Mods = Big Brother to terminator

I like the direction they're taking the site. Reporting posts like terminators earlier in the thread works BTW

Was it a fat joke?
I hope it was something more severe than a fat joke...

I keep reading the thread title as "Fart Girl Costumes".


I really wish that was the actual topic of the thread.

I am hoping that is a joke.

"Black" and "N*gger" are very different. The latter is very derogatory and only serves to insult/disparage. No good comes from its usage.

To me it was. It made me feel worthless, disgusting and like a lower form of human being.

To me fat = the opposite of skinny. Both can be mean. It depends on how you take it. I think if fat offends you as much as the n-word then you have bigger issues....

And that right there is the reason that fat shaming is still perfectly acceptable in today's society. "It's not that bad" "It's their problem.. they need to have thicker skin" "They just need to man up"

And, yes, I did have bigger issues. That's what I talked to Thor about last night. The fat shaming makes people feel incredibly small and yet it seen as "no big deal".

perhaps that should have been in green, perhaps that shouldn't have been posted, perhaps I am frustrated with the thought process displayed Polak in this thread.................perhaps.
