Um, that night sounds pretty stupid and offensive to me too. What's your point?

That campaign was disgusting. How could it possibly help an obese child to look up at a billboard and see a kid who looks just like them posted as an example of someone who has disgustingly obese body that they should be ashamed of? There are a billion more productive ways to encourage a healthy diet; all that…

Andy?? What about April!!

What really bothers me about the 'obesity epidemic' panic is not that the rates of obesity aren't actually rising, it's that obesity is framed as a disease, not a symptom of a larger problem. American food culture is profoundly broken, that's true. And that leads to rising rates of obesity as well as more eating…

I got a message from a guy on OKc that just said "Hey. Are you sure you're not gay?". Which was confusing because if he thinks I'm gay why would he message me? I figured he was just trying to be helpful and stuff, but maybe he's like this guy and really wanted me to be.

But how will fat people know they're fat if we don't tell them? I'm only trying to be helpful when I yell "HEY FATTY FAT FAT, YOU'RE FAT!" at total strangers!

Sigh. This is all so eminently reasonable and there are about to be so many ridiculous comments.

Oh my god, this is just too much. He is too much sexy for me when he is in Mad Men playing an awful person I would never want to date, and is all clean-shaven and suit-ey and totally not my type. When he's stubbly and casual and giving adorable advice to teenage girls and being a feminist it is LITERALLY. TOO. MUCH.…

You know you fart in your sleep, right? How you gonna avoid that one?

Oh dear, it is wildly inappropriate that I just fell into a google-image rabbit hole of lusting after pics of her pre-transition, isn't it.

The next person who asks me why I refuse to consider ever running for office is getting this article emailed to them, with the note, "I can barely be bothered to shave my armpits".

Including gay people in an ad isn't "targeting" it towards them. It's not like a Gad ad that's selling shirts, featuring gay men, is implying that these shirts are for gay men. They're for men, and many men are gay, so it just doesn't make sense to only ever show them in heterosexual situations.

"You use Facebook in order to forget about personal problems". . .

In America, 'continental' is code for 'crappy'. It usually means a couple of stale muffins and gross plastic-wrapped pastries. Ain't no fancy-mini omelettes at the continental buffets we're talking about! That sounds delicious!

Word. I stayed at a hotel once with no breakfast, but free Champagne at happy hour. Totally superior. They also had leopard print bathrobes in all the rooms.

"I don't fat shame, I just think it's fat people's fault if they're fat". That IS fat shaming, dude, especially your blanket statement that "Not a single person on the face of the earth can't lose weight". Ever heard of hypothyroidism? Presuming to know the experience of every single person on earth is pretty goddamn…

Dozens of stomachaches into my high-travel career, I avoid the breakfast buffet and travel with a shit-ton of Clif Bars.

Yeah, I don't get that either. A lot of times I'll stay somewhere very schmancey-looking that costs the same as a Best Western but doesn't have free Wi-Fi or breakfast, or sometimes even makes you pay to use the fitness center. I'd rather pay less for more amenities. Doesn't make any sense to me.

I think I speak for many of us when I say that I have no issue whatsoever with dating a short guy, but a big problem with dating an arrogant fat-shaming asshole. You may be misdiagnosing your problem with the ladies.

This is only tangentially related I guess, but can we PLEASE PLEASE get rid of the concept of the 'dating marketplace' for ever and ever? Yknow, this whole thing where we're like "There are x # of women in the same social category as x # of men so all the women have to perform a calculation that will allow them to…
