Post by: Nash on February 01, 2005, 03:50:30 PM: I did't watch it either but my guess is that if you're fat, you get an F. If you're anorexic, you get an A. If you're chubby, you get a C. Etc.

Maybe they should just excute you because you don't have blue eyes and golden hair.

Post by: GRUNHERZ on February 01, 2005, 05:47:30 PM: Nutrition should be taught at schools, not this crap.

However one could say this law really isnt much differnt than grading PE classes, I know for a fact that fat out of shape kids god bad grades in our PE classes. They were essentially graded on their weight and physical shape.

Just don't come whining when someone expects you to pay for 2 seats because your bellybutton is 2 seats wide, and don't try to claim that you need special seating because your bellybutton can't fit into a normal seat.

There shouldn't be grades based on weight.....however there should be laws against fat chicks wearing anything but gigantic canvas muu muus.

Post by: Saintaw on February 01, 2005, 06:11:24 PM: O/T Information tibit:

"Van de Putte" in flemmish (Northern belgian language close to dutch) woudl litteraly translate in "From the hooker".

That is all.

Saw this on Airlines on TLC I think. Showed the trauma fat people go through trying to get an airline ticket. There was one particular guy on camera cussing up a storm about the airlines because they didnt have two seats left on his flight for him to sit. Funny line:
"I'm goin to the fluff'n entertainment capital of the US and you're telling me they don't have enough room. They should have 767s and 787s and whatever big a** planes available to accomodate all the people going in. But instead they have these G*damn Volkswagen Jetta airplanes that can hold like 20 people...this is outrageous" :lol

If you want to hear something scary.....look into the inocluations and vaccinations they REQUIRE that kids get nowadays. I'm not saying fighting against disease is bad but in order for the drug companys to make more profits they use aluminum and murcury dirivative to preserve it. In addition research some of the proposals for mandated mental health screenings. This may still be in the tin foil hat stage but alot of those that are against it make compelling arguments about "thaught police" type stuff being incorporated into the legislation.
