| THINGS TO SAY TO RUDE PEOPLE... 1) Your family say you could do with losing some weight... * YOU SAY... |
| 2) They say 'You're a really skinny stick aren't you?' / 'Have you got anorexia?' * YOU SAY... * I am naturally thin- you know like you're naturally rude! * Small but perfectly formed * Good things come in small packages * I am not a stick- I am a woman with feelings! |
| 3) They say 'You've got no tits' * YOU SAY... * They're bigger than your brain! * Your fly is undone * Thankyou for that intellectual contribution- I feel much better. * Sh*t, I knew I forgot something when I got dressed this morning! * What makes you interested in my breasts? |
| If anyone says anything else rude try this- * Stand or sit up straight * Pause for at least 3 seconds * Make firm eye contact * Use a firm, confident tone to ask your question, or make your statement For example.... 'You're getting fat' (pause) 'Am I?' or 'Aren't you too thin?' (pause) 'No |
| * I have no intention of going on a stupid, impossible diet just so you feel that your outdated prejudices are validated by pressuring me into action which would be counter-porductive and unhealthy, therby reinforcing the self-loathing recommended by you and youre own fears. So, hey, get a life, dickbrain! * I'm sorry, but I just don't care what you think. * Are you trying to give me an eating disorder? * I'm not getting fat, i'm growing. It's this inevitable thing that happens when you're a teenager, like people hassling you. * You're right- i don't have the body of a 12-year old boy. Do you have one you're not using? |
| * We've got 3 choices- you stop hassling me, I get bulimia, or you pay for me to go and live in the Bahamas- which is it to be? * This is the shape I am. You are driving me to become a neurotic, obessesed, miserable person. I want to check with you if that's the point of this, in which case I am putting in an application to join another family. The Simpsons appeal. * Either you accept me the way I am or I'm going to make extra pocket money by conducting guided tours of the sitting room of a dysfunctional family. * Anything else you'd like to criticise? Please write it down so i don't forget. * How kind of you to say so * And you're drop-dead gorgeous |
