Bitch, people didn't used to be fat.
Scruffy always gets a chuckle when he sees old ads for circus “freak shows” and people would pay to see the “world’s fattest woman”.
It was so unique back in the day that people paid hard earned money to see it.

Welcome to western society 2023.
"I'm morbidly obese. I don't actually like the way I look/feel (even though I will proclaim otherwise). But it is YOUR job as a society to accommodate ME, both physically and mentally, because I have ZERO self-accountability and desire to do anything to change my size".
Frankly, why shouldn't they feel that way when the media/corporations/social media gleefully proclaims one can be "beautiful" and "healthy" at any weight/size?
At this point the military should repurpose old C-130's and C-17's, and turn them into passenger planes for lard asses and losers who need fricking "emotional support animals" to cope with being an "adult". We can market the airline as "Noah's Ark". Giant fat people can have more room to sit as opposed to cramming the person who had the audacity to take care of themselves against the window. And people who need ducks, armadillos, weasels, etc just to ride on an airplane can find peace totting "noodles" in their lap as they fly to Denver.

People willfully process inconvenience and the consequences of their choices as discrimination

Was on a SW flight a little over a week ago, and they last 4 passengers on the full flight all looked that way and were bitching about not fitting in the aisle and having to cram in middle seats.
To their credit, they were slightly self-aware, and I overheard comments like "should have squeezed my fat arse in the middle of the front seat", "guess I should have bought 2 seats, 1 for each cheek"

I need to lose about 10 pounds and it makes me uncomfortable. I just can't fathom going through life needing to lose 200+ pounds.
It's fricking crazy to even contemplate.

I just think about the lifestyle I had to live to become a 40 pounds overweight college bro. Normal height people that hit the 350 pound mark must be regularly pounding McDonald’s with daily family skittles

This bitch is really complaining that obese land whales weren't in the plans for a city that was founded over 2000 years ago?

frick these wannabe victims. Society shouldn't cater to those who chose to be 300 pounds or more. Lose some fricking weight.

Society has an anti-fat bias, and you can encounter it anywhere.

Just came from being over there three weeks and ate my arse off in Italy, France and the UK. Came home and I LOST WEIGHT. The difference in lifestyle is so crazy I am having trouble comprehending it. Food is "cleaner" in content and prep, portions are smaller and (most importantly) you walk your arse off there.
My Garmin watch was hitting my daily step and calorie counts by 10am. I loved it. Just walking to the Tube in London and then walking from the stop to my appointments was more walking than I do in a week here and that's in one day. I didn't hit the hotel gym once because I didn't feel I needed to. I am seriously reconsidering how I exercise after this. My grandma used to walk for an hour a day and she lived to 99. There is something there for sure.

in euro sizing, an XL shirt = USA medium
form follows function and europeans are just shorter & thinner than the average american

Seat belts fit me just fine and I hate airline seats when not upgraded to first class.
They know those of us over 6’ will be digging our knees into the seat pocket in front of us. We have no choice. Our knees don’t detach. The airlines can at least make sure there are no bolt or screw heads in that part of the seat so we have a chance of getting comfortable. Every one of them has a narrow bit of hanging pleather covering a very rough surface with sharp points.
And American’s 737 jets are the worst. They cram an extra row in there and cut a little space across all seats to make up for it.
