Whoah... This comment was totally insensitive to the plight of whales, who are facing extinction and over-fishing problems.

But what if my grandmother is fat and stupid? Just joking. My grandmothers are all dead.

Check your goal hole. All answers lie within.

Wait wait wait.... why are we jumping to conclusions here? Why do we have to push our own agendas into the conversation without considering context? What *kind* of knife is it?

Skinny people smell like cotton candy.

I want to thank you for keeping the phrase "shut your pie hole" alive. I support that. Also, I love pie.

Sure, someone's online persona is only a fraction of who they are as a whole person. But if that online persona is in complete control of the person (i.e., we aren't talking about private photos or e-mail messages published online), then that is what the person is being asked to be judged on. This idea that "judging"…

Depends on your goal hole.

Kind of a tough one. What's your friend's goal hole?

Where is your rant directed? At the unnamed "many people" that look at you funny if you order low-carb? Surely you aren't ranting at Jimmy Johns. Jimmy Johns has an Unwich (no bread) option for every single sandwich they sell. I'd say they are pretty accustomed to the low-carb side of things. They made a mistake. They gave…

Quite true. It's why I registered the domain: http://www.everyonepoops.net/ I'm all about education.

Glory.

I heard someone saying they had tattooed on me, but they hadn't really said that. I misunderstood.

That story was awesome. Congrats on a great proposal story you'll get to share and enjoy for a long time. Does the honeymoon have to be where you "get legal"? You're already doing the fun part/celebration in your home town. Can you plan a trip that includes going through one of the states on your honeymoon? Or even getting…

Ideally, I'd get all my protein from food. But if I'm going for a set amount of protein, it's not always so easy. So I use shakes and supplements to get me there. I think it's a matter of convenience.

Really good point. Thanks for articulating that. Having worked in child care for a few years, I can say from experience your characterization about ADHD is consistent with my experience. There *are* kids who really need it. I've care for them. And there are kids that exhibit similar behavior occasionally, and the parents…

It's so much easier to ridicule, belittle or think less of something I don't understand. An open mind requires much more risk than a closed one. And risk is scary. So yeah, people often dismiss mental health issues - but I don't think they do it maliciously. I think they do it out of ignorance and fear. Of course, what I'm…

Why is your topic titled "I quit!!!"? Are you quitting the contest at work? MFP? I hope neither. Stick with it. You can choose to take the comments negatively or not. Up to you. It's not easy, I know. But it is simple. You can choose to take it as them giving you crap or being insensitive or simply teasing you as they…

Are you talking about someone responding about eating back exercise calories? Your OP wasn't very clear, and your follow up posts haven't provided any more details about the "snide comment" you mentioned. I wasn't sure if you wanted an answer to the profitabiliy of myfitnesspal.com, the level of medical expertise the site…
-
I think you being annoyed is you being annoyed - and perfectly OK. I think you saying something negative to your friend might be being a b*tch. I think either response is understandable. But only one is being a b*tch. I haven't decided yet what posting about it on the forum means.

The problem is your diet is disgusting. Or, as you say "borderline disgusting." You know the Disgusting Diet (tm) has a terrible weight loss success rate. You can have a disgusting diet eating paleo, low carb, pescatarian, vegetarian, vegan, kitten or twinkie. People can get fat eating almost anything, just as people can…

Best, most honest and most useful thing I've read on the forums in awhile.

I agree. I haven't consumed alcohol in many years. For me, the problem was more than just overindulgence, but you are correct to say that problems with alcohol stem from too much of it. As others have said, it's another form of calories and in moderation, can be fine for some people. In fact, it can be fine in…

But that is exactly the point of the blog post. It is simply pointing out that - fair or not - people DO judge you based on how you present yourself. And on the Internet, one of the only ways of presenting yourself is through written text. So the blog was asking "why not put in the effort?" It's not about assuming those…

I don't think that was a joke at all. Many people who learn English as a second or third or fourth language don't take it for granted and actually care about getting it right. They wouldn't argue that it's not important.

I would imagine that bunched up panties would be slightly uncomfortable, perhaps mildly irritating. But I never considered that as a weight loss methodology. Are you saying bunched up panties are effective in curbing McDonald cravings?

Not everyone thinks this way. It's doesn't mean you are wrong. Or they are wrong. It simply means you get to enjoy bacon cheeseburgers.
