I guess you weren't a Don Rickles, Robin Williams, Red Skelton or any other comedian's fan?
P.S. I do not make fun of fat individuals, or anyone else. But "fat people" as a general concept- hey much like Jimmy Durante I suffer from a prominent proboscis, a magnificent schnozzola.
Ah-hah. Yes there are differences among:
1) Making jokes about fatness in general (yep, can be funny ... final scene of "The Meaning of Life" is a riot. "Just one waffer thin mint?")
2) Making fun of fat individuals like Rosie. (You wrote: "P.S. I do not make fun of fat individuals")
3) Pretending that a person's political views are wrong because she is overweight (this one edited for clarity).
I'm glad to see that I've moved you away from defending #2 and #3, which you were doing earlier. You've learned something today.
You could have said the same thing about Sarah's smoking when Sarah was Rosie's age. I guess you'll stop laughing when Rosie is on her death bed with a weight related heart condition or terminal diabetes.Rosie is fat, she could eat less/exercise more like any of us can, and probably avoid problems in the future.
