One time I was at Family Dollar and I glimpsed this gargantuan black woman in the aisle. It was summertime, so she was wearing basically nothing. She had a spaghetti string tank top that dug agonizingly into her shoulders, her cetacean backfat flopping over the straining back. Ludicrously tiny red hotpants. Even her flipflops were ill-fitting. She was also wearing one of those black lady shower hats, those puffy fake silk things. I stared at her, because even though I live in a fat as fuck city and I'm used to seeing total monsters I can't help myself. Obesity is fascinating. At some point the body doesn't know where to put all that fat, so it freaks out and starts packing on in highly individualized places, like the Slaton sisters' foreheads and Anna O'Brien's legs. This woman, her arms were the fattest thing about her. I think a regular-sized person could have slipped into her arm fat like a sleeping bag and fit more than comfortably.
Anyway I went about my business and I foolishly went back up the aisle I'd seen her in to get to the front and pay. Well, there was a turd on the floor. Huge fat person shit. They shit insanely, all of them. Obviously it was hers.
Another time, when I worked in a pizza shop at a liquor store, I served this really fucking fat black girl and to help her out I gave her the smallest piece of pizza. We argued. I wouldn't give her a bigger piece of pizza out of pettiness. She freaked the fuck out on me and told me she was going to find me and beat my ass, lol. A few days later she came in looking very sheepish and apologized to me and we made up. Heartwarming.
I have my own big black lady story. So I got a flight awhile back and it had one of those boarding systems where it has more than one group and numbers, so you might have groups A, B, and C with numbers 1-15, for example, but the seating itself is open, if that makes sense. Like, you go on, and plop down wherever the seat is open. First come, first serve for the seat itself. I'm flying by myself and I don't like flying, especially coach, but I'm C07. Anyway, there's like eight people packed in the C06 to C10 area, and I just don't care that much so I stand at the end, but there's this lady and this kid that's maybe 8, and a cluster of three heavyset black people in the 300s. Now, they have these overflowing bags of airport snacks. Like, those paper bags you get at Footlocker, but overflowing with Costco snacks. They have Costco Peanut M&Ms, chips, pretzel chips. cookies, jerky, those things with icing with the pandas on them, the big Oreo thing. I know. I looked. I thought it was the most interesting thing about them.
And the lady asks my number, and I tell her, and she and her kid are C05 and C06. So she taps Big Black Grandma on the shoulder and says, "I think someone in line is in the wrong place."
MISTAKE!
Modern Day Rosa Parks says she's not moving. Now, it is a full flight, and I get the worry the mom not be next to her kid. The lady is exasperated, but defeated, and I feel a little bad. I say, "Excuse me, young lady," in my most charming voice, "I think this other lady wants to sit next to her kid."
Fat Black Grandma is not drawn in by my rizz. She tells me it ain't her problem. Fine. I can play this version of the game. I point out she's C14.
She fires back an epic, "I bet it would make your day to send an old black woman to the back of the line."
I'm pretty done with this, so I just say, "Yes, it would make my day."
She shuffles behind me, but the lady and kid were standing behind me at this point, so she's ahead of them. "Go ahead," she says. I sense she is not enthusiastic, but she knows she is wrong.
"They were ahead of me," I tell her. They walk ahead. Rather than EVERYONE CLAPPING as I was expecting and hoping, everyone is silent and still lets this old witch cut some of the line. She smacks me with her snack bag boarding flanking hard on my left.
In a brave act of defiance, I smash into the chip bag a little. Warning shot fired. She backs off and pesters me no more. To further avoid me/exercise, she calls for a wheelchair to get off the plane later.
