I firmly believe in Fate, and I don't react when my neighbours are dicks

I firmly believe in Fate, and I don't react when my neighbours are dicks
I'm a polyamourous ethically non-monagmous bisexual cross dressing swinger - you going to judge me on my choices?
Good point Sir and well made!l‘m guessing that not many on here are qualified to comment.![]()
I disagree.**** me old brown boots this thread is a right wrong ‘un.

OMG......here we go. People being offended on the behalf of others and tut tutting.Whilst I agree that she was commenting on something she knew nothing about, I don't think fat shaming her was required - I don't think shaming anybody for anything is required. A better approach would have been to question her knowledge on greyhounds and have an intelligent argument with her rather than completely knocking all of the confidence out of her and effectively bullying her. For all you know that might have been the first time she'd had the courage to get on a horse, you knew nothing about her in the same way she knew nothing about greyhounds.
Tut-tutt............I still don't think that body shaming her was the way to go, that came from pure anger and not thinking and was a knee jerk reaction. Shaming anybody for anything is out of order as far as I'm concerned. How would you like it if somebody shamed you for how you look, things you do or the life you lead? You never fully know somebody's situation unless you're very close to them - you know of this person and her reputation but you don't actually know her. How would you feel if she'd gone home and slashed her wrists because of your shaming?
Some of the riding fraternity here seem to think they own the place --- riding along public right of way dropping horse $h1t in the paths. There is a small wooden pedestrian bridge that is constantly being repaired because people ride across it.It may not have been clear but when I said I saw red and did the "poking" I was not actually aggressive in slightest, I was actually quite calm but others can describe aggression however they like. Looking back I do not regret what I did , I could quite easily done a lot worse. If other people want turn turn the other cheek that is their prerogative.
As a side note, we have very many horses trotting up and down my road and generally there are no issues whatsoever, most of the riders are friendly and cars generally slow down and give a wide berth apart from the odd entitled mercedes driving pricks![]()
You know as well as I do that 99.9 percent of over weight folks have no health issues that affect their weight at all....and about half the rest are lying when they say they do. It's lack of will power, self restraint and self respect that do it. I bet if you offered most of them the chance to be slim tomorrow with no effort they would jump at the chance.....proving that being fat is not really how they want to be. I love chocolate and fast/takeaway food as much as the next man....and I do put on weight because of it.....but when I start to notice it I do something about it....usually eat less and run.....but I'm recovering from knee surgery at the moment....so no running for me. I feel fat and uncomfortable when I'm a stone over weight.....so no one is going to convince me that anyone is really happy and comfortable to be 5 stone over weight....struggling to move and puffing with any real physical effort. And when I'm paying for their health care when they end up in hospital due to the strain on their heart or other issues that gives me the right to have my opinion.Seriously dude, not every fat person is lazy and greedy - you have no idea if she is fat because she ate all the pies or fat because she has a thyroid condition for example. It's not necessarily her choice and that should not be assumed. Even if you are just fat because you like eating pies and don't care about the associated health risks that is no reason for somebody to judge you, it's your choice which should be respected.
Indeed and the reverse is the truth - their weight affects their health.You know as well as I do that 99.9 percent of over weight folks have no health issues that affect their weight at all....and about half the rest are lying when they say they do. .....................
Gosh, this is still rumbling on, 4 pages, brilliant, can't wait for the next episode. poormansporsche, your readers demand, you get yourself out with these dogs again & wait till she turns up.
This is better than Corrie. Must get out more

But obviously if they really are happy being morbidly obese (which is fat enough to be actually causing harm to their bodies and its organs....with for most people is about only 5 to 6 stone overweight)....that of course that their right......but I bet if they were honest that would be a very tiny number indeed!
