Nature vs nurture

I strongly suspect nurture played a role in my case. I don't remember this, but I have been told that I was very thin for the first year of my life. Because I was underweight, the doctor told my parents to feed me more, which they did. So I think my positive associations with weight gain can be traced to this.

Whether or not this is related to my attraction to fat people, I don't know. That could be motivated by genetics, or by positive associations I made with fat people I knew when I was young.

So much pitchfork-core listed in this thread. I think fat chicks and their admirers try to express their anti-mainstream body image ideals in all aspects of their identity. I would quote certain posts, but it's the hipsters(so many of them to single them out, but you know who you are!). Porcupine Tree is a band that few people even know exists? Your credibility to your fellow fantasy feeders has been decimated. You guys are plebeians, equally as pleb as the two guys that posted that linkin park is the best band of all time. Oh, the hipster irony.


What type of music are you into then?

I think that is a warning, so... mission accomplished? smiley


Maybe. Depends on what my mission was. If my mission was to avoid making a warning, then this is rather a mission utterly failed.

His solo stuff is pretty good... but Million Dead was amazing! All of us Million Dead fans are just waiting for Frank to get sufficiently angry again so we can have more Million Dead albums.

Warning: Prone to over-analysis and indecision.

As such, any proper warning label wherein I actually list things I could warn people about concerning me would be very long, and probably keep me from having to be within 50 feet of another human ever again. Seeing, however, as that is really not a goal of mine, I'll keep most of my warnings to myself, thank you.

Which song are you listening?

Lots and lots of XTC lately. Across This Antheap, No Thugs in Our House, King for a Day... well, most of the Oranges & Lemons album, really.
