Please don't mention Fascism. "Not that I condone fascism. Or any 'isms'. 'Isms', in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an 'ism'. He should believe in himself. John Lennon said it on his first solo album. 'I don't believe in Beatles, I just believe in me.' A good point there. After all, he was the Walrus."

I have no pizza to offer you, new friend. But perhaps you'd like to hear my tale about a certain half marathon? Hmmm?

I would be willing to bet the rest of you also get told all the time that you are too skinny. By the way I'm not one bit skinny. Maybe they've been right all along... they're normal and we're the wrong size.

Thank you for bringing up Ferris Bueller, perhaps the greatest movie of all times. As soon as we began debating "ism's" Ferris was the first thing that came to my mind.
Sorry to have contributed to the "political" part of this thread! I wasn't trying to start anything! (really, I know where I can go to rile people up on politics or religion. That's why I'm here)
