    Without fatties working against manufactures in the power-weight ratio arena they may never have bothered making the Litre bikes we enjoy today.

    However... 100kg ball bags and 0.2gram brains may have held some wieght in the decision.

    Totally agree.

    In the same spirit of non-PC freedom of thought I reserve the right to think you a prat for judging people on physical appearance alone.

    Good for you at least I wont give you crap for having your opinion and voicing it. And if you look at the posts the only time I have judged her is for not wearing a helmet. I only commented on her size without making any moral judgements about her as a person.

    And you are judging me, hun.

    But the worst one ever was showing some visitors round the European Parliament and one of the bitches having a go at me for being so skinny and not eating etc etc. If I had known at the time that she was not a constituent of the Member of the Parliament and had not been as professional as I was I would have told the rude, fat cow exactly what I thought of her!!
    THis is just so unbelievable!!! I find it really hard to fathom to be honest. Did you slap them? I don't condone this behaviour at all and Damn those nasty fat people - btw were they actually fat? OR just not skinny?

    This is really a shock to me as my experience of actual *fat* people is that their size generally means they are the LAST one to cast stones at anyone else especially publicly about the way they look...unless provoked that is....sounds as though you've had the misfortune of coming across some VERY VERY angry fat people.

    Make your mind up? It's ok for others to have a laugh over fat people but not for fat people to have a go at you for being thin? Again I don't condone unprovoked verbal attacks at any time for any reason. I'm confused now...

    BTW - please don't paint all the generous ladies with the same brush. We are not all judging you for being slim nor would we bother attacking you unprovoked in public for it...infact some of us wouldn't even notice you except maybe to worry whether you would survive a food shortage ( in the spirit of not being too pc) Are we likely envious of your ability to eat like a horse and never gain weight? Probably most definitely but judging you for THAT...hell no - lucky you to have drawn those genes out the pond.

    PC correctness does not make people blind......
    Observation
    Stating a fact.
    She was fat.
    Simple as that.

    So HP per kilo and all that she was just riding a moped....
    Doesn't need a helmet.....
    Plenty of airbags.....

    Opinions are like arseholes: Everybody has got one, but that doesn't mean you got to air it in public all the time....

    I don't condone violence so would never slap someone. And to be honest I was way to shocked and upset to do anything, even defend myself. Even the fiance was really shocked and asked if it was an unusual occerence as he couldn't believe that people could feel they had the right to do such a thing. And no they were fat.

    I have never had a go at a fat person in my life and would NEVER EVER go and abuse them in public. I know how completely humiliated I felt and wouldn't want to do that to someone in front of other shoppers etc.

    As for the genes, it is only now that I am slightly older and have filled out a bit that I appreciate my genes a little more, especially now that I can wear adult clothes. It suck having to buy your clothes in a kids store or not being able to find clothes for work without having to pay to have them altered.

    Look at how the media helps to fuel the issue of slim women, you can only be a size 2 or whatever you guys have over there, if you don't eat or purge.

    And yes I would survive a food shortage as I could run the shops faster than other to get the last food ( un pc strikes once again)

    Typical PC rehash .....blame some one, any one....
    just do not take any responsibility yourself.

    Genes

    You eat more then you burn you gain weight
    You burn more then you eat you lose weight.

    If you can't be bothered with that discipline thats fine by me.......
    Makes no difference to me, but don't whinge about people who state the obvious.......
    It either doesn't bother you, or you change it.......

    Grow up

    Fuel the issue of slim women...you mean in relation to 'YOU should all be SLIM' or 'SLIM girls must all anorexics'?

    There is a huge pressure for girls especially young girls to attain to be as slim. Websites devoted to how to do it and do it well. My mates 6 year old has started to look at calories?! scary shit

    [QUOTE=Number One;1682462]School? Doesn't everyone get picked on for *something/anything/everything* at school?

    I got picked on for being a bully! I was bigger than most gurls .. (I wasnt fat then but I am now .. don't be hating on me people) I was athletic (gawd those were the days) I hung around with 'da maoris' so I was immediately targeted as a bully ..

    Even when I wrapped up a couple of gurls (yup my anger boiled over the cooking pot and I gave them the 'whats up buttacups') who gave me shit week after week calling me nigger! (Im Maori & Irish and was whiter than them! hahahaha its just when I opened my mouth I sounded like a real Maori lol) ... I got suspended (a couple of times) high school sucked lollipops for me (when I was there) and girls can be sooooooooo mean, bitchy hormonal bloody things .. funny eh .. I wasnt a bully at all .. but in that environment I ended up being one

    Important thing is I am definitely not a violent person now! but can certainly hold my own

    Im so glad they didnt see my 11 toes! Ohh but I was sooo good at maths!

    Yea we have all had our own experiences at school .. omg I used to loveeeeeeee MC Hammer then Milli Vanilli .. was so in love with those guys hahahahaha .. memoriesssssssssss .. in the corner of my minddddddddddddd ..
