Dont waste your time crying or being hurt over Nicole Arbour's video. In fact, don't even waste a minute of your precious time to respond to it. It does not warrant a second of your time or commentary, not even your negative commentary. She is an ugly person with an ugly message and a callous soul and we will leave it at that and move on. She had nothing good to contribute. Fat people, ignore her. In fact, the world should just ignore her.

    thought it was pretty great myself. and i used to be a HUGE landwhale. more folks, including fatties, ought to listen up and take the medicine while they still can, even if its cold and hard to swallow.
    I didn't watch it because she looked like she'd be annoying no matter what she was discussing, but as I was reading the article about it, I thought "Who cares? It's just another 'look at me' video. Use it as motivation." Just because someone doesn't sugarcoat something or tiptoe, doesn't mean it their words don't have some truth behind it.

    the ones that are butt hurt probably know there is some truth behind it and thats what pisses them off. Example: They weigh 400lbs, they can get upset at her and lash out on social media, or they can hit the gym...they choose social media.

    She's Canadian? That explains why I never heard of her.

    Sometimes you have to listen to the message and not how it is presented.

    She has the right to her opinion as does anyone, and my opinion is that she's a B**ch. There are other ways to say things to motivate people than telling them how worthless they are. A lot of people got to be overweight because they ALREADY felt bad about themselves... so not really helping much.

    Was it trying to comprehend the magic of that statement as you were reading it in a thread about said chick that doesn't deserve a second thought?

    Pretty much, but I think I get it now.
    Check it out:
    The woman in the video said some controversial things that made people decide she was a "bad person".
    So now "good people" can come along and spit any sort of hateful remarks against her.
    Through some bizarre loophole in society that behaviour is apparently not hypocritical at all and in fact is A-OK.

    What she's doing is ridiculing, that isn't the same as; not sugar coating the truth. That's what makes this cruel instead of helpful. Bullies don't actually "care" about their victims, they only care about being superior & that is to mask their own insecurities, which really makes them inferior instead.
