Thornton Melon: [television commercial] Hi there. Are you a large person? Pleasantly plump? A little on the hefty side, perhaps? Well, let’s face it: Are you FAT? When you go jogging, do you leave pot-holes? When you make love, do you have to give directions? At the zoo, do the elephants throw YOU peanuts? Do you look at a menu and say ‘OK’? Well, now, you can eat all you want, because at Thornton Melon’s “Tall & Fat” stores, we’ve got you covered. That’s right. Fine woolen, and woolen-blend suits and sport coats, in all the larger sizes - husky, stout, extra-stout, and the new Hindenburg line. And for you ladies we have caftans, muumuus, and our own exclusive A-frame in all colors and patterns. Yes, we have miles and miles of fabric. So take it from me, Thornton Melon, if you want to look thin, you hang out with fat people.

There are a million reasons to hate Anercrombie. I boycott them for their horrible shirts that are unfair to individuals and groups. They did the Loser shirts and the throw rocks at boys shirts. I hate Abercrombie.

Abercrombie & Fitch was once an outfitter, IIRC. Now they are nothing more than titillaters.

Beyond a certain size there is no truly stylish clothing because an obese figure is unattractive and the best looking clothes in the world will still look like crap. If you cannot see the underlying bone structure and musculature of the human body, it’s form, then there can be no style, beauty of any kind.

People come in a wide variety of bone structures and musculature types but any and all of them will be unattractive when smothered in layers of excessive body fat. Pro-fat people can argue all they want that fat is just as beautiful and that the preference for non-fat bodies is just a cultural thing but they’re wrong.

If your fat and your reading this and getting huffy remember I’m just talking about the body not a person’s character, personality etc., which obviously can be beautiful despite being physically unattractive.

Now, I’m off to eat another peanut butter moon pie!

Nothing will get you in trouble faster than telling the truth.

Telling a harsh truth for a good reason may get one in trouble. However glorifying snobbery for profit and fun is not revealing any new truth, but just being an a-hole.

It’s called target marketing. His disgusting ads would keep me away even if I could wear his clothes. Every business is not meant to serve every person.

I despise that store and won’t be going in there anymore. My child is a skinny minnie, and has bought their garbage, but the last time I was in there, the obscene music was blaring so loud I couldn’t hear myself think, it was freezing cold and some metrosexual male model was striding around the front. When we bought our stuff, the flakey girl wanted to put it in a bag with a shirtless man pictured on it, so I asked for a regular bag, but no, they didn’t have one. I hate that place. I asked for the manager and told him the volume of the “music” was driving the mothers with the credit cards out of the store and he looked at me like I was incomprehensible to his coolness. However I am way cooler than him, being a person with a brain.

Mad TV spoofed A&F a few years back. I think they captured the essence of the place.

I don,t think people object to fat people as much as they do to the reason most people are fat.

Because they do nothing except lay around and eat while some one else works to feed them, and have done that since they were babies.

Of course we know that every one who are fat is not on welfare but in these days of socialist America it is so obvious to any one who lived on a working mans pay in the forties and fifties and even the 1960s.

Able bodied people were expected to manage for themselves even if it meant doing that dirty word , work, or go hungry.

So there is no war against fat people which i for one sure in the hell would have no part in, it is a deep resentment against the socialism that America has adopted which has always failed and would be dehumanizing in any case.

I am old enough to remember when Abercrombie and Fitch made high-end gear for hunting and fishing. Now, their clothes look like things Goodwill rejects. Even the mannequins look like they slept in the clothes.
