    @scribbles: yes. not that i justifies potshots at meghan but then again, chelsea chooses to ignore dumb crap like this, whereas meghan is making a fucking spectacle of it to grab (not really that successfully?) the newscycle for herself for a time.

    @SeaBassTian: um, no, I don't think the rest of us are seeing the comparison. Both are beautiful women but about 250lbs separates one from the other. I assume your comparison is based on looks. My apologies if you were speaking about their personality.

    The feud has escalated into violence. This weekend, Coulter and Ingraham kidnapped McCain on the pretext of going shopping for Spanx and took her to the Cheesecake Factory, where she was force fed an entire Dulce de Leche Caramel Cheesecake.

    @if_i_only_had_a_heart: Laura's jealous. She's a second-stringer; a slightly less batshit Ann Coulter, without the brand recognition, and now her small share of the limelight is threatened by a younger, curvier version of the template.

    I am confused. Was my elementary school the only one where one kid would be sitting on the swing, and then another would sit on their lap facing them with their legs poking out through the other side of the swing, and you'd swing like that?

    In other words, the swings were holding up 2 kids, no problem.


    Also, is there a broken swing epidemic, or are we just trying to get the little fatties self-esteem destroyed as early as possible?


    There is a possibility the "2 girls, 1 swing" scenario described above was a weird proto-lesbian thing unique to my school. But I kind of doubt it.

    I've started going to gym regularly and find fit people just as disgusting as fat people (granted, I go to Crunch). Sweat pouring off of everyone while cleaners run around wiping up the sweat off the walls, floors and disco mirrors.


    Everytime I look down the row of treadmills, I just see a bunch of puffy red hampsters.

    The little fat kid's revenge comes on the teeter totter when his or her tonnage vaults the skinny kid to the upward teeter totter position and the fatty promptly bails out. Hilarity and bruised coccyx for everyone.

    Blaming or shaming a 6 year old is wrong. Now, shaming the parents senseless for fattening up a kid, I have no problem with that. Genetic cases aside, you can choose to ignore the health scare issues, you can choose to have no willpower, you can choose to be slothful and make me pay for your diabetes treatments, because on paper at least, you're an adult capable of making adult decisions, but when you force that on your child it's a form of abuse.

    @BaconCat: Thanks you! It's not the kid's fault. Don't make the kid feel guilty when he/she's in one of the EXERCISE areas. Find some way to shame the parents. Ads that start of nice and sweet, then end with one killer line.
    "You are a good parent- here's why la la la (details- child proof outlets, etc). So why is your kid FAT when you know it will shorten his life span?"
