Angry The nerve of some people!!

Strange how it works now. There are so many people that don't use their heads!!

Ok, here's the thing. When I was dancing in the Bar Saturday night, these two young Barbie types were making fun of this larger girl and her fabulous dancing. Pointing and laughing, that sort of thing AND they were trying to include me in their horrid behavior!

I might be thinner now BUT I shamed them and I went over and danced with the big girl! We had a great time and she had some fabulous, sexy moves!!

The nerve of some people!!!

Terrible behaviour ! A few years back i was walking along the road when this pair of 20 something lads looked at me and one announced out loud "Obviously shop lifting at Gregg's !" (Gregg's is a bakery) They over took me and i so so regret not tripping one of them up !!! i was just so shocked that they could say something so mean so loud that I'd hear ! Some people have no compassion towards others.

I just remind myself it takes all kinds and that what goes around comes around.

There are obnoxious people of all ages and creeds out there. Unfortunately.

I've been mooed at for the simple crime of waiting at a bus stop.

But my favorite is the attitude of, "Well, if fatties don't want to be laughed at, they should put down the fork and lose weight."

Yeah, a lot of people have issues in their lives... smoking, drug/alcohol addiction, etc.. but being overweight is immediately visible, so it's easy for people to pick on.

Recently my cousin posted a picture of herself on facebook, she lost a few pounds and was pretty skinny. She said it was easy to lose weight because she didn't want to be a "nasty fatty".

What's amazing about her is that she was in jail for 5 years for selling cocaine, and had 5 of her 7 babies born addicted to it.

So sure, while my food addiction might make me a "nasty fatty" at least I'm not nasty on the inside.

Unfortunately we live in a superficial society, where looks and appearance are more important to many people than the quality of the person inside.

I have found that with being fat, people are surprised to realise there is a brain in my head and even more surprisingly - it works! I fail to see how being fat makes others think you are stupid, afterall, they are the ones that are ignorant!

Just today I was watching a Time-Warner cable commercial with a fit, trim guy making an *** out of a fat guy. It was supposed to be funny? I am sick of nonfat acceptance being okay and even encouraged. I think often times society mimics the media. Actually, I am thinking to cancel my Time-Warner account and go with another provider.

Some people who have had it easy don't understand that they are lucky. That is truly unfortunate how they acted...and if I were you, I'd have been infuriated. Way to go you for being the way everyone should be. And way to go her for shakin' it. I love dancing, and I don't care what anyone thinks! XD

Thighs-- Makes me think of an episode of Taboo that was on NatGeo last Wednesday that focused on Fat as a taboo in our culture. I recommend the episode.

One of the reasons I don't drink is because I tend to grow a set of dingle berries. I would have went up to those "perfect" (and I say that lightly) women and said something.

Attitude can make a beautiful person ugly and and ugly person beautiful.

GROWL !!!
