U Fatso!
One of the greatest fears that plague many a human is the
thingy of growing fat. For a few it might look greater than the fear of death itself. Nobody wants to grow fat, even the comedian
Gabriel Iglesias (he is fluffy not fat) I guess, but just that most just end up
being.
Being Fat has nothing to do with a number that gives the
value of the force u exert on the earth’s surface. If u want a lesser value, u
can save money, colonize the moon and enjoy having a lesser value on the
weighing scale and perhaps even try setting
some records in the event: long
jump. However we all know, we are addicted
to numbers these days from weight to our broadband speed to the higher 20’s on
the Lumia phones and we let them control our lives.
I am not writing
this post to seduce by saying: “I have a secret to reduce your waistline by 3 inches in
a month so read ma next post next week” or “one tip to reduce the belly in an
hour, read till the end”. Well! We all know those bastards have taken advantage
of our vulnerabilities but this is about how that vulnerability is becoming an annoying projection of our behavior, I reckon. Read on!
The reason I think
the whole world (it’s a globalised society so what happens here usually happens
everywhere) is conscious of becoming fat and feel vulnerable about is watching
people’s statements and behavior. Maybe back in those days when folks met each
other, it probably was like:
(Characters in these dialogues are purely fictitious
and
resemblance to anyone is due to ma stupid brain randomly
picking up two
common names from the tip of the
cerebellum or wherever)
Mary: Hello! Hey haven’t seen you in a long time. How you
been?
Justin: I’m good Mary! Oh! I just got married…
Mary: How sweet! Maybe that’s why u put on some weight.
Justin: ah yes! Happens, u know….
Today it probably
would be like:
Mary: Hey Justin! OMG! Holy Crap!
Justin: what happened?
Mary: OMG! U r so fat
Justin: what? Fat? I just
gained a few pounds…
Mary: that’s fat!
It looks people
look around at everyone and look for the slightest bulge along the waist line
and if they find it, they blurt out fast: “growing fat?” or “Someone’s nurturing
a belly?”… Blah blah…. We all have heard it or did this to someone else. well! i know that sheepish smile :P
I guess a fear can never be suppressed or so any emotions.
If u try, it gets expressed in different ways like sometimes they project that
fear on to someone or do it so in their behaviors. Like someone goes around
calling everyone fat for some slight fat projections can be diagnosed with that
fear - fear that himself/herself may or is growing fat. He/she is just scared and so calls everyone
around fat to feel safe or non vulnerable......
Moreover today there is no finite line that separates the
fat from the lean or the normal (whatever that meant). Today someone might call
u fat and after two hours someone else would call u normal and by the end of
the day u can’t be sure if u r fat or not until u r really fat.
Conclusion: If someone is annoyingly going around and judging
everyone is fat or not as if he/she is a judge on a beauty pageant or something,
u can almost be very certainly be sure that the person is just projecting
her/his own fear on to someone else.
Well! we all know what to do now... Lets take them out!
