Um, what?

Okay, so while watching the taped NCIS marathon I made from last weekend, I caught a commercial for exercise equipment. I won't say the name so they can't say I was, you know, whatever. Now, normally I tune out commercials, specifically ones that involve exercise since I work too much to have time to work out.

Anyhow, so the commercial is running and the guy in the commercial says he "gave all his fat clothes to his fat friends." What the hell? How does he have any friends at all after that? Don't care if it was written, don't care if it was taken out of context. That's a horrible thing to say. Especially about people you're supposed to care about. I would never be so disrepectful toward people I called friends.

Reminds me of another ad I saw for a work-out facility where they made fun of overweight people. How is that supposed to make me want to go to that gym when the people running it enjoy berating others? Cruelty is not attractive.

Grr. I need a pissed-off icon.

bitching, snarky, rl
