OFMG I SAW A SNORLAX TODAY ON THE HIGHWAY!!!

[Snazzi]

Welcome to America

Australia is just as bad.

Does it really matter?

Really? I'd ask my overweight history teacher to come here and write a brilliant essay to you explaining the problems he gets, but too bad he doesn't speak English.

But from what I can see;

Sweating faster
Smelling more
getting tired faster
disturbing others in seats
inability to jump
being made fun of
more dependency on other people
hard time getting through small places
weight problems in elavators, park rides, etc...
and last but most importantly, health problems.

I mean that's all I've observed from others but I'm sure there could be more.

Oh in regards to functionality, health and general mobility issues there are definite problems that come from being overweight and these issues really can't be ignored. But the nature of this thread was mocking the physical appearance of someone who is overweight. So the basis of my post refereed to the image side of someone who is overweight. Does it really matter physically if they are overweight? If they are content with their appearance then that's all that matters, not everyone cares too much about what others think of their appearance.

I do agree with you that there are health implications that occur by being over weight. My sister is very large and had some issues with her first born baby (luckily it all turned out ok, I have a beautiful nephew and niece) and I know she will have other health issues in her life if she doesn't fix up her weight. If this thread was about the health implications of being overweight I would of posted a different post, of course. But this is more in reference to simply appearance. While I myself wouldn't be too content with looking overweight, many people don't care and see it as some what of a petty issue. More power to them I say.

I dunno, to some it doesn't, to some it does. I don't really find it appealing to see someone learn over or lean back and have like 3 rolls flop out under their shirt... if anything it's kinda nauseating...

If you're big, act like a big person. Don't wear tight clothing or smaller clothing in an attempt to feel better but it just ends up making ur flab roll out of some screwed up places.

It's like a skinny person wearing baggy clothing. Looks stupid/disgusting.

u know why fat people smell right? the sweat beads accumulate in their folds of fat

ugh, disgusting, why would neone want to be fat (barring any medical circumstances)

nest time when you see someone who is super-fat
try to hold your loling with your girlfriend until you are away from him\her

[inky]

Not like they can chase you anyway. Laugh it out.

[Psychedeelic]

that's incredibly lame... I know some people deserve their fate of being really fat cause they eat alot, but there are people who are ill.. it can happen at any age to instantly become a whale and there's not much you can do about it. laughing at people and posting it on a forum is much beyond lame and shows that you're ptobably not older than 13 y/o

If you laugh at someone with an illness, the irony makes it happen and you might get laughed at one day too. I promise I'll laugh hard at both you and your girlfriend when it happens and I'm going to post on a gaming forum LOLOLOLOLOL 2 snorlax LOLOLOL.. oh wait or you'll most likely dump eachother anyway

oh and someone explain to me, what's so funny about seeing a fat person? sad yes, but what on earth could make you laugh about it seriously?

[joke]Because they walk like penguins?[/joke]

[Snazzi]

Lols. Garanteed everyone here knows that some cases are serious, and nthing can be done about them, and that it is quite sad.

I agree laughing at fat people is lame, even worse if you're laughing at them and they know you are laughing at them, that hurts. On the other hand, most people (those without illnesses) have a choice to diet and exercise or not. I have very little sympathy for those that just ignore it, and hope that it goes away. And to those that "don't mind" being fat, and have no problem with it. What is more important in life, junk food or health? So you don't mind having a high blood pressure, risking getting cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and then passing this lifestyle onto your kids? I have nothing against overweight people, but most people have a decision.
