Fat Jokes
I wonder why, (when over 60% of Americans are overweight, and in these days of everything having to be so politically correct), the emaciated writers in the entertainment industry still think fat jokes are funny, or for that matter, appropriate!
I think they do it because they are beholden to sponsors who make money off of people's anxieties. If we thought we were supposed to be skinny, maybe we'd buy more diet products, more beauty products, more clothes that are supposed to be becoming, etc.
