Off-Topic Deathfat Encounters IRL - This thread is not your personal army.

[Mourning_Cloak]

white trash lifestyle without any personality disorders or a sense of entitlement,

I've noticed this phenomenon and it is very mind boggling how the lowest dregs of society can act so entitled and superior in every way possible...choosy beggars are so common. This transcends deathfats. My mother has hypothesized it is because they are accustomed to just getting bennies handed to them by the government, but that still doesn't explain it all. And of course it's even worse if they are entitled AND have a personality disorder.

I agree with your mom. In the US, I think it's also exacerbated by white trash/black trash being touchy about their pride as a response to knowing they're at the bottom of the totem pole. Thomas Sowell writes about this in Black Rednecks and White Liberals.

I mean, I think it's definitely passed down from generation to generation. At the origin, I think it starts as a survival instinct - not giving a shit about anyone else, just needing to get what (you think is) yours, because nobody's going to help you but yourself.

It's also a lot easier to just demand things rather than work for them, so once you get in the habit and see that it works, it's likely really difficult to break.

I just wanted to stop in again and reiterate my absolute disdain for how common fatness is in modern (Western) society. If you're from most European or Asian nations it's probably still a rarity to see someone so morbidly obese their leg fat's begun to sag over their ankles or so hideously blob-like you question where the fat rolls stop and the person begins, but here in the States it's an elephant in the room that's politely ignored. I can't fathom how it's just become this accepted thing to see someone 300, 400 lbs overweight and not bat an eye. Processed foods and sugars are bad for you, sure, but the majority of the population avoids ballooning despite that. Like a lot of things, will people just look back on this a hundred years from now and recognize how absolutely fucked health standards are/were, the same way people look back on medieval hygiene or the four humors?

 

[I call shenanigans]

I rarely see deathfats in the wild. Today I had an appointment with my GP and nurse for a simple vaccination. While I waited over 30 minutes, I saw my GP coming in and out of a treatment room and heard my nurse telling her patient he’d been in hospital in the past 2 weeks for non-compliance on his meds. I didn’t realise these things were happening in the same room….not the nurses office. Eventually I saw this dude try to back his “big wheelie” (Life By Jen reference here) at least three times to get out the door. When he eventually appeared he was at minimum 400lbs (and I’m being generous here) with one foot completely bandaged and the other looking like a balloon, with a few toes bandaged. He also had a young carer with him with a thick AF file titled “daily medications”. I just don’t understand how folks can ever let themselves go so far, and still refuse to take their meds. Let alone think they aren’t a drain on the health system. Where I live, a hospital visit like I heard talked about requires an air-lift from the local hospital to the capital city.

The UK has quite an obesity problem. I think that has a lot to do with the overly generous welfare system. It has fostered an attitude of "It doesn't matter how fat I am, how many children I have, or whether or not I have a job, the government will take care of me."

On the other hand, when I traveled to both Italy and the Netherlands, I didn't see a single overweight person who wasn't a tourist. And Japan makes obesity practically a crime, which is how it should be IMO.

My death fat experienced was having to work on the plumbing at a home where a 600 pound woman lived
The smell coming from the home was so bad we left the job
I've worked on sewer lines that weren't as nasty

I think you must be mistaken because in both Italy and Netherland at least a third to halt of the adults population is overweight (more so in Italy than in Netherland).
But only roughly like 1/10th of the population is obese, and i think if you are from the USA your scale is weird and you only see obese people as fat.

In the USA there's also a decent chunk of giga-fat (the morbidly obsese) who are tipping the scale.
In a lot of countries virtually everybody is a smallfat but nobody is a hamplanet.

It seems like the average young person in Japan is pretty chubby. Anecdata but any video or news photo I've seen from there recently always has at least one UK-sized person. And I only remember this because of how surprised I am every time I see it. Same goes for photos/videos of Korea. Children these days are just fucking fat.

Admittedly, I was in the Netherlands 20 years ago and didn't see even a single small fat. I was in Italy (mostly Rome) in 2018 and my small fat friend I traveled with was the biggest person I saw. Just my experience.

I went to junior high with an obese girl. Whenever we changed for gym class, she took her panty hose off and the stench emanated throughout the whole locker room. She was nice enough and I really felt bad for her...but damn!

The issue with this kind of self-report is that tourists tend to travel mostly in touristic areas, where it's more expensive to live and where the people you will see will be: other tourists / the minority of affluent locals and expats who can afford to live in those areas / waiters and other kind of people working service jobs who will probably be selected partly based on their looks, youth and thinness. Fatties are less likely to be hired to squeeze themselves between those tiny tables with a tray full of expressos.

If you google for what the data from the ministries of health and similar institutions are for those countries the results are what i said. But those fat people will typically be poorer and live in suburbs, small towns and in the countryside, the type of area where you will be less likely to go. Not to mention, fat people are most likely to be less mobile and stay home more.
It's the same in the US: people are on average thinner in NYC than in the flyover country. Similarly, people are thinner in Amsterdam and Rome than in smaller towns

Final point is: being from countries such as the US will probably skew what "fat" means to you. I made the distinction between overweight and obese for a reason.

Are you a fat yourself? Because that's what I'm getting from your defense of "people are fat everywhere." There's a difference between being a few pounds overweight and FAT. In addition to Amsterdam, I was in a place called Leiden in the Netherlands. And no fats. I was also in several places in Italy, and no fats. I guess they're all hidden in unseen corners.

Yes, morbid obesity is mostly prevenient in the US and similar countries. And obesity is on the rise everywhere. I live in a state where the obesity rate is low, but there are still overweight people. Get off your high horse.

No there isn't.

Fatties are normal where I reside thanks to mcdicks and all but full scale testicular elephantitis? That's my landscape at work now every morning.
I hope it is just his balls and not the fupa, somehow less disgusting.

I came to laugh at fatties, not... Whatever this horror is.
But please go on, I'll check back well after lunch.

Jabba the Hutt IRL above the nipple line, but instead of the slug tail below one engorged orb visibly attached to a greater orb of an inflated nature concealed beneath highly stressed adidas tracksuit, jutting below lying a pair of unremarkably normal legs, whilst in the middle a third possible orb of a flap like nature which jiggles when in motion.
Dude definitely has an actual condition but I suspect it is a direct result of being fat as fuck so no sympathy from me, you know the beluga head some of them get? kinda like that but full-scrotal.

Back in middle school, one of the office ladies definitely had some sort of extreme lymphedema and/or lipodema. I felt sort of bad for her in that akward, disgusted way because everyone constantly stared. She was obese but her ass was supermega My 600lbs Life obese. Like, she had to turn sideways a little bit to get through an office door. I highly suspect she used to be 600+ lbs, and lost some weight but had hit that point where she'd fucked her whole body up.

Like stage 3 in this. NSFL don't say I didn't warn you.

Spoiler: YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED

I always wondered how she, like, sat down, and one day I finally saw her office, and she had a chair-and-a-half in there.



Her giant nightmare-inducing ass wasn't solid, is the thing. When she walked it looked like a jello mold in an earthquake. It made noises.

If you hadn't said middle school, I was wondering whether we'd shared a school in common!

The head secretary of my elementary school also suffered from stage 3 ass lymphedema, and this was back in the 80s when such persons were very uncommon. She had a special double wide office chair, and could only wear giant skirts with elastic waist bands. I'd nearly forgotten all about her!

I don't recall if she smelled or anything, but it's not like I spent a lot of time in the school office. She was shocking to see, such that being startled at seeing her was inevitably met with a sharp parental elbow and a hissed reminder that it was rude to stare.

So. Yesterday I was really craving a chocolate frappe. There is a bakery within an acceptable driving distance that does the perfect chocolate frappe. Their meat pies- the ultimate test of an Australian bakery- are relatively decent, but they use name brand ice cream in their frappes, as well as real cream, and they are better than any cafe frappe I've tried to date.

The bakery is in a small shopping centre, and I parked my car and walked in. As I was passing a bottle-o something- or rather someone- caught my eye. It was an elderly man. He was quite overweight, but I have seen heavier. What caught my notice were his legs. They were horrendously swollen, bulging, taunt, mottled dark red and purple and peeling.

I ended up not going to the bakery. I handed over my vice money to the newsagents, and got a lotto ticket instead.
