Thoughts on "fat" Only fats get annoyed if you say they are fat, yet it is just a matter-of-fact objective descriptive term. If someone approached me and said "You are slender and toned" I wouldn't be annoyed as it is an accurate description. Yet, if the same person said to a fat that they were fat, said fat would oink and get annoyed. This same fat would also probably, on another occasion, post a picture of themselves spilling out of a swimsuit and talk about how they are a happy, confident individual.  Hypocritical hippocrocapigs.
