Most of your "jokes" tend to be in poor taste, but that was just beyond the pale.
Even as a joke, comments like that are disgusting and very telling. Especially when the girl in the picture Neph posted isn't fat by any means - being larger than a size 2 doesn't equal being fat. However, thanks to attitudes like that, when I was my smallest back in high school (I was the same size as the girl in the picture), I thought I was horribly overweight even though really, I was just fine and I actually looked great.
So, basically, thanks a lot. Stuff like that does a great job of making me feel like complete shit.

For you (and everyone else on here) to realize just how messed up and harmful attitudes like that are.
Shaming women because they don't fit the ridiculous beauty standards set by society (and that are incredibly difficult, if not flat-out impossible, for most to attain) is wrong. Full stop.
I dont think Blax was to know, as he said it was a joke and as for "stands in soceity", most of those are ignored and twisted today anyway to the point they dont matter unless your young. You get people who prefer some things in the opposite sex that others would roll their eyes at and soceity is the same. My closest friend prefers larger women by far than smaller and I wouldnt look twice at a stick insect myself.

That, and people using the word gay as a synonym for bad. So f*cking stupid, elementary school came and went, nothin' wrong with being gay.
I wanna skull f*ck everyone who misuses that word while they stare at me with the other eye and realize how thoughtful I am because I went straight for their eye socket so I could leave their mouths free to say: "This is totally gay."
EDIT: Ironically a sock just made a thread in the OTF entitled Gay, FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-

kinda funny in a sad way...

You are so unbelievably wrong, it's almost laughable.
Here's a hint: If you're not a woman, don't go talking about how things that are sexist against women "really aren't that bad", because you're guaranteed to be talking out of your ass.
And as I've pointed out before - saying "it was a joke" doesn't excuse anything.

I really hate when people use "gay" to mean "stupid", as well.
