Fat shaming. Good way to start your stay here.

I was just observing a common theme through those photos...

(17,600 posts)WTF is with attacking people for their appearance? What website am I on?
(there is plenty else in those images to attack without going for appearance)

(6,930 posts)Davis issue. There is plenty to criticize without fat-shaming, but I suppose it makes some people feel superior in some way. I find it sad and indicative of their character.

Sublime satire (and not so sublime) at its best. And yes, George Takei, Wil Wheaton, and Denise Crosby show up for a Star Trek subtheme.
Highly recommended click-through.

It's like one of those games where there are two knobs and you try to tilt the board to guide a marble through a maze without it falling into all the interim holes along the way. God's trying to get all the nuts into one hole, but there are too many nuts, and too many interim holes for them to fall into.
That's my theory and I'm sticking to it.

And the question: What the FK does "Conservatism = fake salt" mean????
Buns_of_Fire
(17,183 posts)It links to a site that (I guess) kind of compares "conservatism" to that salt substitute that you can buy when your blood sodium is too high. If you've ever tried it (I have, back when my friends would keep asking me "Would you like some french fries with your salt?" , you'll know that at first taste, it SEEMS like salt, but it just isn't the same.
I GUESS that's what they're getting at, anyway. The only thing I really took away from it is that the author was influenced by The Kids in the Hall:

(6,930 posts)any one here call for limitation of the rights of free speech. You know they have the right to be there and say what they want, right? We do not want to limit free speech in this country. At least I do not.
