The "lard-ass community" to which you refer is not a mere subset of American society. And soon it will have become anything but a minority, so The Proud, The Thin, The Self-Righteous!! (present company not included, I'm sure) will just have to get used to it, as I have many years and miles ago...
(BTW, it should be noted that fat people make great shields.)
And being jammed into my seat, unable to exert my warrior skills to slay the enemies of freedom, because that lardass has blocked all access to the aisle.
