I meant to put this up ages ago, but never got round to it, so here it is:

How many times have you gone to a club or pub, paid money to get in, and then watched some fat bastad take up all the room at the bar?

It happened to me on New Years Eve, so I came up with a cunning plan. Fat people (and I mean REAL heffers, not just slightly overweight) have to buy TWO tickets, as they take up more space.

Surely it would work like that from a health and safety point of view. You can only have a certain number of people in a pub/club, and if half the people are real chunkers, then there is less room left for everyone else.


Thoughts?

I didn't say they took up hlaf the bar, I just said that they take up more then their fair share.

Anyway, if you go purely by height and weight it's ridiculous. Lennox Lewis is something like 6ft 3 and about 17 stone, yet he's hardly a heffer now, is he?

Let's see.

There's a guy in Fat Club who's 21 years old, 6ft 3in tall, and weighs just over 17 stone. They reckon he's heading towards obesity.

I'm 30, 6 foot 3in tall - last time I weighed myself, I was 17.5 stone. So I'm supposedly obese.

And I see no harm in "ripping overweight people".

Most humour is at someone's expense, and it always will be, however much the PC brigade try and brainwash us otherwise.

Did ya hear the one about the Englishman, Scotsman and Irishman...

How does that work?

A fat person isn't disabled. You can't compare the two.

That's like saying "Hey, you wouldn't take the mick out of someone with no legs, so don't take the mick out of someone who has a stupid haircut".

It just doesn't work.

Anyway, humour should have no bounds.
