deleted by user I think I've told this story before, but I used it in a comment and someone said it warranted its own post so here's a post about fats thinking the world revolves around them (I mean, dat gravitational pull) so here's a story.  Early this year I was diagnosed with stage 1A cervical cancer. Not a huge deal, really awesome 5 year survival, only one surgery needed, "in remission" (honestly I'm cured but that's just not doctor speak I guess).  I had the surgery on a Friday evening way the fuck away from where I live because that's where the best cancer center was/where my oncological surgeon was. The surgery itself requires general anesthesia as they cut out a piece of your cervix and if you move during it apparently bad shit happens.  A friend came with me because they wouldn't let me leave alone (had to stay several hours, but they let us go home). They made us promise to take a taxi but we took public tansport (subway) instead.  I was given a pin that said in my country'a language (Asia) "Please Yield Your Seat", essentially saying I could sit in the disabled section since for a few weeks after the surgery I was in pain. After the surgery I was exhausted and nauseous and on pain killers. So we're on the subway, it's peak Friday hours, and I'm in a disabled seat with a nice elderly woman next to me and my friend standing right next to me.  Gonna basically just copy paste my comment from here because I'm on mobile.  On tumbles a (western) piggy who looks 50 so is probably 20, and she looks at me and rolls her eyes and then huffs and stomps and makes a big deal. My friend and I exchange glances. A few stops later fatty who has been forced to stand (the horror), comes up to me and asks me to move since because of her disability she can't stand for more than a few minutes. "No." I said. Ham told me I didn't need the seat. I pointed to the button which said I had a right to be there. Hammy switches to the country's language (which surprised me, because I'd assumed it was a tourist) and loudly asks me why I am being so rude and won't move for her to sit when she has a disability. I look at her and very loudly in the country's language say "because I just had my cancer surgically removed, I am tired and nauseous and uncomfortable, and unlike you I have this button which clearly asks others to yield their seats to me." The Hammy's intended shaming backfired. Everyone who heard my response looked pretty disgusted with her. She looked fairly shocked and turned red, and got off at the next stop. I apologized to the elderly woman sitting next to me for causing a scene (not done in Asia) and she told me something like "don't worry. I'm sure you will recover quickly because you are slim and healthy." As much as I love that the Ham literally got off the train because it was so humiliated, I can only imagine the Tumblr post it made about the rude anorexic girl who wouldn't yield her seat.  I bet she took one of the disabled seats on the next train, too.
