karma makes me happy

This pleases me so much.

Female students at Framingham State College thought they looked fat in a picture that the school paper featured on the front page, a picture of them wearing tank tops with their stomachs exposed to show the painted-on name of a lacrosse player.

So they tried to steal as many copies of the school newspaper as they could.

They got caught, and now it's a story on the internet.... complete with pictures the whole world can see.

Karma is great.

Wow, I think I'd want the world to see my stomach if I could get it looking along those lines... :P

Well, if you ever get it down to those lines, get it on the front page somehow and then try to steal it! You'll end up on teh intarwebs!

I was thinking the same thing (about myself).

Oh those poor flat chested girls. Fat please, I've see more fat in a lean pastrami sandwich. This is of course why they are at Framingham State and not Harvard.

"Does this newspaper make me look fat?"

I just thought it was the unflattering cut of the shorts.

If they really thought they looked fat, then my question is, did they not look at themselves in the mirror in those outfits?

How much of an idiot do you have to be NOT to realize that you'll get photographed if you do something like this? Oh wait, they're at Framingham State (ouch).

I read about that. Justice is sweet. I'm betting the second 'o' was like, "ZOMG, that angle is terrible. Lets go get all ze paperz!'

Lemmings: OKAY!

[juldea.livejournal.com]

Yeah, let's see... "I ♥" has visible tan lines, "N" has huge thighs, "O"'s hair is all messed up, "O" is totally fat, "N" has a dumb look on her face, "A" is totally pasty white and has huge hips, and "N" is wearing shorts that are too small and trying to stop a Stooge from poking out her eyes. Sheesh. How could anyone IMAGINE printing that picture?

Let's hear it for female body image and being comfortable with yourself even if you're not an emaciated waif (a wafer thin waif? %-).

I'm tempted to send all those girls a "Fat Dyke Chicks Rule" t-shirt.

I just think that anyone would look horrible wearing those particular garments, unless they were airbrushed. Why does no one understand that the vast majority of "hot bods" in photos are totally not the way that person looks in real life? I think they should be pleased that they don't look completely horrible.

And here's another thing that irritates me: If you're going to knowingly do something along the lines of "making a fool of yourself" (such as putting paint on your belly and baring it in a crowd at a sports game) it seems like an all-or-nothing proposition. Either look stupid, and embrace that you are probably going to look stupid no matter how you slice it, or don't do it in the first place. It drives me nuts when people think they can have their cake and eat it too that way. "Boy, Mandy, you were so SEXY at that pie-eating contest yesterday!"

Honestly.
