As in what the fuck. That seems like the most painful/mean way to go about promoting your "gym". You might as well just say "Look at how in shape I am you fat fuck!" Some people make me sick.

Yeah, the guy is a total piece of shit. He's counting on the notion that the people come to the gym because they hate themselves for being fat, and want someone to confirm the worldview that nobody could possibly treat them like a human being until they are skinny. Unfortunately, he's found enough people like that to make a living.

The armchair psychologist in me would like to point out that the people who seek justification for their mistreatment of others really hate themselves most of all, and try to bring others to their level of misery so they don't have to be alone in their suffering.

There is SO much wrong with the attitude behind those ads (I made it to the "beer" one before I closed the page in disgust) that I can't even figure out where to start. But I'll try. First, the idea that attracting a man is THE MOST IMPORTANT THING OMG is offensive to females everywhere. Believe it or not, guys, women have other things to do, and other things going for us, that don't involve your penises. We aren't just sitting around waaaaiiiting for your "cum"pass to decide our direction is "north". Amazing, I know!

Secondly: I know a lot of fat people. Few, if any, of us sit around eating all day. As a matter of fact, many of the fat people I know eat less than our skinny counterparts (myself included, most of the time). NEVER have I sat and eaten an entire pie right out of the tin, and NEVER have I lounged in bed sloppily stuffing my face with cupcakes. I don't know anyone who has. I don't end up with my ( ... )
