RANT: I wanted to punch his face.

I was jogging with a friend today (and before I go any further, you have to understand that I NEVER jog in public, always stay inside on the treadmill, so this was a big step for me). So we were jogging back and we live on a fairly busy street, there's this guy with two girls walking in front of us, as we pass them by we hear the guy sarcastically say, "well THAT'S very attractive."
Totally just pissed me off, I mean how rude do you have to be? I legit wanted to go back and punch his face.

    As the saying goes "some people deserve a high 5, in the face, with a chair", that guy is one of them!

    Wow. I just sat here with my jaw dropped for a few. Sorry you had to hear that. I go running 3-4 times a week at a popular park here in Houston, and i'm sure my booty ain't no spectacular show but I always wear headphones so I don't hear any comments. What a jerky thing for him to say.

    That's digusting!! Unfortunately in my experience that sort of thing is all too common. I think its why I get so riled up when people claim that people never dare say anything rude to to/about overweight people. I have a list of events like that as long as my arm, people can be *kitten*!!

    You should have turned around and thanked him for showing others just how ignorant one *kitten* can be....What an *kitten*.

    Maybe he is old fashioned and was offended that you weren't in a kitchen somewhere barefoot and pregnant?

    You silly new-age girls with your hopes, dreams, and self-confidence.
    You're making it difficult for a**holes to manipulate you.

    Just keep going back, and everytime you see him, smile. Make it a creepy smile, or a psycho smile, or a sweet smile, or whatever you feel like...or maybe do a couple of each.

    People being healthy and happy deserve more of the sidewalk than that ****. :)

    I'd be very tempted to retort something like, "I'm working hard to get rid of my extra weight, but I'm terribly afraid you're stuck with your stupidity!"

    my motto: if you didn't say it to my face it isn't about me. Unfortunately you just have to ignore jerks like that. Sorry you had to hear that...but as you said in your post...YOU PASSED HIM!!! be proud of yourself!!
