She should not be allowed to ride. She'd scare the children.
THAT’S what she embarrassed of? SMH
Truth hurts sometimes lady.
Rid yourself of shame. Lose weight fatty cakes
Bag holding.... okay. Maybe while waiting, you could do more bag lifts. Try maximizing how many bags you can lift with lots of repetitions. Do this every ride, and try again next year.
Don’t cry to me because you can’t fit in the seats.
Hop on the Fatty Fatty Bumble Atty!! Must be ______this wide
Imagine the jokes we’d be telling if she went to Sea World instead.
>>> She said overweight people should be a protected class. <<<
What?
Cue the tiny violins....
“It’s somewhat humiliating to have to ask for an accommodation because of one’s weight — ”
Is it humiliating enough for you to put down the cheeseburger and hit the gym once in a while?
That, and the fact that obesity is unhealthy are facts of reality that should motivate one to lose weight voluntarily rather than have the government force one to do it. That is the way it is supposed to work in a free and rational country.

I watched the video of the TV interview. My initial reaction at the headline has been reversed. In the grand scheme of things in this country, she’s not overly fat. Clinically obese? Certainly. But nowhere near the median when you go to the mall or the Walmart or the Golden Corral or a Carnival cruise. I think the park f*cked up. She and her daughter were wearing all the Harry Potter shite. If Universal banned all chubbies and chubbettes how much revenue from the sale of Wogfarts bling would they lose?
But she’s not embarrassed or shamed to tell the whole world about it on the evening news??
Why is everyone dissing this Woman? People always complain when a Overweight person is seated next to them on a Plane.
This Woman realized that her size could cause another Guest some discomfort and the Ride Operator should have accommodated her request (if this story is factual).
It's called engineering. If she's above the safe weight for the ride, then she is being protected when they keep her off. Or does this oversized snowflake (would that make her an avalanche?) think all rides should be engineered for a buffalo, even if that over-engineering triples the cost for normal, healthy people and reduces ride capacity, thus more than doubling the wait time for those who can already safely ride.
The obesity problem is epidemic. Unfortunately folks just refuse to admit it is a problem. Preachers won’t “go there”.
IMO, three things are compounding the problem:
Bad diet: fatty foods and soda pop
Bad lifestyle: sitting in front of the tube for hours
Disrespect of God: you respect God, you respect the body he gave you, and try to take decent care of it.
I’m too big for most of them. I would have taken the gift card as a discount for one of the excellent restaurants in the area.
My second grandchild was born March 12th of this year.
My son sent me pictures he had taken of me and I was stunned at how I looked. Not good. Too much winter weight. I’ve put myself on a diet and am now walking everyday.
Lady, do what I did. Use this as a wake-up call to get healthy.
Don’t expect the rest of the world to change to accommodate your weight problem.
