Can't say thin, hateful and mean spirited is looking all that much better.

Being fat and ridiculed for it seems like the sport of the day. People still think derogatory fat comments are acceptable. Let's see some of them substitute the word black or Jewish to their comments instead of fat.

Let's watch them run for cover.

"Black" or "Jewish" doesn't spill over into the next seat.

"Black" or "Jewish" doesn't require extra fuel to cart around the countryside.

Someone was giving me a hard time because I am bald. Actually this happens all the time.

My retort is that I did not chose to be bald. I do chose not to be fat and obnoxious.

Growing up, most adults in my family were overweight and smokers. I decided not to be either. For 90% of people, being fat (like smoking) is a PERSONAL CHOICE.

Yeah, but at least we smokers are getting a brief respite. Just wait until the taxes start...
