The theory that the awkward, the unexpected, and the just plain ridiculous moments in life gravitate toward a girl just trying to live her life in the simplest way possible, therefore, as a result, making her life absolutely absurd.

Fatty McFatFat
Not being down on myself or super self-conscious, but I know I am not the smallest or skinniest person ever. It’s just the fact of life… I have curves. As Jessie Bennie would say, “Beth, you’re just a regular-sized little person”. True.
Well, the other day, I was at Walmart just picking up a couple things. I went to the checkout line, and the guy ringing me up was kind of weird and was just trying to make super friendly conversation. I, trying to be nice, responded to his questions and comments about my purchases. Well, a girl behind me in line started talking about how cold she was. The cashier turned to her and said, “You’re cold?!” She responded, “Yeah, well, I have like no body fat so I get cold really easily.” He turned to me and said, “Well at least she isn’t super bony… I mean, I can’t imagine how cold YOU must be! You’re SUPER bony… Ha, just kidding…”
I think he just called me fat.
Really? Did that just happen? My response was silence… I gave him an evil glare and just grabbed my things and left.
Next time something like that happens, I am knocking all the gum and candy down before I leave. That’ll show 'em.
