I think fat people should be expected to pay a fat person tax, to make up for the burden they place upon society. It should be assessed by buoyance tests that measure your body fat, and collected through your health care provider.

I think its fair that fatarses are forced to either A) pay for two seats on a plane or B) pay a higher fee because of the added weight load, if pressed I would go with option A because the seats are small enough as it is, and even regular sized people have a hard time not bleeding over into my seat.

there are a lot of people who say they're feminists but really are just misandrists looking for a way to justify it, setting back the feminism movement by years and years each time they open their trap

Mocking others is a constructive thing to do, because if all it takes is a group of people making fun of you to make you second guess your actions, you clearly don't feel strongly enough about what you're doing and would be better off doing something that you truly love rather than seeking the approval of others.

Ace of Baes

Windmillslayer is a shameful liar. Back around the time of her goldmined party thread, she was throwing personal info around like candy trying to get people to pay attention to her bullshit. During this time she sent arnie a photo of her drivers license, and told him all sorts of info about where she lived because arnie used to live in the same area. After countless insults from Windmills he said one sentence in irc about seeing her house on google maps, and she left immediately to start some poo poo in nite crew. She wasn't scared, she jumped at the chance to drag arnies name through the dirt because internet popularity is just that important to her. She claims the address wasn't on the drivers license, but I'm looking at my NJ provisional drivers license from when I learned to drive, and that info is absolutely present. Either way, there was no stalking. Looking up an address that someone willingly gave you on google maps and then making a dumb joke about it isn't stalking by any stretch, and certainly isn't grounds for calling someone a pervert who stalks minors.

DCT, you can gas this, probate me, let people make some sick burns, whatever. I just think it's lovely that my good friend is now known as a creep just so windmills could get more internet friends, and I want people to know what actually happened.

Tomatoes have been a staple of culinary greatness since their cultivation. Your opinions are not only unpopular, but outright wrong in an objective, quantifiable way.

every tomato that you eat is made up of atoms which used to be part of dinosaur poop, so...

I don't think I mind the taste (which I'm still not too fond of unless it's with other things, like on a burger) nearly as much as the texture and feeling of eating raw tomato

like eating a cherry tomato and biting through the skin and having it flood tomato juice and seeds in my mouth just feels nasty man

pig slut lisa: irl is good

i look at it this way: i love tomatoes. tomatoes are great. what a good snack from the farmer's market.

some people don't like tomatoes. i don't understand. but then again i don't like octopus tentacle and other stuff that many people enjoy. so i understand the concept of "not liking something" even though the fact that that "something" can be "tomatoes" makes me slightly nervous and sweaty palmed.

but the important thing is that, when fewer people like tomatoes, then there are more tomatoes for me. and then the price of tomatoes goes down. so i can have more tomatoes for the same money. so really, when you look at tomatoes from the perspective of economics, we're really just a big team working together to give everyone the best tomato experience, whatever that means to them personally.

here's an unpopular opinion

i think many extremist right-wingers actually have something wrong with them mentally because of how detached from a societally normalized or natural set of human behaviors and expectations you'd have to be to hold those positions
