r/TalesofFatHate 03 Oct 2014 ================ A cow just asked for my seat on the bus... (self.TalesofFatHate) submitted 24 days ago by trickfingersz First of all, i'm from Argentina so please don't hate me if my writing isn't good. Today I was on the bus going home. It was full of people, but I found a seat rather quickly. Then, a 150kg cow comes on. She asked me in a disgustingly rude way to get off my seat and give it to her because she is a "handicapped person". I calmly refused, because she had no body problems, except for being fat, and because I wasn't on a reserved seat. Guess what? Everyone on the bus started insulting me, telling me to learn how to respect people and to be a gentleman. Some woman gave her place to the beast. Are they fucking stupid? She was a rude, disgusting piece of shit, and wasn't handicapped because she had to climb a few steps to get on the bus and one more to get to my place, doing it without any problems. I'm so upset now. ----- maybe-drunk Don't be upset, you did nothing wrong. I don't see why you should respect any stranger demanding anything from you, fat or otherwise. --- trickfingersz[S] I'm upset because being fat is starting to be accepted in my country. They are getting privileges. [this probably means they don't have to pay extra for seats, and are going to wreck the healthcare system, and other things they do once they reach critical mass and have enough pull with the government. no joke.] --- G-42 I find legitimately handicapped people rarely demand anything, let alone special treatment. In my experience, they tend to make the most of what they have. They're also more likely to suspect that you might also be handicapped, even if you appear not to be. It's the phonies, like the fat fucks or the disability frauds, who make demands for special treatment. [one of my favorite posters on these boards was someone in a wheelchair. turns out that poster was the favorite of another board visitor. wheelchair poster was terminally, severely ill. one night i sent her a PM to tell her she was my favorite poster on those boards, and she was touched. some time later, she just stopped posting altogether. another poster asked where her favorite user went.] --- dreamyta Man, if that ever happens to me I would wanna do exactly what you did but when after all the stupid passengers start ganging up on me for not being considerate towards fatabled people, I'd fake cry and tell them I just had a miscarriage and that I need to sit down or I'll faint or something. Watch them all feel bad and maybe realize the fatass was acting entitled as fuck. [instead of trying to one-up you] --- kurokame $ units You have: 150 kilograms You want: pounds * 330.69339 --- Rainwound This happened to me recently too but she claimed to be pregnant (doubted it, but it was impossible to tell), so I couldn't say no. The reason why I was riding the bus was that I was carrying about >6 kg of vegetables and those bags made it impossible for me to walk home (I can take 2 or 3 kg. I save at least $15 a week on bus fare by walking). I think I cried on the inside a little but I had no choice but to stand up. Thankfully the lady I was sitting next to took pity on me and held some of my bags until I got down. --- redherpbluederp Actual handicapped people don't like to make a big fuss about it. They don't want the attention for it. You did the right thing. [this is going to be a consistent thing you'll notice among all "true vs false" divisions] === rcv jan 2021 i once met someone just like who OP met. ripe for the trolling.
