My New Friend
Remember last February, when I bought myself a set of Max pajamas from Where the Wild Things Are? Well, I did. And they are adorable. I posted a few snaps of me in them, taken by H (my husband who thinks I'm totally hot). I later put them on Pinterest, on my board "Fat People Existing." It's pretty much what it sounds like--positive and joyful pics of fat people out in the world doing stuff. Or in this case, me in my fly pajamas being cute and hilarious, and yeah...fat.
Today, I see that someone I don't know had reposted it. As you can see, she didn't even bother to change my blurb. To a fat positive board? No. To a costume or fun pajama board? No. To a chicks being silly, clothing that is grey, or pointy-eared people board? No, no, and nope. A total stranger posted a pic of me looking badass--on a board, and I am not kidding, called:
Whatever, I think. Probably just some dumb teenager who doesn't know what the hell...right? No. I take a closer look, because I can't imagine why this would happen on Pinterest. Isn't it mostly grandmothers and people buying houses or learning about fashion? No.
This is Ally, who thinks mocking fat people she doesn't know is hilarious. But please, no porn in front of the kids. Mockery and hate-speech, sure, but no porn. She has children, and those children are about to have children. Isn't that wonderful? Lest you think that Ally is a mean person, you should know that her Pinterest actually contains the following boards:
And as everyone who follows the teachings of the Bible knows...
Ally knows how to treat people. After all...
She's also really consistent about being healthy, which is why she has the right to mock fat people without a care for the fact that they're a person.
And if all that wasn't absurd enough, Ally is a little wary about hoodies.
So yeah, you wanna make fun of fat people?
You wanna be some kind of bigot bully hypocrite and terrible role model while bragging about your procreation abilities and adherence to the teachings of Christ? Consider this your big fat calling out--You terrible, terrible person.
Courtesy of my being done with work for the night, and not having posted here yet this week.

Most of my regular readers never moved over here from Livejournal. But I would sort of like to see this get around everywhere (even though the ensuing barrage of "moos" et al may become deafening).

Sorry, people like her just burn my britches.

Even though I see it fairly often online, I have to marvel at the ease with which people abandon Jesus' teachings while singing his praises. Myself, I'm a humanist. My husband is a Christian and I loathe the idea that anyone would think that he shares a philosophy with Ally.

As to her being a Christian, well, if that's really her below me there, she's indeed displaying a little tiny pinprick of conscience by at least apologizing to you now which is just so mighty Christian of her. (Other than that, no; she was probably "raised Christian"; I'm sure that's the extent of her "philosophy".)
very sorry!

It's nice that I "opened your eyes" that anyone can see your cruelty when you post it publicly online. I wish I had opened them to the fact that seemingly anonymous cruelty hurts people. I have a wide circle of friends and loved ones who routinely tell me I'm great--so your post was more confounding than hurtful. I just wonder about the pics of disabled people in scooters you've hurt, or that poor little girl being drawn as Jabba the Hut (all pics on the board, readers). Everyone deserves dignity and respect no matter what they look like.

You, however, appear to be awesome. I love the photo of you in your Max suit.

Pleasure to make your acquaintance.
