Ricky Gervais Hates Fatties

In Ricky Gervais' new comedy audiobook, he jokes that fat asses who get lipo and the gastric bypass surgery are "lazy fat pigs." Karl Lagerfeld just fell in love (see below).

Ricky said, "If your arse is too fucking fat, stop eating and go for a run." The Telegraph said Ricky was attacking overweight people. He responded to this on his own blog by saying he will never stop the fat jokes until doctors prove that being a member of the chunk club is something you're born with. Has Ricky never heard of the fat gene?! Anyway, here's what he had to say:

I heard someone on the radio once say that they were tired of the prejudice aimed at the overweight. They said something like "you're not allowed to make fun of gay people, so why are you allowed to make fun of fat people? It's the same thing."

It's not the same thing though, is it? Gay people are born that way. They didn't work at becoming gay. Fat people became fat because they would rather be that way than stop eating so much. They had to eat and eat to get fat. Then, when they were fat they had to keep up the eating to stay fat. For gayness to be the same as fatness, gay people would have to start off straight but then ween themselves onto cock. Soon they're noshing all day getting gayer and gayer. They've had more than enough cock... they're full... they're just sucking for the sake of it. Now they're overgay, and frowned upon by people who can have the occasional cock but not over indulge.

When a doctor tells me that that's how you become gay, I'll stop making jokes about fat people.

"Overgay" is the story of my life. Just ask my doctor. He prescribed me a diet of less Bravo, more Spike and less cock, more Kid Rock. That last part rhymes!

Anybody who has seen Ricky's act knows that he's a fat bitch who makes fun of fat bitches and he knows it. When he makes a blubber joke, he'll follow it up with, "I'm a fatty bo batty myself..." or something like that. Because he's a plumpy himself, it's okay for him to make fun of fatties, right? Right?

And who takes him seriously anyway? He's a fucking comedian. It's just jokes! Jokes! People get are so damn oversensitive. You can't make fun of fat people, skinny bitches, gays, lezzies, straights, gingers, squirrels, ferns, etc... What else is there left to laugh at? Rocks?! Well, that includes most of Hollywood, so that settles that. We'll only make fun of fucking rocks!

Oooh, another favorite topic! You guys keep bringing it, and I'm TRYING to clean the apartment today!

They probably exist, but I've never met a poor or black anorexic. Or any other ethnicity than white. I've only ever seen privileged white girls with eating disorders. Like I said, they probably exist, and I'm NOT being racist.

People who are struggling for their very existence have little time for neurosis.

I always wonder that myself! There is a whole dynamic going on there. My god.

That's why the show "Ruby" (which I encourage EVERYONE to watch) is so interesting to me. Her friends are "supportive" but I can't imagine that they have always been that way. I've seen Ruby manipulate the crap out of them; she's very charming, but she knows which buttons to push, too. FASCINATING! Sometimes people like to have someone dependent on them, and "beneath" them. I've been there myself with an addict. They can guilt you like crazy.

Overall, I do have sympathy for the overweight and obese. I have sympathy for any living thing that is truly suffering (unless they are tasty, but then, they don't suffer for long before I eat them) assuming they haven't done something to truly deserve it (murder, etc.)... BUT my sympathy has degrees. Do I feel sorry for a self loathing fat person hopelessly addicted to food and full of shame? Yes I do. But do I feel a lot sorrier for some kid starving to death in Africa ravaged with disease and suffering physically mentally and emotionally every waking moment of his doomed life? You bet. A lot. I feel sorry for anorexics too, but I can't help but to wonder how many anorexics there are in countries where food is so scarce, they are eating dirt. I don't lack compassion, but c'mon some people are far more deserving of far more compassion than others.

Dot,
I know the feeling, the last month was the worst. Breathing was difficult at times and I could never lay on my back or tummy(and I'm a stomach sleeper).

Fair enough, but what about medical conditions? I don't know the exact name for it, but I do know she has some issue with her female parts. I'm not female so I don't know exactly what, but it has something to do with hormones, I think, because I remember her making a joke when we were watching Alexader that she could grow a better beard than Jared Leto. I'm not saying she's in perfect health, but she is a lot happier than some of the thin, gorgeous girls and guys I know. She's accepted her reality which is something I would love to do in my own life. Knowing her has kind of opened my eyes, but it certainly hasn't made me immune from being a self-righteous bastard. Even if I was straight I'm not sure if I'd be attracted to her, but I might be because she's got an amazing outlook on life and hey, her man is hotter than a lot of my exes so it's clearly my issue and not hers.

I also noticed someone mentioned fat pets and I have a lot more experience with that than I do with human weight gain. I've fostered a lot of animals who were overweight and some of them slimmed down with a proper diet and exercise, but some, even after tons of tests and proper diet and exercise still couldn't lose the weight. I've seen them gain weight on certain medications and seen it continue even though I adjusted their diet.

I'm on two different medications for bipolar disorder, but I guess I won the genetic lottery or something because I haven't had weight gain, but I have seen others gain massive amounts of weight on medications. Maybe I got lucky because I'm more prone to mania instead of depression. I have no idea. It's a lot like sexuality, I think. So many factors go into it and I'm sure there are plenty of fat people who are just lazy and like McDonald's too much, but there are others who have a completely different set of issues. I don't think we can just assume that everyone who is overweight is like that because they want to be. And I do smoke so I'm just as likely to drop dead as anyone else.

soemtimes these things are not simply a quick fix of "Oh, just get off your ass and stop eating."
**************************************

I agree. It can take a long time to figure out what hole it is you're REALLY tryna fill and how to replace it with what it needs. And then after that - even just to mend the habit. If you've ALWAYS comforted yourself with food and then you figure out what it is you really want - it's still more familiar to just eat. (for instance)

I learned this hard way. I tend to think of dlisted as this little hidden-away vacay spot on the internets... kind of a virtual "what happens in vegas stays in vegas"...

but a few months ago I posted something here about a bitch in high school (I'll call her "Bitch") and I referred to her by name. Not long after, by sheer coincidence, my bff from high school did a search on Bitch for shits and giggles and the first return was my dlisted post about Bitch. So, now after I post something personal, about an hour later I think about the Bitch incident and I question myself.

There's a happy ending, though - my bff has since become a regular dlisted reader! ~haha He's so much like MK, though, I'm surprisd he hadn't discovered it sooner~

Okay Diego, ponder this scenario.

Imagine if hard drug users, alcoholics, smokers and the obese died within 2-5 years of commencing their habits?

Let us take smokers as an example. Imagine if every person who smoked half a pack a day for 2 years would die within 3 years of starting? How many people would still smoke? And you know what - if people did choose to smoke knowing they will die sooner, I say let them. Think of all the surgeries that wouldn't have to be done, all the medicines and expensive care that wouldn't have to be provided?

Same goes for the obese fatties.

Those behaviour are nothing but a death wish. Same for anorexics.

You want to die? Fine. Die. Just don't drag it out and fuck it up for the rest of us.

I want to see the money being spent on care for the self abusing being put towards those how are ill or ailing due to no fault of their own. And all the left over money being used to better the quality of life for those that CARE about the quality of life - not the death seekers.

I'm really happy for your accomplishments, but if being thin and shopping at Express are the orgasmic end-all be-alls of life, have you *really* fixed the food relationship/psychology?

Not being a bitch, just sincerely asking. soemtimes these things are not simply a quick fix of "Oh, just get off your ass and stop eating."

Some of you people would show more sympathy/empathy to a 3 pack a day smoker with lung cancer, it would seem.

Nobody lives a perfect life & some of our choices may have poor consequences, but damn - we're all just people---even fatties & smokers.

As for the comedy - every comedian pokes fun of somebody or some group of somebodies. It's pretty funny until it's a group *you* belong to. That's the reality. I find myself just as guilty. I usually try to see things as a joke - with one exception being that Dennis Leary Autism bullshit - simply because it is SO fucking difficult to get mental health disorders accepted and his bs jokes were of the mentality the mental health coommunity has been fighting for decades.

Personally, I don't think I'd be happy if I was fat, but I do know a lot of people who are overweight and happy as fuck. I have two close friends who are at both ends of this spectrum. One is a big girl, probably about 250 pounds, and she is the happiest, well adjusted person I know. She has a steady relationship, a job she loves and she's just awesome to be around and she couldn't care less if someone thinks she's too fat. On the other side, one of my absolute best friends is thin and beautiful, but she's batshit miserable. Say what you want, but it ain't the big girl who spent 10 grand on a nursery for a chihuahua, takes her weight in 'happy' pills every day and obsessses over every single thing she puts in her mouth.

Once again, I never denied that there is a predisposition to homosexuality.

However, without experience to guide their expression, these genes are worthless chemicals. Consider the failure to find complete concordnce among monozygotic twins in research.

Claiming that a child is born gay is to fall entirely on the 'nature' side of the debate. I find myself somewhere in the middle.
