Honestly, I don't think even Roget would have enough adjectives.
Well it's what I think, so what's the harm in me posting it. I don't think I offended anyone, other than Busyman and he deserved it.

The discussion went way beyond the original topic of that forum, which is when you started to post things about people with the disorder, rather than making posts about the forum in question. When you started calling them fucking idiots and such-like
Do me a favour, at least read (or even scan) the link and consider what it has to say.
I support your right to hold your opinions and to express them. However I think you would do yourself greater credit if you were to accept that you may not know everything about the subject, that your opinion may be based on ignorance and that you may change it (at least partially) given further evidence to factor in.
No matter how you have portrayed yourself here you are a clever chap. Do the decent thing and at least read what others have to say. It'll take you 5 minutes. You know it makes sense
Ok.

People who mock those with mental disorders should be thorougly ashamed of themselves. Can I suggest you have a look at this website and give the contents a wee scan
Royal College of Psychiatrists , if you can't be arsed doing that then please read this paragraph
Tho' I would ask that you take just 2 or 3 minutes to quickly scan the link.
Busy, we don't often agree, fair enough, but you are seldom this obtuse or despicably offensive. I've said this to others and I'll say it to you, you have been an absolute dickhead here. Either you mean what you are saying, or you are doing it for effect, either way you are being a real dickhead.
Lastly, as others have said better than I can. Even if you chaps don't believe the root of this condition (which the medical profession seems to have agreed) then surely you can show some compassion for other people who are obviously trying to deal with their own personal demons. Whatever they are to you, they are demons to the people they haunt.
The topic was that forum. Those observed there are stupid to me.
We are looking from the outside mind you. They seem to be doing fine.
Sorry but coming from where I'm from, stressing about something so trivial is trivial. I equate it to a rich fuck that lost their money and has to actually deal with life. Fucking deal and STFU. Disorder indeed. Maybe someone should stop not coddling these folk. Stupid culture based gender based bullshit disorder...along with a culture that permeates the mostly white world to be skinny. Maybe that's the real culprit.
I empower everyone (mostly men) to fix it. Get yourself a thick woman.
Because Thick Women can't see through your shallow, uncompassionate, arrogant, singleminded, inflexible, and truly pitiable soul?
Babe. Learn to reason, listen, and think. It might help.
You yourself told me you had suffered from COE and depression to a certain extent. You should therefore understand that sometimes you can't pick yourself up without serious hard work and medical attention. In the midst of suffering sometimes its just too hard to do so. You really can't empathise past your own views and experience can you?
If you only deal with Thick Women, as you put it, you'll never have a truly rewarding relationship. Putting yourself in a position of superiority will mean you are never challenged, won't grow, and will stay the small-minded self-obsessed person you are. :01:

sorry you're wrong
Re: check out this ANOREXIA forum.
Oh am I now...I NEVER said I found those women attractive, but the majority of men find those women attractive...
Angelina Jolie-Brad Pitt....need I say more
muchspl3- You are a fucking moron for posting this in the first place. The fact that you either hang out at the vestibule or entensity says a lot about you. Go back to your fantasy world where you belong....isn't there some Worlds or Warcraft game that you should be playing somewhere? Or maybe you just need to go have a wank over a cartoon...
