      Someday, the guy sitting at the desk kissing that girl will be buried under an avalanche of other falling fat kid videos.

      I have to say, even as the OP, that site is kinda mean-spirited. What's up with the focus on the fat?

        At a primal level, we resent the amount of resources they use. Also, we see in them ourselves.
        Therefore we point the finger and laugh as a way to diffuse our primitive resentment, and personal insecurities.

          Fat people have always been funny.

          Except Louie Anderson. He's an unfunny fat fuck.

            I hate it but I can't deny trix has a point; when I see a really obese person it sometimes makes me angry. I look down at my wasted limbs, shrinking, feel the knot of sick tense *lack* in my fucking bones, and my eyes narrow. I'm sure in a lotta cases it's a medical problem. I'm sure in a lotta cases that proper prep and handling could render food for five to ten people.

            I am not proud of the sentiment, but it's definitely there. I think what I see as "obese" is different from most folks' perception of it, though.

              Kinda reminds me about when I lived through some degree of poverty, and I'd be hungry and couldn't afford food so I'd look at pictures of anorexics and feel better...

              Wish I could do a fat transfer from the obese to you or somethin, Loki.

          I think that's giving human beings both way too much and too little credit.

          We Homo Saps are smart enough to know that fat people aren't stealing our food even on an unconscious level.

          But we will take any excuse to give a hard time to those of low status, and make ourselves feel like we are not bad people by rationalizing it: "They are Children of Ham" "They are extremely dumb." "They are lazy" etc.

            I'm pretty sure it's actual wrath I'm feeling, when it happens. I don't point or jeer or think "you disgusting slob" or anything like it. I just feel sick, weak, hungry, and then really, really angry. It takes a serious case to set it off and a context as well. I don't seek to justify or excuse it; it is what it is.
