You've gotta be kidding me, assholes.

Are fat people: clearcutting the rainforest, dumping pharmecuticals into our drinking water, constructing and marketing the gass-guzzling automobiles?

@gungasnake,

Well, once nationalized healthcare is in place, we can legislate caloric intake.

@H2O MAN,

And yet, in spite of Gore's extra pounds, you still lack male genitals. Very interesting.

Which posters enter what tags is easily trackable, as are the negative / positive marks on individual posts - not that I, personally care about anyone so stupid as to waste his time marking posts up or down. Besides, it ruins the site's entire policy of tagged topics of potential interest to advertisers.

But it gets hilarious when the subject of fat people comes up in any context - the stupid posters who are also fat go berserk; tragi-comic, really:

@High Seas,

Um, so, you can't determine who is fat and who is not over the internet. I hope you include yourself among the ranks of "stupid posters."

LOL - truly very funny. Technology and you, Gargamel, never had the least overlap. Smile
