i confess, i have an issue with fat. my mom was overweight, fat, obese, call it whatever. i don't like it, it's unhealthy, unattractive and arguably a matter of choice (caloriesin > caloriesout). i know it's harder for some than others due to culture and metabolism. sorry. i try to keep my prejudices to myself.

Great post! Can we revise and make a sticky for forum decorum?

Assholes and hypocrites are not limited by party.

I fuck it up, too, sometimes. Usually call myself an asshole immediately afterwards. Do my best to acknowledge my own hypocrisies.

I was in politics for more than a decade...I was paid to be a professional asshole.

Nice! Job security?

I couldn't measure-up to the other professional assholes and was forced to retire. Thank God

Not a bad character trait, imo.

Good reminder +
