Obese Children Are Fat: FA(c)T
FAT children are not “obese”. FA(c)T!
After yesterday’s news that children will be taught how to be fat, and given a school report to prove the fact, comes an update.
Ministers do not want the word “obese” to be used in the letters home.
For one thing, it is harder to spell than “fat” and, secondly, research shows that people find it “highly offensive”.
How this research was conducted the Government does not care to say, but it is believed that a representative mix of schoolchildren were stood in line and called names. Tears were collected in a bucket.
The league table of Fat Tears is as follows:
Obese
Pig
Fatty
Lardy
Fatso
Whale
Monumental
Big boned
Statuesque
Massive
Jelly Belly
Metabolically challenged
Prescott
Overweight
