I thought fats owned up to the word "fat?" I thought they think of it as nothing more than an adjective, without any negativity? What happened to that? Make up your damn minds!

You know what I'm getting sick of? Not only do I have to have my eyes assaulted by pictures of fat people, but the fucking lazy, space-padding style of writing that all these blogs and shitty magazines are using. It's like fat for text. Why in the fucking hell are you posting a picture with text that says the same goddamn thing that you just said in the previous paragraph or picture? It happened multiple times in one single page length!
I am absolutely outraged by this disgusting comment by a person who is a ‘magazine editor’—someone who has the ability to make a positive impact rather than a judgemental and totally inappropriate one.
Little does @lastheplacemedia know about our lives or health and this is exactly WHY I choose to be a curve model and refuse to accept behaviour and comments like this. Let’s use this to empower the curve movement and fight for body diversity and equality.
And fuck that noise about not making a positive impact. If she were quoted and believed, that would be a far greater impact, maybe saving people's lives when they don't get fat and make a mush of their organs and connective tissues.

Especially postmodernists who use word bloat. If a writer uses postmodernist terminology like "discourse," they're smokescreening to pretend to be smart. High-information-density writing doesn't have
When taking the AP World History exam, we were explicitly instructed to avoid smokescreening, where word-vomit is used to cover for when you don't know what you're talking about. We were told the graders give high scores to bullet points with facts and low scores to gramatically correct smokescreens.
Guess how the top-rated commenter responded in an AskHistorians thread asking "when did modern liberalism separate from classical liberalism?" Long fucking paragraphs of smokescreening to say something that only takes one sentence: "classical liberalism and left-liberalism had common roots." At no point did the reply mention names, dates or events. An AP World History grader would have had that mothefucker's ass for breakfast.
And the /r/AskHistorians commentariat are people who supposedly have degrees. Useless bullshit degrees paired with lazy thinking that wouldn't fly in a programming or discrete math class.

"Her explanation was that she hates spammers. She has been let go.”
How dare she hate spam. Fire her!!
Even if she hadn't commented on the "curvy" moocow's weight, tubbalub would have turned any criticism into alleged fatphobia. This is all well and good for the fatass, she gets to reeeee and play the victim.
Here's hoping the shitlady editor moves on to a better place where she's actually respected and allowed to express her opinions.

Editor said it was her 'intern' that wrote that. Pussy.

Yeah the good old digital mob coupled with shitty 'journalism'. Haven't seen one posted for a while.

LOL. If you say "Amelia Stubbs" aloud, it sounds like "Amelia's tubbs," which she is, and it can also sounds like "Amelia's stubs," which is how you will describe her legs once her feet are gone. This is how I know the universe is a shitlord.

Women don't aspire to this, and most men aren't into it, either. It's not a good ad, period. Even for people who are into the "curvy" look, the sweet spot is somewhere around Hayley Atwell or Marilyn Monroe sized. So probably a 6 or 8.
Smart people aspire to and want to be around people who look like they take care of themselves. Slapping on makeup and doing an overly dramatic, soap-opera-esque pose in your photos is no substitute for backing away from the table now and again.

Didn't Marilyn Monroe's cute white dress have to be let out at the seems and sewn onto a modern size 2 mannequin? Don't believe the propaganda, she was "curvy" in the literal sense but I don't think she was a 6 or 8.

I mean, I don't understand how we're sizing shit these days. She was literally curvy. Hayley Atwell is someone who the heroin chic models look at as "fat" but who has real curves/is attractive to nerdy dudes and probably hovers around a 6.
