Things I learn from wank_report:

[nilchance]

T and I think we own fatness? One might say we are, indeed, uppity fat bitches having our big fat love-in. Obviously I am owed a big old chunk of change from... IDK, Torrid? Or the Biggest Loser?

Anyway. ALL UR HEADLESS FATTIES ARE BELONG TO US.

Also: our tone is alienating potential allies! Damn, where'd I hear that before? OH RIGHT.

uppity fat bitches.

i want a shirt that says that!

also: i saw an awesome speaker about headless fatties at the CAA conference last year. i think her article is going to be in the fat studies reader.

[villeinage.livejournal.com]

Link to this wank? And the report thereof?

I am sleepy, and a good cuppa outrage should perk me up.

[beanside.livejournal.com]

I WANT MY ROYALTIES, dammit!

Heee!

[cormallen.livejournal.com]

Oy. Dare I go looking for the wank?

[gestaltrose.livejournal.com]

You and T are two of the most wonderful women in fandom. . .

*loves*

[wyoluvr.livejournal.com]

mmmmmm....um, seriously?

must. go. find. wank.

[embroiderama]

Dude. I didn't see this wank, but I think I own a fleshy chunk of fatness too! Heh.

[bkm5191.livejournal.com]

I want a form fitting t-shirt that says "uppity fat bitch won't wear a tent."

[liptonrm.livejournal.com]

All hail the fattie-industrial complex! *snickers*

[sierrawyndsong.livejournal.com]

is it bad that my first thought was that a Headless Fattie sounded like one of the drinks you get down on Bourbon Street during Voodoo Fest?

[allthelivesofme.livejournal.com]

Eeeek, alienating potential allies!! *pulls up her fainting couch*

[liselisa.livejournal.com]

Your thread was on wank report? It wasn't even wank. The conversation was so civil, and if there was any impoliteness, it never escalated.

[weesta.livejournal.com]

I thought you owned fatness too. Didn't you sell me some shares at Wincon? Are you telling me IT'S NOT TRUE?! Is this some ponzi scheme?! I'm devastated, simply devastated.

[spae.livejournal.com]

Obviously today is a day of joy and sparkly bunnies all round.

I am gonna go and eat chocolate. *g*

[robanybody.livejournal.com]

o.O What the fuck?!

[hederahelix.livejournal.com]

I will not look. I will not look. I will not look. I can only handle so much derailing, and when the people deciding whether my employer will exist next year just did it to a whole union, adding more derailing behavior onto my mental plate is bad.

and also, if I posted something that long about a few comments, a whole wank report will break dreamwidth's entry length, right? right.

[frightened.livejournal.com]

Is it just me, or was there more wank in that wank_report than there was in the actual, y'know, thing?

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

It's just a short flap-up, but I can provide the link: http://www.journalfen.net/community/wank_report/518.html?thread=3555846#t3555846

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

http://www.journalfen.net/community/wank_report/518.html?thread=3555846#t3555846 is the report here.

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

N'awww. Thank you! Here, have a kitten. ;)

Here. Seems to be heating up, since T replied to a post to say that she and I aren't in fact conjoined twins. And somehow this became "omg she's saying people weren't oppressed in apartheid!"

You think I'm kidding.

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

I seem to oppress certain people by... idk, jiggling?

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

HEE. I do, too!

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

*snerf* YES. We are OPPRESSING them. Come see the violence inherent in the system!

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

... is it bad that my first thought is that somebody ought to invent that drink?

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

Oh no, but any discussion = WANK. Because god forbid that people discuss! It'll be anarchy! Cats and dogs, living together!

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

I know! Where are my manners, dammit?

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

Sorry. You're like an oppressor now. At APARTHEID. Or... vague parts of Asia!

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

...

*hides under office desk with ill-begotten fattie gain*

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

I subscribe to your philosophy!

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

It's all that lead paint they ate as children.

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

Oh, but it's EPIC right now. Because Teresa's intro post to fandom_haes? Is like apartheid, in a way.

N'aww. *gentle love* I'm sorry.

[nilchance.livejournal.com]

No, it's definitely not you. Who knew?

[sierrawyndsong.livejournal.com]

*snicker*

there probably already is......
i mean, there are Handgrenades, Hurricanes, Fuzzy Leprechauns, -- i am sure there is something......

[cormallen.livejournal.com]

I've been fat since before this thread came to be, so, clearly, I must remind you that I have as much right to those fat shares as you do, and whatever royalties or earnings thereof!

Seriously, though... the thing that really gets me here is that it seems lately any discussion in fandom automatically gets labeled 'wank'. I remember you being pretty civil throughout, which, in my book, doesn't a wank make, but, what do I know.

[gestaltrose.livejournal.com]

*hugs you* *runs away with the kitty*

I mentioned you in a post I did, I was asking about what makes someone a big name fan and I got quiet a few thoughtful responses. Just thought I would let you know. (after stealing the kitty of course)

[wyoluvr.livejournal.com]

see, i hunted it down, but before this most recent nonsense. i was particularly amused by the person above who said something about (i'm assuming, since i haven't read the story) Jensen in mediaville's story being fat and having a heart attack at 30 and dieting to get back to healthy weight, as if being fat automatically lead to having a heart attack.

hey, i've never been healthy and even when i weighed 120 lbs, i was less physically fit than my best friend from college, who was shorter and weighed around 200. now i'm the one who weighs around 200 and hey, guess, what still not as active or healthy as that friend.

[lunardreamed.livejournal.com]

I know. And I don't get it. I thought it was clear that the fic triggered feelings that inspired forming a support community, not that the whole thing was supposed to be an attack on the author.

And I love how a wank report degenerated into a real hate-on about how the fat-girls hate skinny-bitches.

"there's a lot of BAWW I'M FAT BECAUSE I'M OPPRESSED BY YOU SKINNY PEOPLE AND NOT THROUGH ANY FAULT OF MY OWN wank here. Man, if I could cure my own physical disability the way they could ie: a cure by not scarfing down two packs of Oreos and a king size bucket of KFC every night."

Gee, I hate skinny-bitches like that, too. I should be so ashamed about alienating those allies.

[guard-the-cards.livejournal.com]

dude, it could be like a buddah drink only no head! I always wonder what tourists do with those plastic hangrenades when they get home.... -ponders-

[sierrawyndsong.livejournal.com]

ya know, i need to ask my hubby....but i think i have seen a drink down there in a little plastic Buddha cup

a lot of the locals reuse them for outdoor parties (they are plastic)

the fuzzy leprechaun actually comes in a wide round glass (or used to) that some people actually get beta fish and put in.......

hey, do you and bean do Decadence Festival?

[guard-the-cards.livejournal.com]

I've never seen a local with one of those! lol, maybe because i'm in the service industry though... and we're all horrified by the lime green things!

hello fellow NOLA neighbor!
