Game of Thrones

[Mike Stafford]

I enjoy watching the HBO series Game of Thrones. I have watched it several times from start to finish and I thought I knew all there was to know about it.

Last night I was watching the episode where the Army of the Dead, after breaking through the Wall, attacks Winterfell. I noticed something that I had not noticed before. None of the risen dead; none of the risen dead generals nor the Night King are fat people. There is not one single fat person in any of the scenes/segments throughout the entire series. As a matter of fact, there are many dead people who are literally skin and bones. There are not even any chunky dead people.

As a fat person I would like to complain. That is discriminatory. Dead fat people should have the same rights as dead skinny people. Dead fat people should be able to march around in the cold pillaging just like everyone else. I mean, look how many skinny dead people it took to pull Daenarys' dead dragon out of that frozen lake. If there had been some dead fatties that job would have been a lot easier.

Anyway, enuff said. I am just disappointed that fat people are abused in death as much as they are in life.

This post reminded me of the Dick Clark video from the 50's of the kids doing the Stroll on YouTube. The comments are great, like "OMG there are no fat people. By the way I'm fat too.

Look at virtually any pictures prior to the '80s, and you'll rarely see any fat people.

Jackie Gleason notwithstanding .

But he (and Alfred Hitchcock) were anomalies, not the norm. Nowadays, go to any gathering of more than 10-20 people and they're everywhere. (And don't get me started on XXXL Spandex pants and crop tops.)

Sitting on the wall at 9th st. In Ocean City MD. back in the early 70s was awesome. Not so much anymore.

You’re not fat - you’re too short for you weight. Also, if applicable, not balding on top - just too tall for your hair.

Yeah, what's up with that. I am definitely not into body shaming but I do not go around with my shirt off nearly as much as I used to. I don't want to scare the neighbors

I agree. I'm still at the weight I was my senior year of high school, but those pounds have moved to the point where there's nothing attractive about seeing me without a shirt. I have a mirror and I know how to use it. I wish the same could be said about some people.

I've said it before, Lycra is a privilege, not a right.

I am proud to say that I can still get into the same Sox that I wore in high school.

Well, all I can say is that I am supposed to be 7 feet 9 1/4" tall according to the charts.

Man, those things must be getting pretty worn out by now. You know new ones aren't all that expensive, right?

 

[Tom Niemi]

Thats why they fit, taint nuthin left of them

This is what I would look like at 7 feet 9" tall. This is Olivier Rioux, a young man from Quebec and he is playing for the University of Florida. Saw a video of him bringing the ball upcourt in practice. His dribble is over 5 feet high.
His mother is 6'2", dad is 6'8" and his big brother is 6'9". He was over 7 feet tall in the 7th grade.
