Re: The Things You Hate The Most...
I had a colleague (actually a smashing bloke, but that's no excuse) who sent out an email to at least 15 workmates, including all of the company directors, which opened with the ominous phrase:
"I am very sorry to have to announce the very tragic news that......"
On reading on, it turned out that his cat had died.
There was no irony in his email, he really felt that we all cared that much about his loss. He has a few cats and, I kid you not, they have their own website with lots of pictures and a character description of each moggy.

Scrummy Mummy or Babe T- Shirts on people who could never be or ever been accurately described as either! I guess it could be ironic - but I doubt it.

Reminds me of an ex-colleague who rang in sick because she was so distressed and upset....at the death of her rabbit.

Oversize ladies wearing pink ski pants. Saw one such who suddenly decided to lean over the parapet at the Pitlochry Fish Ladder. I have been haunted by the memory ever since.
Beer bellies that fold over on themselves "hidden" (not) under tight Union Jack teashirts.
Bigotry.

Of course, I would never.

Re: The Things You Hate The Most...
Indeed. I can't remember the comedian that pointed this out.
But the truth is that fat ladies who wear a T shirt and leggings, must look down and all they can see is a fine pair of zeppelins.
They obviously think it's a good look.
What the rest of the world sees is what looks like a grotesquely flabby haggis supported by a clothes peg.
One doesn't mind the fuller figure, but this is not good.

Re: The Things You Hate The Most...
As a female who is portly, I object to this line of discussion - what about the men in the t-shirts or tops that are too small and too tight, thus riding up to reveal an acre and a half of hairy flab hanging over jeans that are belted too tightly? Are they not equally deserving of harpoons?

Re: The Things You Hate The Most...
I object to objections to this point.
'Portly' is another word for fat.
If one is portly, overweight, obese, fuller figure, put weight on cos one has given up smoking, ashamed of the size clothes one is in, 'breathes in' far too often or just plain FAT.....
Be proud of your lump and don't make excuses or DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
S'not rocket science.
I can't bear to see fat women eat.

And as this thread has now reached 31 pages, we have a Christmas version currently running, and I do not propose to rise to madoqua's bait, I am now locking it.
