I never threw a punch, and suffered because they knew I would take it.<br />The "lazy" tag people put on the obese isn't fair. It's not true for the majority...if anything, morbidly obese people work harder---because it takes so much more energy to move.<br /><br />Great post my friend,<br />SeanSean Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07973189725254566966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3823908020431638884.post-15974066991262496052010-03-15T12:44:25.971-04:002010-03-15T12:44:25.971-04:00I would have loved to see your sumo response in ac...I would have loved to see your sumo response in action!Andrew is getting fithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12509663563205981548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3823908020431638884.post-89373680367387566432010-03-15T12:34:51.160-04:002010-03-15T12:34:51.160-04:00Well, those people will just have to eat their wor...Well, those people will just have to eat their words if you ever go to your hs reunion.

My best friend is almost 500 pounds, so he thinks since he's bigger than me it's okay to call me fat. <br /><br />Just the other day I said I felt bloated, and he was like "Caitlin, bloated? naw you're just fat"<br /><br />It's hurtful, annoying, and it would not be okay to say something like that to someone with any other disability.Caitlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17877527781642480386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3823908020431638884.post-80620932127009084272010-03-15T11:21:35.970-04:002010-03-15T11:21:35.970-04:00Awesome post, Tony.

But that doesn't excuse it...it would have been very hurtful to me too. <br /><br />I used to live in Japan and would often get the sumo comments. It's hard to have a clever comeback in Japanese.<br /><br />I also agree that it still remains okay to tease people about being fat. Even politicians do it. I think that it is also "open season" for teasing Christians, without anyone being called on it. It is a shame.<br /><br />Again, great post!Big Clydehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11139621880727963169noreply@blogger.com
