look at that white one oppressing the others.....

I'm not sure if you're serious, but here is one reason (I see that others have already talked about just the fact that some people would prefer a male nurse):

I think there is a general push to recruit more people into nursing generally.

So if I'm out running in the rain early in the morning and I encounter another runner and feel like giving them a thumbs-up or similar because not letting the weather stop you from running shows a level of determination that I respect, it would be patronizing IF the runner is fat, but not if the runner is skinny.

I wanted to save the world with a donation of my pretty blood, but I'm just too thin!

Being artificially kept alive with tubes and pumps and shit...

Can we please call it a trend? Because I want to declare myself trendy today.

I hope people don't protest his funeral, exactly, but rather have a really nice picnic nearby. For their own sake, just to show that there's plenty of happiness to go around.

My two best friends and I went on vacation when I was at my heaviest — 220 pounds. They were a size six and a size 12 with healthy BMIs. The difference between us is that I lived in a city that required me to walk to get to public transportation. I didn't own a car. Those two didn't.

I was afraid it was just me! He's just so magnetizing! Ugh, put me in that room with Frank, Claire, and Meacham anytime.

OMG OMG OMG! I get to post a clip from A Prairie Home Companion and it's obligatory!

Oh wow, I seriously thought this was going to be about her Claire Underwood interview.
