Exactly. Usually people like witty humor.
I hope I haven't offended you by poking fun at your weight...feel free to poke fun of my big ears in the future...fair is fair and I like a good joke.
Anyway, as you said, I would like to see where the REAL thread will go...I wonder if anythying new will pop up.
see, that's the thing, some people take even the slightest jab too seriously. Even if someone is joking about it, and the fat person KNOWS they are joking about it, it still hurts.
My sis is like that, no one, not even me or her hubby can joke with her about her weight.
On the other hand, you have Bardock, who can take it and dish it right back to you, which is a great way to be.

yes, but some do, and it was a remark made in poor taste. whats next, making fun of ones ethnicity?
Not judging the situation at hand as I am involved, I just think generally one can make witty and funny jokes about a persons weight that don't even have to be insulting, that's why I objected to your post. And I am pretty sure that there are people that make jokes about ethnicity. There is a difference between making fun of and making a joke though.
