If you're thinking you recognise this family, then yeah, the girl Emma entered for the X Factor and was rejected. Her dad made her dress for her, and her parents came in after to yell at Simon Cowel.

I know this sounds mean, but just maybe if they stopped eating so damn much, they'd have enough money to spare for necessities. Hell, they could probably buy a car.

"All that healthy food, like fruit and veg, is too expensive. We're fat because it's in our genes."

Can we say d'uh, ladies and gentlemen?

While I know there is a genuine medical condition that makes you fat despite your best efforts, I think in their case it's more because "We have cereal for breakfast, bacon butties for lunch and microwave pies with mashed potato or chips for dinner,"

You can't help those who won't help themselves. They don't LOOK too fat to work, anyway. Plenty of jobs are still open to them. Sure, they're not gonna be fitness instructors or construction workers, but there's a lot of call centre work that requires nothing more physical than getting to work and sitting down, and hey, there's always 'phone sex line operator'.

Whoah, hang on, the father's included? He's on the list for a gastric bypass? He's barely CHUNKY!!

Not one of those lazy sacks of shit is "too fat" to work.

I have friends that are bigger than the biggest one of them. They work. I know two women who don't even have laps. They both have jobs. One's a supervisor.

I know a diabetic dialisis patient who was partially paralyzed by a stroke who built his own freaking handicapped ramp on his house.

I worked with a guy with no legs. I have worked with a guy who operated his wheelchair WITH HIS MOUTH. He was a CEO.

Fruit and vegetables are not expensive. However, junk food is. Box of twinkies costs about what a nice whole chicken costs. Fruit loops is more expensive than, say, a Bird's Eye steamer bag of brocolli.

Their problem isn't fat. Their problem is that they are a trifling, lazy-ass pack of entitlement whores.

I spit from great height on their ilk.

Okay folks, this one's going to be pretty controversial. Besides, a thread was started on Fratching before this one.

Closing it.
