Uber Driver Fat Shamed + Sized Fat Model.. threatens to boycott Uber

[NatePsy]

Don't know her and don't care. She'll be dead before me anyway.

[HumbleDuck]

I think she is in the right to boycott Uber if she isn't happy with their service, and frankly it's rude what the driver said, also I think there should be a " no talk to the passengers" policy when it comes to taxis, It can get really annoying.

It really does. I don't care having to hear about football or hockey, when I can't stand either. Especially when I'm paying for a ride.

I got no issue with making small-talk with a cabbie. They're human beings too, not just slaves or automatons.

Also, I don't come from an anti-social background/culture.

Well... she is fucking fat. And she's making a living out of it, so she's not delusional to think otherwise.

Probably just wanted free PR, so she started conversation to provoke driver.

something like 5'2" and in the 270+ range... She's a full foot shorter than me, but has over 50 lbs on me...



Since this is the image that pops up when you google her I think she needs to take a step back and think about whether she really does in fact care.

NSFW tag this man. This is outrageous.

The facts are:

- they're both fat
- they're both unhealthy
- he's a hypocrite
- she claims to not care about being fat but really cares a lot and just wishes she didn't (and wasn't)
- fat acceptance is as much bullshit as smoking acceptance

What's it to you? It's not like you are working anyways.

Dunno, but when I was in law school our touch-as-nails paralegal who was twice my age came into my office wiping away tears because one of the partners had said something really shitty to her about her weight. I can't remember what he said exactly but it I remember it was pretty bad, also completely irrelevant to her job function.


Uh he's certainly not "barely overweight" and is clearly well into the obese range. Honestly it's irrelevant to the story but I think people are so used to seeing overweight and obese people that they don't know what obesity looks like anymore unless the person is in the "grossly obese" category.

What is irrelevant is his weight actually. He could be taking steps into trying to lose weight whereas we know for 100% fact she is not because she glorifies it. That is why his weight is irrelevant and hers is. If you can provide proof to say that he revels in being fat much like she does then you can claim he's a hypocrite. Also I greatly disagree with the obese on his part. If he's obese she's morbidly obese.

It matters. I don't log in to this website to see such photos. It is unacceptable and disrespectful to us all.

[Celista]

I did, and I think he's more like 135-150. So 50 would be doable ^^

He's definitely around that. No way is he 200 lbs, unless he is very short.

[Barnabas]

Oh boy the idiot says that obesity isn't a health concern?

[Independent voter]

That's a whole lot of woman right there.

[zenkai]

This must mean all Uber drivers are terrible and all Taxi drivers are awesome! Do we need a news story over every little thing these days?

Next on MSNBC, Senator passes gas creating chemical warfare.

I could deal with the chubby more than I could deal with the tattoos.

[pateuvasiliu]

That ain't no plus size model it's a goddamn whale.

[Elim Garak]

There's nothing healthy about being fat a.k.a. plus sized. But it's nobody's business but the fat person's. So shut your clap about it unless asked directly.

[Deleted]

The driver suffers from obesity in the same way his victim does.

No. She's fatter than him.

[JohnnyTheCherriesLover]

Everyone's getting offended by everything these days.

[Dug]

No. She's fatter than him.

Yeah the 400 pound person isn't obese anymore because they're standing next to a 500 pound person.
