[kj] (Very OT) Bruno - Autism

[Brendan]

Can I test the waters? I put on some weight a while back when I couldn't go
to the gym for a couple years...perhaps 30 pounds or so. I noticed one day
as I was sitting down, leaning slightly to one side, I felt a *plop* as a
little roll of fat was birthed into existence around my floating ribs...as a
tall skinny type and gym freak for most of my life it was one of the most
disgusting, yet funny, experiences I've ever had. Relating it to other
people has been quite funny...does that make me bad for making fun of fat
people? Can I no longer do it after losing the weight...?

Not on my watch if physical and mental disabilities are made fun of. My
apologies.

Not that I've seen any of the said films (saw Ali G on Richard and Judy
once) but I'm with you on that.
If you're brave or daft enough to crack a joke in the wrong place at the
wrong time you'll suffer; but you have the right to do it.


I can't stand the idea of certain topics being taboo, where humour is
concerned. Fuck that. Either it's all okay or none of it is okay.
