I called a girl heavy and she said I should die overseas

[SlowwHand]

I didn't say she was right. Look over there at those other guys. They're the ones that did it. Them.

I get why she got torqued about Apoc's comment.

It's because women are emotional and irrational.

What I don't get is why anyone here is getting torqued about it too. If Apoc is to be believed, it isn't like he made a Broadway production of her weight. He merely stated an observation. What I find bothersome is that people are berating Apoc but seem to be OK with the girl's comment that he should die in the line of duty. Last I checked, that wasn't an OK thing to say and far more harmful than noting someone's weight.

yea most girls dont like it. but if she's fat you think she'd kno that and not be offended because it's not like he said she was hugely obese, just heavy.
i'm not OK with her comment. she's insane. she just blew up.
there was nothing wrong with Apoc said. apparently she's sensitive about something that obviously did not happen overnight, or she was in a bad mood and got ticked off and blew up at Apoc.
either way to her.

Thanks for the support.

And thanks to everyone who called me Apoc instead of Apo.

[Kuciwalker]

Why do you need support, exactly? The woman is a loon.

[Apocalypse]

I don't need it. I am just being polite.

Just like you don't need people to pick up a pen you dropped or hold the door open...it's just polite and you thank them.

I've been around obese people all my life. Friends, family, coworkers, and especially members at the gyms I've worked at. Obesity has never bothered me in the way that it's something to laugh at, it bothers me in the way that I'm concerned for their health and self-image. My postings here were jokes making light of the extremely uncalled for girl's reaction whom I mistakenly thought was also the one Apoc had made his observation of. A comedian (Andrew Dice Clay? George Carlin?) once said there's black people then there's n*ggers. Whoever it was, his point was that in every group there are those who either comically fit the stereotype of their group or otherwise make their group look bad by their actions. Every group, every religion, every ethnicity has its "n*ggers" and as such those individuals within the group ought to be ridiculed. Their actions shame us all, not just their group. Had this just been about Apoc's comment, then he'd be a bit of a insensitive clod all by himself. However, this girl hit it out of the park by wishing for the death of one of our military personnel in the line of duty. To me, he has every right to attack the girl that said this to him, but just leave the heavy set girl out of it from this point on.

post #188: Apo is in the military? So that must be what "die abroad" is all about...

The girl has obviously a few (many?) pounds too much. She might eventually lose them if she really wants. She still greatly overreacted. Some people are easily trolled.

Apocalypse on the other hand obviously lacks subtlety and tact. Life will eventually teach him, no question.

[Ecthy]

He also lacks self esteem. I can't but comply with Spec's estimate that the girls he gets must be in a really low league.

[Apocalypse]

My league is high, thank you.

Honestly, why women bother with feminism when they still consider the worst insult to be about their looks ?

Where does your need to ridicule fat people come from then?

Confident people dont feel the need to do that.

Maybe he doesn't need it, he just makes it anyway?
