Fat advocates say Ohio anti-obesity ads demean children
CINCINNATI (AP) - A national advocacy group says anti-obesity billboards in the Cincinnati area are demeaning to overweight children and should be taken down. A new campaign from the local Center for Closing the Health Gap features outdoor ads that show heavy children pigging out on burgers and fried foods beneath the question, "Are we feeding our kids to death?"
The California-based National Association for the Advancement of Fat Acceptance says the billboards must go because they unfairly subject fat children to ridicule from others, instead of inspiring them to eat healthier foods.
But the head of the anti-obesity group says the billboards are staying. He says they're meant as a wake-up call for families with overweight children.
Are obese children getting their feelings hurt? Good. Stop stuffing your face with cheeseburgers and run around you lazy sacks of shit.
Fuck you. You aren't a protected class. You're fucking fat. Lose some weight. You're going to get diabetes and have heart problems. Because you're fucking fat.
I think this is bullshit but I pretty much think you should be allowed to offend anyone as much as you like.
People enjoy being offended nowadays. The only thing they like more than their Miley Cyrus and Jonas Brothers is getting up in arms about whatever bullshit is a hot button issue this week.
Deni just wants to distract the attention away from short people for a change.
Whenever I hear that song Short People got No Reason to Live I cry, on the inside.
I played that at a gig a few weeks ago and this idiot shouted afterwards "it was written by a short man!" and I said "randy newman was normal sized" and he said "no you're wrong it was written by paul abbot (or something)" and this went on and on until I said "look just fuck off alright?"
that story sort of tails off towards the end

How is your stosh these days mang.
I shaved it after the party. It was messing with my barbecue eating. The next party I'm doing a really thick cop/military mustache and I'm wearing a greco-roman wrestling outfit, complete with helmet and I'm shaving all of the hair off my body.

Like TFS getting banned?
No, exactly not like that. TFS getting banned was a product of Tube offering up the chance to have someone banned and years of his own idiocy coming back to bite him in the ass. Don't drag this into a thing.
Tough shit- fat kids got picked on constantly when I was in school, either they're used to it or they will be soon.
If they can bitch about smoking, which less frequently results in death than heart problems stemming from obesity, they can bitch about children who aren't in shape.
Nagging ads are hardly compelling anyway, they all strike me as a waste of time.

please form straight lines in front of the incinerators
single file, please
warning!
after the fat person before you has gone into the incinerator, please allow thirty seconds to pass before going in yourself
this will ensure that the incinerators are working at maximum efficiency
thank you
what
That shouldn't surprise anyone.
Yeah, we're no better, ultimately, but we can aspire to improve, can't we?
Can't we?
Oh.
I think you are stupid.
also known as NAAFA
which, oddly enough, is very similar to the sounds of their constant heavy breathing
I hope you're not serious.

I think I might rally around this cause.
Make a change around these forums and do something positive.

But genetics, you see.
I actually think it's not frequency, so much as....shall we say...hygenic difficulty after the fact.
Those folds can hold an astonishing amount of material.
also it's hard to wipe
