Fat Bridget

Is it not ok to call someone fat nowdays? Cos I have a friend called Bridget and she’s a bit fat and everyone calls her Fat Bridget, not me, like, I just call her Bridie. But now she’s threatening to sue them all. And Scottish Andy is the worst offender - he keeps whistling that Laurel and Hardy tune now every time we go out cos she says she wobbles. I feel sorry for Fat Bridget but she doesn’t even leave any scraps on her plate in the Chinese restaurant for my chihuahua’s doggie bags like the rest of us do when we go out. Can she sue them? Would she get much money cos she wants to go on holiday to Ibiza and she says if she gets enough she might take me with her. smile

Oh. I meant to say HE says she wobbles. Not SHE says she wobbles. Anyway, and what do men think about muffin-tops?

When was it ok?

It is rude to call people names. Having said that, it is perfectly fine to give a friend a health warning.

In Supersize me one guys states how it is fine for people to chastise you for being a smoker, but it isn’t yet socially acceptable to say the same to a fattie. I think the quote is, “Why don’t you stop eating you fat pig!Don’t you know what you’re doing to yourself?” perhaps you could ask Birdie if she realises what she is doing to herself? If she is aware then you should probably leave her alone.

Presumably she is over 18 and pays her taxes so she is well within her rights to eat herself into poor health and reclaim all those taxes through hospital treatment as a result of her greediness.

Yeah yeah I know all that Barry, but can she sue anybody? She says if she doesn’t get enough money I have to pay for my own hotel and she wants me to say all the names of the ones who call her fat Bridget in court. I think they only call her that cos they like her cos they call me bouncy boobs and I just laugh. Could I sue for that?
