If you are reading this in a group that is not
soc.support.fat-acceptance, soc.singles or soc.women,
it means the idiot who started this thread posted
in your group as well as mine and I flamed his ass.
I consider the idiots I flame a waste of humanity
and deserving of all of the ill treatment I can
hand them. If you don't like it, remove the groups
I use from your reply and you won't hear from me.
