*For being fat, of course.

The McDonalds Happy Meal toy discussion got me thinking about this.

Yes, I try to do it because no one else does. For some reason, our culture has evolved such that we can make race and gender and gay jokes all we want, but fat jokes are still off limits.

As gross as fat people are... I've never done it before. But then again, I don't make fun of people for anything other than being stupid.

If they're a female, and they have nice big boobs, I'd "laugh" at them by having an "erection".

No, because I don't care if people are fat.

Matter of fact, I don't care about other people much at all. Save for my wife and family, of course.

I'm trying to think of a situation where making fun of someone to their face for any reason doesn't make you a huge *******, but I can't come up with any. I mean you do mean maliciously right, not just good natured ribbing between friends?

I used to when I was younger. I'm not as confrontational now but I agree with foolmo, it's stupid that people make fun of each other for things they have no control over but it's taboo to say they need to stop going to mcdonalds.

Yes. They'll either get motivated or get sad, I don't care if they get sad, I want them to get motivated by my hate talk. They smell anyway. If they don't get motivated nor do they get sad and laugh it off, good for them, shows they have some dignity in themselves, but they are still fat.

Because being fat is usually considered bad, and as the result of poor lifestyle choices.

Well, if I walk by a fat guy going down the street, I often get pulled in by gravity and get stuck in a deteriorating orbit. I need to say something about it in order to get the necessary force to escape the gravitational well.

I'm never down with this, plus a lot of questions involved for those who just bash on fatties. For example, a friend of mine has always been fond of the "no fat chicks" slogan, he had like a button that said that and whatnot.

Of course now he has a hot girlfriend who's on the curvy side, and while I wouldn't say she's fat at all she's super hot, she feels of course pretty self conscious and not happy when he makes fun of fat people, etc.

And another thing about this, the way people are talking about fat people in this topic, I'd assume you really just mean morbidly obese people with a major weight problem? Because there's a wide range here not specified, and there are plenty of people who could be identified as fat that it seems very bizarre to think you'd be mocking.

And just to point out again, chicks who are kinda fat can be pretty freakin damn hot.

No reason to make fun of them, I find fat dudes are often pretty darn friendly!

no, actually I guess if I know the person really well I sometimes do but in a pretty harmless way.

wouldn't do it to strangers as I'd hate to make fun of someone for circumstances outside of their control like medication or whatever.

Maliciously? No.

I might tease a couple of my chunky friends in good humor, but I'm not going to call some random stranger a lard ass to his face. Though I probably will think "Wow, what a lard ass!" in my head. And this is why I come across as nicer than I actually am.

Until someone can explain it better to me, that's what I'm assuming is going on. Everyone in this topic is just walking around shouting insults at strangers, all the time.

Although I have to say, if it was really such a cool thing to do as some are trying to suggest, I don't know why I've never seen anybody just start **** with strangers for no reason.
