would grow up healthier and lose their fat if encourage positively to lose weight and not ridiculed until they gave up on life.

Believe it or not, I don't care. Went in for a checkup because of health problems that run in my family and doctor said I was perfectly healthy for my size.

6'3" 280lbs.

The sad thing is that "calling it like it is" has been replaced everywhere with "what ever you do, don't hurt anyone's feelings" and everyone now lives in a little bubble of self delusion and denial because its not "politically correct" to point out the obvious anymore.

Maybe fewer people would grow up to be fat if the world was telling them it was unacceptable and that its a choice?

So now you can't call fat people fat?

Fat girl, tall guy, what's the difference? If it's true, why are you not allowed to say it?

I can imagine if a girl that is a bit overweight doesn't like to be called fat, but these girls are super fat, so why can't they be called fat?

3 fat attention whores.

You obviously don't understand how it works, so you wouldn't get it.

I am fat, yes.. don't deny it... I was a skinny child, I was put on medication that screwed up my metabolism which literally made me gain weight when eating because my metabolism didn't work right, even if I ate like a fat kid or a normal person... What am I supposed to do at 9 years old, start worrying that I'm getting fat and start exercising and lifting weights? Fuck no... That's not what's on the mind of a fucking 9 year olds mind.. And like good parents should be, mine were more worried about me being happy with myself than happy with what other people thought of me. So I got fat, above average weight, not harmful, just to someone who isn't overweight's eyes I am.

It wasn't until I was almost 25 did my metabolism start working properly again, and I lost 35 pounds without really doing much, yes I am working on losing more weight, I'm 27 now, but it's a matter of getting into the mindset. I am okay and comfortable with my current weight. Would I like to weigh less? Yes. But am I gonna die at 35 because of being fat? No... My doctors say I have a higher chance of being killed by a great white shark in the middle of the USA than I do of dying from being fat.

So am I supposed to just change everything about me just to please some ignorant fucktard who has a lack of intelligence that causes him to be rude and mean towards me and other bigger people?

Nah, because when you are out in public laughing at some guy who is fat and looking like an asshole, people see it and think you're a douchebag, all while at my size, I get random girls coming up to me, hugging me and say "you're like a big teddy bear".

Keep on being a douchebag, douchebag.:321GFY

Because in today's society this girl is considered fat:

Nice free advertising for cheap food

Depending on how much lean muscle mass, thats not necessarily obese. However, the women in the video are morbidly obese and offended at being called "fat"

i'm 5'9", 230 and 19% body fat. I've went up to 270, i've been down to 175. I never once thought about being offended if someone said "dude, you're getting fat". I took it for what it was, cut back on my calories and got on the treadmill and started running and start changing up my workouts.

The USA is the fattest nation on the planet and preventable disease has crippled the entire healthcare system. You'll never see me saying "hey man, you're morbidly obese, but its ok, thats just your personal choice". It's a personal choice to be obese and people should accept the consequences of their choices, particularly when they affect everyone else as well.

We need to stop the shit.

We need to stop telling everyone they're perfect just how they are.

We need to stop giving out participation trophies and telling kids they're special.

We need to stop heading down this path of churning out narcissistic, self centered assholes and start telling people like it is.


And here's some food for thought on the idea of not hurting feelings.

Who excelled as a group more after high school?

The fat kids, the nerds, the social retards or the popular/cool kids?

The people who were least popular and had the lowest self esteem worked harder. The kids who were the star athletes, fucking the cheerleaders all peaked in high school... because all they knew was how awesome they are and then got out into a world they weren't prepared to deal with.

Again, the topic is about 3 morbidly obese women, who are hurt at being called "fat", yet are statistically certain to live shorter lives because of that fact and because of their own gluttony.

She is definitely a bit obese.

But the girls in the video are utterly fat. Completely different situation.

You can still tell someone you're overall concerned about their weight, and not be an asshole about it.

Good: Hey, I'm genuinely concerned about your weight, want some help or advice on losing weight? I go to the gym x times a week, you can come along if you'd like.

Bad: hahaha look at fatty over there shoving handfuls of fries in his face, hahaha fatty fat fat fatass!

Sadly 99% of people use the second method over the first. Being a fat person what would your reaction be? Well fuck I'm gonna go join a gym right now! No, you get upset and use food as a crutch to make yourself feel better.

Curvy, not obese. Obese is grossly overweight, like health problems overweight. Learn the definition.

Killswitch reminds of of one of those fat girls on facebook that talk about how happy they are being lard asses and post those "real men like curves" pictures, etc.

As someone who has to deal with this day in and day out and that hears every excuse and rationalization in the book, i will tell you that's about as effective as telling a heroin addict "hey, maybe you should stop heroin".

No one changes themselves until they want to change. All that however, has nothing to do with the individuals choice to be morbidly obese and unhealthy. At some point, an adult is supposed to act like an adult and take responsibility for their actions and decisions.

It shouldn't be a crime to say "you're fat" - when its a blatantly obvious fact. Tom Cruise is short. I seriously doubt he runs away and cries every time someone says "wow, i thought you'd be taller". No one has the power to hurt you unless you give them that power.

You want to know how many fat people get picked on for sincerely trying to lose weight in a gym? ~0-ish.

How many obese people get picked on in a restaurant after downing 3000 calories in a single sitting each day? probably quite a few.

Being obese is a choice.
Part of the consequence of that choice is being unhealthy and being looked at by society as an unhealthy, gluttonous person.

We shouldn't be looking at society and sending they message "hey man, be very careful not to let the morbidly obese women know she's morbidly obese"

:2 cents:

Still doesn't make it an inconsiderate dick move to go up to someone and say "Jesus fuck you're fat" You think they don't know they're fat? Do you really need to keep reminding them? There's no benefit to it other than to be an asshole.

And to many, it's a very hurtful thing to hear day in an day out and doesn't help one bit.

Whether I was ready to change my lifestyle and lose weight or not, someone offering me kindly to help me get started or being encouraging is way better than "jesus fat fuck go lose weight".

Be proactive. :2 cents:

come on dude, putting "fat girls" in the order system, which happens to accurately describe the group, is not even in the same ballpark as: "Jesus fuck you're fat"...:2 cents:

Not talking about the picture in the original post, talking about the need to constantly remind a fat person they're fat, in general.

Fat girls ordering sodas and fries instead of water and salad and then complain about being called fat...

It said that there was 3 of them and it was a small family owned restaurant.
It could eat up all their profits :2 cents:

well they are fat aint they ?

you mean phat :) if your under 300 pounds who gives a shit? who's really happy being so thin your toy dog weighs more?

I agree with you, but people today are so cruel towards bigger people that if you do end up weighing even a single pound over your average weight limit, you'll get ridiculed and "reminded" that you're fat daily.

Listen...its the holidaze so I picked up a server gig to get some extra cash. It was a really busy night and I made a careless mistake in labeling my ticket to make sure I didnt mix up my tables. Opps sorry.

China may have 1.4 billion people, but I doubt they outweigh the combined residents of Stockton, CA. Being overweight is as American as eating a whole apple pie. And we're the majority folks, 67% of the population is either overweight or obese, the scales are literally tipped in our favor.

Say you shoot a porno and you show it to a friend. You cant see your face. He turns to you, Konda and asks, "Who's the guy with the 2 inch penis?" Since it would be true, since he saw it, it would be ok to say it, right?

How about "Super Hot"? Would I be fired? :(
