Stop Staring at Fat People!

admin — Wed, 21 Jan 2009 07:00:02 +0000

So, this is going to be one of my rants!

I’m so tired of people staring at me. You’d think I would be used to it by now, but I’m not.

Don’t get my wrong… I can handle quite a bit of staring.

It’s just that every once and a while I think I’m entitled to a blow-up!

Let me just say this right off the bat… most people stare at me.

Most people use the typical “stare tactics”

1. They see me coming.

2. They look away and regain their composure! (acting like they never saw me)

3. They then find a way to sneak another peak.

4. Repeating steps 2 & 3 until I am no longer in sight.

Here’s what I hate…

When people just blatantly stare!!!!

To top it off, they can’t just enjoy the eye candy for themselves… they have to share it!

That’s when they nudge the person they’re with and point at me.

I’m glad I could bring joy into you and your friend’s life!

Lucky me. I’m a walking joy machine.

I don’t mind when kids stare. I know I’m huge. They don’t know it’s wrong to yell ‘He’s Fat!!”

or do they?

Well, that’s my rant on people staring.

I will post soon with some ideas on how I handle people who stare.

Things that I’ve done in the past and ideas I have for the future!

Finding the perfect plus-size costume

Tomorrow is Halloween and I have a costume party to go to. This always happens to me… I can’t think of anything to dress up as! My options are limited. It’s not like I can be just any character.

The costumes in the stores just don’t fit! No matter how much I look I can’t just go grab a costume from the local “Halloween shop”

Sure, I can get a mask, but what about the rest of the ensemble? When all your clothes are super expensive (I just bought a pair of “cheap jeans” for $50). Who can afford to get an outfit for just one night?

I know what you’re saying… go to Goodwill or Salvation Army… IT WON’T WORK! Fat people don’t give up their old clothes. (More on that in a future blog post)

So, I’m stuck without being able to buy a costume. But, even if I could buy a costume I wouldn’t look anything like the real character… I would be a HUGE version of the real character with disproportional features.

It sucks that skinny people can get “fat suits” and it’s funny.

When fat guys dress up as “normal guys” it’s gross. (But still sorta funny)

So, my last option is to find a character that is fat, right? Well, there’s not much to choose from!

Chris Farley – DEAD and way overdone. I mean “fat guy in a little coat” is a bit overplayed!
Fat Bastard from Austin Powers – No Thanks! I can’t tell you how many times I was teased with “Get in my Belly” after that movie came out.
A Biggest Loser Contestant (before the show) – Maybe!
Fat Albert – I’m white.
Santa – BORING!!! Plus, you have to deal with all these kids and what they want for Christmas

To be absolutely honest, what I want to be this Halloween is Peter Griffin from Family Guy. I could pull it off pretty easily, but what about the green pants? They are pretty crucial!

But, since I don’t have any green pants… I’m probably just going to do something pretty trashy (pun intended). I’m going to go get one of those giant orange pumpkin trash bags that you put leaves in. I’m going to cut holes in it and wear it. It’s cheap. It will fit. It won’t take much time… it’s perfect! I’ll post pics after the party!

Got any ideas for me for next year? (Without having to spend a ton of money)
