Lard buckets don't like being called 'fatty'

**Simon43** · 19-06-2017, 08:04 AM

Well, here's some research that apparently attracted a whole load of grant money.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3310899/

Basically, the medical research team interviewed 390 adults - a cross-section of lard buckets of both genders, a variety of race types, and who had different levels of lard.

The research concluded that fat bastards do not like being addressed as 'you fat bastard'.

The research team presented the LBs (no, not ladyboys but lard buckets) with a choice of words to describe their body size:

'Fatness' was rated as a very undesirable word

'Excess fat' was also not liked, as were 'large size', 'obesity' and 'heaviness'

Patient-friendly terms were 'weight', 'BMI', 'weight problem' and 'excess weight'

The research team concluded that doctors should refrain from using the word 'fatness' and simply talk about 'your weight' or 'your BMI' etc.

Here are the results:

I could've told them that for free.

The fat cnuts on here go apoplectic when I call them fat cnuts.

TBF the ones that don't give a toss, often have a personality to compensate.

The obese cnuts who are always whinging about sore knees really piss me off, the fat, moaning bastards.

They missed a most important definition.

Solid.

I am 'Solid' ... sometimes very solid, sometimes lightly solid ... but always 'Solid'.

I blame it on being an (ex) Tight-Head Prop ... and naught to do to with Pints and Pies consumed ...

My body is a temple and I treat it as such

For "fat"? I have never used it like that.

Interestingly, "small boned" can imply being overweight. It's quite prevalent amongst Indians. They look fine by Western visual standards but are actually carrying too much weight but it's not noticeable because they are small-boned.

From the pics I've seen , your height to weight ratio looks fine mate.
Just don't drink the contents of the sky by yourself next time.

Peter Cook, on learning Elizabeth Taylor's glands were behind her weight issues:

"Poor woman. There she is, in her suite in the Dorchester, harmlessly watching television. Suddenly her glands pick up the phone and order two dozen éclairs and a bottle of brandy.

'No,' she screams, 'please, I beg you!' but her glands take no notice. Determined glands they are, her glands.

You've never known glands like them. The trolley arrives and Elizabeth Taylor hides in the bathroom, but her glands, her glands take the éclairs, smash down the door and stuff them down her throat.

I'm glad I haven't got glands like that. Terrible glands."

A fair compromise might be:

A fat ass with a weight problem.

Yep. Dinosaurs were "big-boned". Fat people are just fat.

Weren't many 'big-boned' people liberated from Auschwitz after the War, eh?

Well built is another. As in, "Like a brick shithouse"

Where I come from the word "Bonny" is also used in a kind way to denote fat fucker.
Further south it is more routinely used as a compliment.

In NZ that's used more in regards to someone who is large but not fat. 'Solid' I guess.

I quite like the term 'LB', as in:

Doctor: 'you look a bit LB, I'm quite attracted to LBs you know'
Fat git: 'Huh???'

Keep them guessing...
