Finally, an episode right up my alley

See you Sunday (with my stungun)!

The best episodes of COPS are the tazer episodes. FYI, if you don’t want to get tazed, do what the cops tell you to. If you want to get tazed, looks like you need to give Buzz a call

When I was in high school, one of my classmate’s dad was recovering from a stoke, and my classmate would bring his dad’s super potent battery operated shock treatment aparatus, and OMG we used to have sO much fun shocking the hell out of each other! So i wonder if getting shoked like that kid protesting John Kerry, would be fun…anywho…I agree with Steve..LET’S RID OURSELVES OF THE WORD FATTIE!we gotta FLIP THAT SHIT like Miz. Ronnie tought us!

Funny show, i loved it!

I personally have electrocuted myself several times and most of them were for fun. Mmmmm tingly… But yes I agree with Stevens thought s on the word fattie. I dont appreciate being called it and especially dont like hearing being used by others. I also agree with the punishment for the jocks with the 6pack abs. Now I myself have been overwieght for most of my life, and I have never had a problem with who I am because it is in my mind who I am. But once I came out to all my friends and stuff in college earlier this fall, it made me for the first time in my life really start thinking about my belly that classifies me as a “Fattie” Because in the gay community, especially for the male gay community, overweight gay men are riddiculed, made fun of, and badgered. By our own community of people just like us, except for the few extra pounds. So it pressures us to have to “fit in” with people who we already fit in with. All becaus ethere is the unspoken rule that to be gay you have to be thin. I mean for god sakes it is a fetish to like slightly overweight gaymne. Something is wrong with that, that if we are sp supressed and pressureed to become thin so we can be accepted be our own community that we become a fetish, kind of like an oddity for others to behold. I am sorry but I do not like that. There is just something extreamly wrong with that, and I wont stand for it one bit. So I ask why is it like that? Why is “chub” a fetish in our community? and Why is it an un-written or un-spoken rule that to be gay you HAVE to be thin, and you Have to work out? Thanks that is all I have to say. Sorry if anyone felt like I was bitching, I wasn’t trying to come off as that.

For the record, Buzz has the stun gun, I just bite. But I’ve had my shots.

And I agree about the word Fattie. The rainbow flag is meant to signify the diversity of our community yet there seems to be this unspoken rule saying that we are a diverse group of people unless you are fat or some kind of alternative freak. I’ve never been thin. Thinner than I am today, yes, but never totally thin. I hate going into West Hollywood because I’ve actually had skinny guys in A&F outfits look at my belly, my not-so-fashionable outfit and literally roll their eyes or make a distasteful face. And Logo doesn’t help much. The only time you see guys who aren’t hunky and gorgeous are on shows where they show how hard it is to live life outside the big city or comedians who make fun of the fact that they aren’t what others see as attractive. How about a show about a group of gay men and women who are geeks, live paycheck to paycheck, struggle to make ends meet, and also have a great time. I’m so sick of the media making us all out to be high income fashion designers and interior decorators.

Sorry, I must have caught Matt’s rant fever.

by the by, Wendi Jo Sperber died after a long painful battle with cancer, NOT ‘fattie’ related causes…*slightly annoyed*

How fun! Todays show was what i needed - continuous laughing. Wish i could make it to California… I’ll lend you my tazer..

Oh! I’m sorry. When I was standing on my soap box earlier about the word “Fattie” I forgot to tell you guys. Marc, Fausto yet again today was another great show! Made me laugh tons, only problem was I was in a women’s care doctors office with my mom. So while she was back with the doctor, I was left sitting in a room full of women(most of which were pregnant, and moody) laughing and giggling at your guys show from today and I got these dirty looks and stares. It seemed to me that in their heads they were saying, “Oh what a pervert!” “Shut the hell up, I’m craving pickles and icecream , the last thing I need is to listen to you laugh!” It made everything even funnier which did not help the situation at all. But I got through it. When I left with my mother I could see the relief on all the womens faces, cause they wouldn’t have to hear me giggle and laugh anymore. So thanks for making my day hilarious! Lots of Love! and I hope you can continue to make me and millions more in your audience laugh eveyday for as long as you shall live. Long live the Feast of Fools!!!

I loved the show today. It had me laughing at work and took my work frustration away quick. I suggest you have Ronn Vigh on more often. I love his attitude. Keep the fattie jokes coming. I use to be fit all threw high school and when i met my husband I plumped up to 250lbs. I have then lost all the weight extra bacon and can tell you from experience that I was always weak and sick when I was big. It totally fucks with your health. I agree with Marc and Fausto.

Sorry Raquel but I hate to annoy you more but obesity is an important risk factor for breast cancer. You don’t have to be obese to get breast cancer, but it does contribute to the risk.

Raquel, hate to annoy you some more but obesity is a contributor to the risk factor for breast cancer. I wouldn’t call it a fattie disease though but it obesity does contribute to the risk.

Thanks. I dont look 38. Because Im not! I am 28. But, dont I look good for 28 too?
I wont comment on anything else because Im sure Ill say one wrong word and start a new firestorm. =)

THANK YOU Anna, for saying what needed to be said. and as for cancer-causing agents…i think Sweet N Low and diet sodas containing artifical sweetners would kill you a lot faster than a binge at the Old Country Buffet.

not to mention how dangerous fad diets like the atkins diet can be

now do i advocate extreme obesity to the point where the person is on some freak talk show getting a pep talk from Richard Simmons cause they havent moved from the bed in years? of course not!.

..but i believe that a person doesnt have to be a size 0 to be healthy. there are plenty of average size people around who are far from healthy. just assuming that if someone happens to be plus sized means they are by default unhealthy is just an ignorant statement.

should millions of girls feel like shit cause they don’t look like some coked-up glamazon supermodel or ditzy blond heiress? NO! women come in all shapes and sizes, and there is nothing abnormal in that!

I would be the first to call brutality on the cops, but in this case I’d like to reiterate Pup’s comment and further it with http://gainesvillesun.com/article/20070919/NEWS/709190335/1007/NEWS

Sure, police brutality and excessive force is on the rise (it’s a side effect of the suppression of democracy in favour of fascism), but when some idiot decides to come up and pose as someone who gives a crap about politics, then he deserves to get tazed. Maybe if he hadn’t been resisting arrest, as is clearly the case in the video, he wouldn’t have gotten tazed.

It’s stuff like this that pisses me off, If it’s not police fucking with protests ( http://www.cbc.ca/canada/story/2007/08/23/police-montebello.html ) then you have to deal with civilians ruining it for the rest of us.

Just started listening to this episode, but giggling already about Fausto’s experience at Chili’s in Puerto Rico—I had a similar experience in the Chili’s in London. I think the food did take a boat over from the U.S. because it was cold and yucky and way overpriced!
