As America gets fatter and fatter, we thought we’d help us all figure out what stage of obesity we fall in. So put that third slice of cheesecake down and learn how fat you can really get (If you’re not already in Stage 7.)
Stage 1: Potentially Fat
Stage 2: Topanga From “Boy Meets World” Fat

Stage 3: “Party Animal” Fat
Stage 4: Sporty Fat
Stage 5: Double Take Fat
Stage 6: Surrender Fat
Stage 7: Melding-To-Furniture Fat

This is insulting and insensitive. It’s also rather funny, in a weak smile sort of way

Now, that’s funny. I know everyone of those people and I’m somewhere in there myself. Trying to reverse that :)

This is insulting and insensitive. It’s also rather funny, in a gut-shaking repressed belly-laugh sort of way.
Obesity is hardly ever a healthy thing for a person and less fat usually means more health, a longer life, and a less painful (and less expensive) dying.
One can laugh at these jokes without ever desiring to dis fat people in person. Paramedics have this kind of gallows humor while they are able to be lifesavers.
