Fat People

Hey, I'm back...I know I don't blog often, but, whatever...

This time I'd like to talk about fat people. Now, right off the bat, let me say that I'm no little skinny thing, I'm fairly chunkified, but what I'm talking about is not the people who need to lose 10, 20, or even 50 or 60 pounds; I'm talking about you out there who are 300 and 400 plus pounds. Having worked at an orthopedic center for a year, I've seen so many freakin' huge people coming in to get their knees replaced--that's what I'm talking about. The ones who have bellies hanging down to their knees and have to use a Hoveround to get out to the kitchen for their 1,000-calorie snacks.

Now, being a vegetarian, I would like it if people would all stop eating meat and move on with the next step of evolution. However, being a somewhat rational human, I know that this won't happen soon, if ever, but I try not to let it bother me and I don't hold it against my meat-eating friends. What does get me is this: fat people eating meat. I think that if you're a huge fat load, then it should be illegal for you to consume the flesh of another living being. I mean, eating to live is one thing, but daily eating thousands of calories over what you need to survive and causing someone's death in order to do it is shameful and just plain wrong.

Now, I've been to a bar before where I've seen someone get way messed up and subsequently cut off by the bartender. I was even cut off one time when the bartender said I was ordering another shot too soon (I'd had a shot of Jack and wanted another one 15 minutes later and she told me I'd have to wait an hour...whatever, bitch). I think that restaurants should have this same rule. I think that if you waddle or Hoveround your fat ass into a KFC and ask for a bucket of extra crispy dead bird, the waiter or cashier should be required to say, "Buddy, I think you've had enough." If you want to be a huge, disgusting drain on society, then go ahead and do it, but don't cause the death of the innocent to get you there. I mean, come on, there's no meat in a Twinkie. Stuff your fat face with that.
