I will apologize to you Carlene. there was NO malicious intent by any of the posters I can assure you. It wasn't done in that vein. The very same can be said about Fatboys. Cept they don't glide around in spandex pants on their roller skates, atleast I haven't seen any around here dressed like that. I'm sorry if you're mad. Maybe all men are just idiots...do you think?? s.kuteman
I think I have tears in my eyes. From laughing so hard. Sick, sick, sick people. I'm about 5'11" and about 130 lbs. My entire life people have made fun of me for my build which I have as much control over as the fatties. So we all must just grin and bear it. And if it really bothers you, you have to try to change it.
Just a note though, my husband is on the heavier side and he doesn't keep me warm. He thinks I'm toasty when I think I'm freezing. So he sprawles out on top of the covers and I'm freezing underneath. I think you have to find someone the same build so you can both be comfy at all times.
Actually , I probably should have Never started this thread with the "subject matter" that I did. Sometimes the devil just grabs my fingers and won't let go. My "kinda" devil is in the venue of Flip Wilson which the younger folks on here won't remember unless you're atleast about 45 or so. I believe you can have both Ethnic comedy and references to all the various Body types of comedy Without being Mean Spirited and nasty. There is Never a justifiable reason to Demean a specific person or a specific reference to an infirmity that afflicits people and is just mean in its obvious tone and delivery. All my references to "fat girls" are all generic in nature , hopefully and were never meant to hurt , or atleast that is what i was hoping for. s.kuteman

That seems to be universal. My wife is always cold. My mother is always cold. My sister is always cold.
The only females I know that aren't always cold are my cats.
same here, like I mentioned before we all have "large" loved ones and would unload on anyone who poked fun at them. It's like a joke between friends, right?
It had me rolling, as it did everyone else, when I first read through it.
Okay, I'll fess up - the tears rolling down my cheeks were from laughing, but being teased as being a "bean pole" as a kid keeps me more sensitive to the feelings of others. That comment by "skuteman", (Cept they don't glide around in spandex pants) had me rolling. We had a girl that worked for us and on Saturdays during tax season, she'd come into work with a waist-high shirt and those shiny spandex things. She was 5'2" and at a minimum, 330 lbs. That was the grossest thing I'd ever seen and one of our partners had to step in and let her know that it wasn't appropriate attire for the office, even on Saturdays.
Believe me, I appreciate the humor in most any joke, I just don't think a public forum is the place to tell some of them. Now come on down to Florida, hang out by the campfire and Steve will most definately keep you in stitches. I only remember one joke and it's one I can't post here. *evil grin*
Almost forgot - Size has nothing to do with heat. I'm very hot blooded and so is Steve. We keep the house at 70 with all the ceiling fans running. No one likes to hang out in my office at work too long because they claim I work in a "meat locker" - I keep it soooooo cold. I love it!!!!
