I am an insomniac.
The kind that prowls the house at 3 in the am and scares the crap out of my poor mother.
So last night, in between doing my best Night Prowler impression, i decided to get on Facebook, chokora the heck out of people’s walls and hopefully bore myself to sleep.
Now i have ALOT of Facebook friends. I personally know maybe a third of them. Don’t look at me with your judging eyes…I’m a philanthropist. I accept all friends requests. (Except if you have a name like Candyland McSexy iceCream TupacBitch Wanjiku. That’s where i draw the line.)
So as i was up to my elbows in my nocturnal Facebook ransackings, i saw that one of my unknown friends had put up a note.
I opened it.
It went something like ‘fat women object to being made fun of, but can call thinner chics skinny bitches. We have feelings too!’
Boo-freakin-hoo.
Poor skinny girls. It must be so hard, fighting off the male attention.
And having no trouble finding jeans that fit your snake-like hips must really suck. Poor things.
How about not having to unbutton your pants every time you have a hearty meal? Ain’t that a bitch?
Not getting made fun of..being called a whale/hippo/buffalo/woolly mammoth, that blows, doesn’t it?
Sorry…no sympathy here. Try me next week, when I’m not feeling like a bloated woolly mammoth.
I have hi-5′d this post….we are now dancing around a witches brew…join us,wontcha?
You forgot having to choose clothes just right so that the rolls are covered. No damn sympathy EVER!!
Its just an image thing isn’t it? at the end of the day you are who you are and all the blabber ( or luck there of) is just what you want people to say about you when you are not around. Associate weight with what would kill you if it wasn’t right like diabetes, heart disease, cancers of the reproductive system etc. etc and also conditions like infertility have great influence from a woman’s weight. Stop crying about not finding fitting clothes coz that’s just sad and I have no sympathy for that. As the methali goes ” Mla kwa pupa hadiriki kula tamu, kwani mwishowe huwa msiba wa kujitakia na kama msiba wa kujitakia, hauna kilio. Its literal meaning sums it all up, and this goes to all women, STOP EATING FOOD THAT MAKES YOU FAT!! Then maybe you can have better things to vent about.
Do the words ‘tongue in cheek’ mean anything to you? GEEZ.
Grow a sense of humour!
