Fat People and Why They're Not Funny Anymore

iT occured to me last nite that there is one last taboo that No one is allowed to touch, mainly b/c the media and the government has told us it's wrong. iN a time when more people are speaking out about freedom of speech, why is it that we, the people, are limiting ourselves in such a horrible, horrible fashion? i mean, yeah, it could be construed as mean or some other shit like that, but god dammit someone has to speak up about it and i think i'll be the firestarter here.

Fat People.

Yeah, if you're mad already, you should probably stop readin' right now, yo.

Everyone knows that i make a lotta jokes, mostly at my own expense, but there are a lotta times when i wanna make jokes about someone that are blantantly untrue. Like callin' Chelsea a fatty when she had the preggars. Everyone readin' this won't know who i'm talkin' 'bout, but we made that joke often.

But i look around and i the obescity 'epidemic', like it's a virus that will slowly take over all of us. i'd look horrible as a fat dude, yo. Just lookit my frame. iMagine a stick figure with a gut, then you got me. My family is filled with fatties that are losin' all that weight and it makes me happy. Excites me in that they'll live longer and be able to chase a fisbee. Yay for them.

Here's my main problem, though...Most people treat this like no one can help it. i'M sorry if this makes me look like the biggest asshole in the world, but that's straight up bullshit, yo. 200 hunnad pounds overweight? Easier to lose than those last few pounds. One method of gettin' ridda all that excess seems to work a lot: Eat right and exercise. On a regular basis, like a ride a bike around everywhere.

Now, don't get me wrong. i have a certain limit on where i consider some one fat. When you can barely fit into your car b/c you can't reach around you're stomach, then you're fat. When you can't see you're feet while standing at ANY TiME, then lose some weight. When you hafta spread your buttcheeks for a fart to escape, then you got a problem.

All this does not apply to girls who are under fifty pounds over weight, like my ex. i use her as an example b/c she's not gonna read this and she's perfect for it. For the longest time, she complained that she was fat. She was 5'3" and a hunnad fiddy pounds. She wasn't fat, just had some fluff built up. Or, as Billie Joe would say, her sexy was built up.

This all leaves me with one final question on my mind: When did this happen?

And why can't anyone own up to it?
