TatorTot 44 Posted November 2, 2014 I was just reading an article about people that hated Black Friday and one of the responses was this: "Can you even imagine what people in other countries must think of our ridiculousness? People that don’t have enough food to keep their kids’ bellies from aching, watching an overweight house wife shove her fat behind to the front of the line to grab six discount deep fryers? It honestly makes me nauseous." What the heck? UGH! Talk about making someone nauseous............LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
haleytrim 244 Posted November 2, 2014 So we are supposed to stay home and not get bargains because we are obese. Why not just extend it to not buying presents for our children and grandchildren. Maybe we should not be allowed to participate in any Holidays or sales events at all. Well I've got NEWS for the author of the Black Friday article. It is not by luck or chance that I live in America and have access to participate in Holidays and sales events or anything else I see fit. My great grandmother (at 16 years old) sailed by herself from Sweden to Galveston and cooked and cleaned in a boarding house for the rest of her life so that she and her future family could live in a country that allows even FAT people to pursue happiness!! Sorry for the rant, but that bit of trash was wrong on so many levels! Nobody is going to make me feel guilty for living in America!!! Ok, I'll put my soapbox away now.

gowalking 10,790 Posted November 2, 2014 Just more examples of 'weight hate'. This is the only discrimination that's still socially acceptable. I guess it's fine to buy deep fryers as long as you don't look like you cook with one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Miss Mac 6,262 Posted November 3, 2014 OK here goes my first rant........The person who made that comment must also be a female hater, a housewife hater, and a Southern fried cooking hater. Sounds like the mean girls of Hammond Morton High School Class of 1970. I haven't gone back for any reunions because I never liked you hateful joy-sucking bullies the first time around. Rant over.
