TV Fatties
I started watching the new season of The Biggest Loser last week. Nothing much differentiated it from any other episode of The Biggest Loser I've ever seen except that somebody's grandpa passed out. Oh, and this season's group is particularly robust. One of them hoisted herself up onto a set of parallel bars which quickly turned into parabola bars. I know there is something horribly hypocritical about having weight to lose and making fun of fat people, but I can't help myself. And I figure if I do reach my goal weight at some point in the future I will have lost my window to make fun of fat people. Then I'd just be a jerk. But now calling someone fat is self-deprecating in a way. It's our N-word, fat people, enjoy that perk.
There's another fat person show on Lifetime. I'm not much of a Lifetime Network watcher, due mostly to my possession of a penis and scrotum sack, but this show looks particularly uninteresting. Has anyone watched this DietTribe thing? The cast looks like the fat Facts of Life. In fact, if it's not too late they should change the name to The Fats of Life. And have a theme song like:
You take the pizza
You take the hoagie
You take them both and then you have
Your afternoon snack, your afternoon snack
