eball Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 We're being uppity, and thus, if you like something that I don't, then it's because you're a sheep. Got it?
4merper4mer Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 Here's one: Maggie Gyllenhall. We're told she is a good actress. Not so much IMO. She is also constantly being cast in the role of attractive females. Are we seriously supposed to believe this? It is not a judgement of someone to recognize the fact that they are ugly. Lots of people are ugly. It does not make them a bad person and it is really not a big deal at all. But seriously do we have to act like Harvey Dent, Bruce Wayne and Batman would all be fighting over this chick? Brainy or not and as "enlightened" as those characters are, I'm sorry but this is not a realistic scenario.
Canadian Bills Fan Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 For me it has to be Adele. I mean all her songs are pretty much the same. All slow ballad songs yet everytime she releases a new single, the radio stations and media fall in love with her more and more and say how this song is better than the last CBF

Canadian Bills Fan Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 I think she is a good singer but basically agree with your point about anyone thinking she isn't must be shunned. Exactly CBF
Maury Ballstein Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 I think she is a good singer but basically agree with your point about anyone thinking she isn't must be shunned. Your friends and co workers shun you for not loving Adele ? Sounds like a rowdy bunch.

Canadian Bills Fan Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 Totally agree. I don't find her attractive at all. Me either CBF
PromoTheRobot Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 Would she be happier w/the term Rubenesque? Plump and round in a pleasing way. Yeah. She has appeared to slim down recently... IMO I believe the correct term is Zaftig.
KD in CA Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 (edited) The problem is there doesn't seem to be an adequate definition of 'plus sized'. First it was anyone who was a size 8. Now it seems to cover everyone up to shamu level. Perhaps we need to be more specific and use the appropriate number of 'pluses' when describing someone. That way Amy Schumer could feel better about being plus sized if we made it clear that someone like Adele was plus-plus-plus-sized or triple-plus sized. Edited April 7, 2016 by KD in CT
Jauronimo Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 I am the least sheeple-ish person I know and I absolutely loved the Office. I loved the first 8 or 9 seasons of The Office as well. By most accounts, I have highly critical and picky taste when it comes to comedy. And everything else.

And everything else. The office is hilarious. Bandit has lost points today. Everyone whose had a few jobs has worked with a Stanley, a Phyllis, an Oscar, a Toby, and the MVP Creed.
DC Tom Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 She's not. Plus-sized starts at 12. She's a size six (supposedly).

Everyone whose had a few jobs has worked with a Stanley, a Phyllis, an Oscar, a Toby, and the MVP Creed. Nope...I've worked multiple office jobs, and to me, the entire show was the same joke--hey look, so-and-so is being awkward...hilarious!...and it never resonated with me on any level.

I get it. The show didn't click for me at first either. Some of the characters were pretty funny with a little time. Jmo.

There's a little saying I learned from How I Met Your Mother. If you can't spot the crazy person on the bus, it's you. So maybe you're the Creed or Toby or Dwight at your place of work.

Actually, most of my office jobs were filled with smart-asses or incredibly boring people.
thebug Posted April 7, 2016 Posted April 7, 2016 I like women with curves, but if she is going to carry around a few extra pounds, part of those pounds needs to be held up by a bra and she's a little shy in that department for me.
