    That it's totally ok to ignore your wild kids in a restaurant as long as your are talking about and judging the overweight family sitting next to you.

    Some one really did that? I want to read this article, I could use a laugh at work!

    The funny thing is, she only mentioned that her kids were being loud. You're just assuming that she was ignoring her kids. I'm tempted to ask what reason you're doing that, but I'll just go ahead and call you a hypocrite for judging her like that.

    Sorry for changing the subject. Back to the tread.


    How were they tending to them/not ignoring them when she and her husband "couldn't take their eyes off the fatties"? Oh plus she openly admits to despising her kids even a good day. I doubt she was oogling over them.

    Adding "bless his/her heart" before an inflammatory statement is not proper lube IRL...just FYI

    No but it is proper etiquette when talking trash about people.... in the South. :wink:

    Never admit that you don't eat back your exercise calories!
    Also, everyone thinks they're all knowing when it comes to weight loss.
    Oh, and - STARVATION MODE! (this is completely misunderstood by most yet they'll shout their misinformation from the rooftops!).

    Don't admit that you do either... or that you count cleaning as exercise (because your activity level is set to sedintary).

    If you and I disagree, then I'm right.

    If I don't get the answer I want, then I'll ask the question again in 10 minutes in a new post.

    If I post a question and don't get a response in 30 seconds or less, I'll bump my own post while commenting "Hello?" or "Anybody out there? I REALLY need help with this"

    If you add "Please Read" to a Topic title, people will.

    People will post to have their age guessed and then get offended when the guess is 5+ years over their actual age.

    That posting pictures of yourself in your underware and/or bathing suit is acceptable, as long as you are already fit. If you are still overweight, the moderators will remove your picture and tell you it's obscene/ not family friendly.

    TRUE story.

    Fixed it for you. The friends of mine that has gotten their pics removed are far from overweight (love you jules)

    Thanks - but it wasn't broken, and didn't need your fixing. I was posting about myself, and the pictures I have posted before. I have PLENTY of friends that have pictures of them in underware/bathing suits. But when I posted a pic of me in my bathing suit - a two piece - I received an email from a moderator telling me what I had posted was obscene, and I had to take it down.

    TRUE. STORY.

    Now, I don't know how "far from overweight" Jules is, or what pictures were removed, but I'm telling what *I* have learned today. Post your own lesson, and get off of mine.

    That people are silly enough to ask what counts as water. Um....last time I checked two hydrogen + one oxygen = Water. Add to that and it isn't water any more outside of whatever trace minerals you'll find in water anyway.

    err, are you trying to imply that tea or coffee or crystal light changes the molecular makeup of water into some other ...thing? Because..... because..... I....

    Never mind. I'm just gonna walk away.

    But I am happy for your friend Jules. I guess I'm the only one that is obscene in a bathing suit. Thank YOU for pointing that out to me.

    Another thing the forums have taught me is that the mods are clearly always wrong. ALWAYS

    I have received emails from the mods too (obviously not for the same reason) but like an adult I didn't blamed it on others and owned up to it. Just because your pic got taken down doesn't mean mods have it out for overweight folks. Just something to think about

    You're welcome

    A former model and a former hand model are two different things.....If you were a hand model you were not a model........hand models can have busted faces.....models can't.

    Can the models have busted hands though?

    That's a great question. I would venture to say yes. Most people aren't looking at the hands anyway.

    If they "asked" you to remove it, it might not have been from a real moderator. There's been some bogus messages floating around from phony mods telling women to change their profile pics.

    Real mods just delete offensive photos.

    My point was - if bathing suits are "obscene", then they should be considered "obescene" for EVERY MEMBER OF THIS SITE. I never said I blamed others, I don't complain about the emails I get from the Mods lashing me for using every foul word my mind can come up with - which I have gotten plenty of. But, I appreciate you calling yourself and adult, and calling me a child.

    And Thank you. For being a %&$!@#^ Troll.

    Let me rephrase. They removed it, and TOLD me that if I posted another picture like it, that I would be "removed" from the site.

    Actually, until EVERY PICTURE of someone in a bathing suit/underware is removed, I stand by what I said. Either put MY picture BACK UP - or take them all down. It CANT be okay for one person to do it, and NOT okay for someone else.

    ...the "above you" threads are primarily married people who want to be told they're hot
    ...far too many people come here for permission to do things they know they have no business doing, i.e. "i can eat cookies and lose weight right"
    ...people will make a new thread before they go back one page and see that the thread has already existed

    that is all today.

    the "above you" threads are primarily married people who want to be told they're hot
