  1. @jimbo @starlightbolt Guys, c'mon, just stop it. You're both being incredibly childish.

  2. @jimbo Look I don't know if you're obese or not. But I'm going to assume you are, since there is no way you'd feel so victimized and try to defend this sizeism thing so much. Look, if you are overweight and happy that's great I have a lot of fat friends and they are fine with it and so is everyone else! If you are unhappy about your weight and want to find some reason why you are that way, and try to get sympathy from others, then you are annoying and thus I don't give a kiwi.

  3. @jimbo Resorting to ad hominem arguments doesn't really help much either.

  4. @jimbo These sound an awful lot like arguments I hear against being LGBT, honestly. My sympathy.

  5. @jimbo Whatever helps you sleep at night lol. You are misinterpreting my hate though. I hate irrational people.

  6. @jimbo Lots of people don't see a distaste towards gay people or trans people as hateful either. (They tend to call themselves "Christians" or "conservatives".) It doesn't make their hurtful words any less hurtful. Just chimin' in to make an analogy for ya.

  7. @jimbo Where did I say I hate fat people? Are you reading someone else's posts and responding with my name? O.o

  8. @jimbo You can't compare being blind to overweight. IMO it's different to look down on someone that is overweight because of outstanding circumstances, than someone you see eating 10 cheeseburgers at Wendy's. As you said people are different. If two people ate the same food and exercised the same amount one my gain/lose more weight than the other, but that doesn't mean that other person can't lose weight.

  10. @jimbo I just read up on it. It seems to be a concept created by the types of people who are constantly feeling victimized. Sizeism is not the same thing as racism. where a person's race can not be changed and does not directly control aspects of themselves, a person's size can change and does directly affect things in their lives.

  16. @jimbo I'm rather sure many people are capable of dying their hair. Correct me if I'm wrong. Also, I'm blond and I really wouldn't care if someone pointed it out or even mocked it. I'm actually a little disappointed my hair is beginning to brown out.

  19. @jimbo You could go to France. People there are jailed frequently for hate speech. Like that one fashion designer...

  20. @jimbo I am aware of those things. I guess it's also not their fault that they eat terrible or don't exercise. There is only one very rare disease that I know of, that makes the body unable to remove fat. But I can assure you that it is very rare and not everyone that is overweight has it. But yes, even those cases you mentioned, a person can make the decision to lose weight, it just involves more work when those situations are involved. That doesn't just mean "omg I want to be skinny now" it means taking the time to eat right, be healthy. It's more like they are making the decision to eat healthy and exercise, which has a side effect of not being fat. The decision isn't choosing between being fat and being skinny, its the choice between exercising and eating right, or eating bad and not moving... being fat or skinny is a byproduct of that decision.

  22. @jimbo it is both. Each trying to equal out the other.

  23. @jimbo and with that, I end this with GOOD NIGHT EVERBODY!

  24. @jimbo I agree with everything you said here except the censoring-yourself part of it. The only honest way you can get people to not be offended it to not say anything at all. Ever. It's still their body, their choice, and their feelings regardless of what you say and if the person is being a dick then perhaps the community would deal with it properly. Dealing with dicks is a very good thing to learn how to do considering there are quire a few out there right now, so you should feel challenged rather than victimized. If it is actually harassment you could report it. But is there not a polite way to point it out? Like "hey, bud I'm a little bit concerned with your health, it's still your decisions and all, but here are some suggestions on how I feel you could have a better life." Is that unacceptable?

  25. @ponybis @jimbo It be best if you guys just cool it for awhile and forget the whole thing. Its hard to express one self through the internet with out the normal gesture or tone that you expect in a conversation. It's quite possible you both have misinterpreted what the other said because of the lack of tone.

  26. @jimbo Are you anti opinion as well? I don't endorse what you're saying I do, but I also don't like how you're saying "I can attack whoever I want, but nobody can attack X group of people." And you've been nothing but misinterpreting what I have said.

  27. @ponybis Whoops, relooking at that I also meant to underline the part where I said "in most cases," I never said every fat person can not-be-fat like @jimbo claims.

  28. @redenchilada If you have problems with @jimbo, send me an email and I'll bring it up with her.

  29. @jimbo WHAT?!? How did you get this from what he posted? 'people deserve to be made fun of if they are unattractive and have their pictures posted online.' He clearly said that people WILL be made fun of if they are unattractive. Just because he acknowledges this doesn't mean he supports it! And if you believe that some people can not help being fat, than that is your OPINION not a fact!

  30. @purpletinker Then I humbly request that you please get in touch with your good friend @jimbo, and ask if he could kindly not tarnish his good reputation by continuing to act like a complete #
