 Posted: 10/29/03 - 19:25 Post subject: more stupid food comments
So I'm doing my accounting homework in the school cafeteria, lost in thought, and I hear snickering to my right. I glance over and this seriously overweight girl is pointing at me and laughing. I asked, "Can I help you with something?"
"Your dinner - that's FUNNY! Do you have something against real food? You eat like a little kid!"
I look at my dinner. Sandwich of fat free turkey, slice of muenster, and lowfat wheat bread. Peas & carrots. Fat free vanilla yogurt. 5oz apple juice box and 20oz water. Small chocolate chip granola bar for dessert. Sure, it's very Brian Johnson, but healthy and satisfying. I then glanced at myself.
I look at HER dinner. French fries. Chicken fingers - double helping. Potato chips. 20oz Coke. Cookies for dessert. I then glance at her, smiled, and said, "Yes, LITTLE being the operative word."
I don't think she got it.  Why must this stuff always happen to me?

That's funny. Her menu resembles what Little Nolefan's like to eat. Adult cuisine? I.Think.Not

The only time I ever even comment about someone's food is if it intrigues me.

People often belittle that which they do not understand.
She obviously does not understand tact, healthy food choices, or small portions.
But, it still begs the question: WTH???????

I would've said: "Look at your plate, then look at the scale, you f@t@ss."
If your going to make fun of something of mine, it will be returned in spades.

I probably wouldn't have even said anything to her, just shot her a bemused, condescending, wicked face if she was pointing and laughing.
Oh... Two of my favorite words were used in this thread... operative (meaning functional) and intrigue.
