oy. If it’s an extreme glandular condition, i don’t know. If it’s Bernie in Accounting who eats too many potato chips, then he deserves to be made fun of. Screw him.

Just like when colored people absurdly demand free stuff; these idiot demands from fat people will only serve to harm their cause.

Well, I’m not overweight (by much) - but I self-identify as obese, does that count?
