Marilyn Wann Comes Out For Fat Pride

MARILYN  Wann is fat. She wants fat people to feel good about being fat. She is for fat pride:

Marilyn Wann, who weighs 285 pounds or 129 kilos, had her health insurance denied on the grounds of weight alone. This spurred her into becoming the leader of the so-called fat pride movement in the United States. She openly identifies herself as ‘fat’ and calls for society to change.

Says she:

“I don’t ask anyone else for permission to exist. Whether or not you want to ask me if I have a right to be fat or not, I claim it.

I grew up as a chubby kid. I think there’s sort of an implied question of ‘Why are fat people fat?’ and I notice that we don’t ask the same question ‘Why are these thin people so thin? What did they do wrong to be so thin?’

Dear Anroak, I’m a fat, Jewish, gay, black jhihadi with persecution issues…

Who is this Caffeine Kid, and how do we summon him? Is he bad or good? If bad, can he undone by Ritalin or a pint of London tap? If good, will he pop to the shops and give the upstairs toilet a good once over?

School nurses have been told to watch for signs of caffeine addiction in kids caused by drinks including Red Bull and cola.

Food And Fat: The Tabloid Work Out

FOOD and fat advice in the tabloids:

While children used to play regularly on their bikes or kick a ball, they’re now more likely to spend their free time in front of a TV or a computer console. That makes it even more important they do some running around during the school day - Councillor Les Lawrence, chairman of the LGA’s Children and Young People Board, Daily Mail, 1/9/09

COMPUTER games are good for your health — even when played sitting down, boffins claimed yesterday - The Sun, 2/9/08

Which is why Team GB wins Olympic gold for rowing, cycling sailing and all other sports that involve sitting down…

Uncocoro: China’s Big Bumper Book Of Poo

UNCOCORO: for Natural Unco Life (大便书) is a book about intestinal health, written by Fujita Koichiro (藤田纮一郎), aka Dr. Parasite. He wants us to secrete parasitic worms in our bodies:

For a long time, poo has been seen as a filthy yet unavoidable part of everyday life. When we are young, we’re indoctrinated that poo is brimming with germs: we must wash our hands after using the toilet, or else we’ll get those germs in our mouth, and other such ideas. So humanity invented the flush toilet and sanitation workers to carry out the important mission of “poo extermination,” and poo gradually vanished from our everyday lives. “Clean” Japan in particular has become a fresh, tidy, advanced, 21st Century country where poo is hardly to be found. Certain parts of the views outlined above are desireable or even necessary, but in addition to enjoying the plentiful fruits of science and a clean living environment, perhaps humanity ought to thing about whether there may be something wrong with all of this progress. Uncocoro: for Natural Unco Life will cause you to stop your blind drive to exterminate poo and carefully consider this question.

Better than reading the paper…

British Bulldog: Government Says Let’s Chase And Beat Up Fat Children

fat-british-bulldog British Bulldog: Government Says Lets Chase And Beat Up Fat ChildrenTHE Local Government Association wants a return to the good old days of British bulldog, when schoolchildren would attempt to cross a line of their baying peers.

A touch, a smack on the back, a tap on the ankles or a straight honest-to-goodness punch in the head and the runner becomes the hunter.

Needless to say fat children were ever domed. With their fat legs, fat heads and fat minds they were ill-suited to the playground fun, acting more as bouncing bollards then actual persons.

Soweto Better Off For Not Having Jamie Oliver’s Cooking

jamie_oliver-185x300 Soweto Better Off For Not Having Jamie Olivers Cooking JAMIE Oliver sees the benchmark for fine food in Soweto.

In 2005, Oliver offered us:

TV chef Jamie Oliver says school dinners are better in impoverished Soweto than they are in this country.

Now, Oliver gives us:

Oliver said in his experience the cuisine of “people living in the slums of Soweto” was “more diverse” that that of Britons.

Is there a link between Oliver not having cooked in Soweto and the place having better food then in the UK, where the tonguesom chef has been cooking on the telly for some time, and instructing us how to eat and how to shop via cook books and campaign?

We should be told…

The Best Fairground Food In Britain

alton The Best Fairground Food In BritainTHE best thing about fairground food is that if the rides are any good the stuff won’t be in your body long enough top enter your digestive tract.

Compiling a list of which is best and worst food on offer at such venues is like arguing over whether Manchester United or Chelsea is the greedier, or if Prince Edward is brighter than Prince Andrew.

Still Which? Holiday has emabrked on a mission to sort the wheat from the … the puke from the merely pukey.

Holland Moves To Ban the Munchies

JAMIE Oliver and his in-the-know-know better than-thou food freedom fighters who campaign for equality in chicken and the casues of chicken, also cheap protein, would like this news from Holland:

The Netherlands Nutrition Centre wants the brakes put on the growth of snack bars and fast food restaurants. In neighbourhoods with an abundance of such outlets, it wants local authorities to prevent any more being opened. In areas around schools, its demands are even stricter: it wants a complete ban on any business selling fast food”.

Yeah, that’s right, Holland wants to ban the munchies.

Germans Ban Kinder Eggs For Paedos

kinder-egg-paedo Germans Ban Kinder Eggs For PaedosNEWS reaches Anorak that German lawmakers want to ban Kinder surprise eggs.

“Children cannot tell the difference between a toy and food,” the Welt newspaper cites Miriam Gruss from the commission as saying.

This is a sure sign on how stupid German children now are, especially the fat ones like Augustus Gloop. The time is ripe for an invasion. But there is more:

Says a spokeswoman for Ferrero, who make the device: “There is absolutely no evidence that there is an increased danger from the combination of food and toys.”

Oh no. Anorak hears that anti-paedo campaigners have long believed the combination of pocket-sized chocolate and toy a clear and present danger.

These egg-shaped lures should be banned before it is too late. We must act now!

Peta Is Off Its Head: Greyhound Cannibal Strikes Blow For Animal Rights

peta-beheaded-224x300 Peta Is Off Its Head: Greyhound Cannibal Strikes Blow For Animal Rights A MAN has been beheaded on a Greyhound bus in Canada. In Canda, no-one can hear you scream. It’s like living in a chicken shed, only bigger, colder and without Jamie Oliver.

Peta, the animals rights militants have not claimed responsibility for the killing, but they are using it to further their cause. They are running an advert. It goes:

 “His struggles and cries are ignored … the man with the knife shows no emotion … the victim is slaughtered and his head cut off … his flesh is eaten

“If this ad leaves a bad taste in your mouth, please give a thought to what sensitive animals think and feel when they come to the end of their frightening journey and see, hear and smell the slaughterhouse.”
