Thank you, Abraham Lincoln!

Drunken grad student: That model was, like, so thin and emancipated.

When will the day come that dangerously underweight women wake up, and realize that they are not hot, but rather DISGUSTING? This trend towards skeleton thin body is in no way attractive. Take for example America's Next Top Model, the group of contestants are all frail, pale, and flat chested. None of these features are attractive in nature. I am glad that I remember the day when models used to be HOT (e.g. Tyra, etc). and did not fill out their garments with pointy bones. Bottom line: Curves never go out of style.

the titles here are funny... they are better than the ones at the overheard at UoG, but there's not enough of a difference for that one Western guy to be posting "Title sucks" for every one...

4:38, you're right that there is no need to criticize the UofG site. However, after examining all the entries on the UofG site, I would have to say that while there have been a few gems (mainly Prof comments), there really is no comparison btw the sites, sorry.

Although 2:20 is right, they may wanna be careful with a statement like that. I completely agree, chicks who are really just skin draped over bones are gross. However, the only people I have EVER heard spontaneously (and needlessly) voice this widely held opinion are girls that are insecure about being OVERweight, or just plain ugly (whether it's actually the case or not). Lemme explain. When someone deliberately and overtly belts out an opinion that most see as a given, without any prompting, they aren't usually much "competition" in the area referenced by said opinion (in this case, physical attractiveness). Call me mysogynist, or cynical, or both (though I really only am the latter), but I've seen it happen WAY too many times for it to be untrue - unfortunately endowed women spouting the old lines, to make themselves feel better. Doesn't really matter if it's weight, height, cup size, shoe size, skin tone, or some other ridiculous variable. It works for dudes, too. Penis size is a popular one; it's not the size of the boat, it's the motion of the ocean... sound familiar? Hell, I know a girl who lies about her sexual orientation, just to make herself appear more interesting. And what's really striking about this whole mess is that nobody bothered to come up with lines for stuff of actual VALUE; intelligence, maturity, wit, or the rare ability to not act like a fucking douchebag from time to time. I know, it's kind of a roundabout way of saying it, but you're REALLY unsatisfied with yourself, going to the gym burns more calories than not shutting up. This isn't a shot at 2:20 or anything, just an observation; when kept up by pointless discourse at 4am by the ditzy, inconsiderate girls in his house, a man likes to contemplate things, and sometimes, it's related to the discussion keeping him awake. Sorry about the essay folks... I'm already in exam mode.

P.S. OaG is balls. OaW rules.
Oh, and leave D-N-T alone, you pricks. Cripes, talk about anger issues.

7:27 - Good writing.

9:10 - Why bother commenting?

7:27 - Kudos for actually making sense of an issue. Far to often OaW comment writers deliever some knee-jerk response.

2:20 - I agree with you that a woman with a healthy body weight is far more attractive than todays anorexia cases. Another perfect example would be Hillary Duff circa 2004 versus the scrawny thing she is today.

So, are you guys saying those top model broads need boob jobs? I guess I can get behind that idea.

You know, you feminsts are all right.

I hope that no one is saying that. Plastic surgeons are the modern day equivalents of Mengele and the Nazi eugenicists. Certainly, their actions are no less reprehensible or criminal. They butcher people who, as a results of mental illness or defect, suffer from a predisposition towards self-mutilation, and should properly be treated in a mental health facility rather than having foreign materials shoved under their skin.

I would like to point out there are TWO areas of plastic surory. Comsetic and reconstructive. I find it hard to see the devil in saving a burn victom's face.

They make people who feel bad about their appearance feel good about their appearance. What's wrong with that?

Oh, please. They are enemies of the people. Ideally they should all be shot.

Y'know 11:42, if you wanted any kind of argument on your part to be well recieved, you may want to try NOT acting like a fucking lunatic.

1:44: I would like to point out that plastic surgery actually goes against the principle of eugenics.

9:53,

I didn't mean that they were eugenicists, I meant they were as bad as the NAzi criminals who, similarly to themselves, claimed to be medical professionals.

4:21,

Simply spouting off ever crackpot idea that enters one's mind is infitiely more entering than trying to come off as "sane" or "rational". In this case, though, I'm actually right.

Hi, 2:18. 4:21 here. See, the problem with that statement, is ACTUALLY, that you AREN'T. I know, I know, having a strong opinion SHOULD entitle one to be right, but sadly, the world just doesn't work like that (sob). In the interest of moderation, and pointless arguments on message boards so as to avoid studying, I present you with the following:

1)How can a group that commits atrocities AGAINST the will of others be as bad as a group that commits (alleged) atrocities against others WITH THEIR CONSENT? Doesn't make sense to me.

2)...Also noting that, in EVERY case, instead of KILLING them, they enhance the subject's self esteem. Beauty and popularity are shallow virtues, but people HAVE shot up schools over it - seems valuable enough to me.

3) Unless there's an etymology I'm unaware of, I think you meant to use a different word than "entering." I have no clue what you're trying to say.

4)Now that you think about it, doesn't shooting someone over their profession (plastic surgeon)seem as bad as Nazi eugenics? Hell, I'll even bet you claim to be a medical professional! Sounds like YOU'RE an enemy of the people... well, some people, anyway.

5)I wonder what your MOTIVATION is. 7:27 makes a point up there. Perhaps 9:24 spoke too soon? I dunno. There IS a post further up on violent lesbians you might be interested in... I mean, if that's your M.O.

...just sayin'.
