HOW DARE YOU CALL ME FAT
Mars from Chicken Dinner Candybar does her regular Fat Love Friday and includes Marie from Agent Lover.

Marie is put off by her inclusion on a "fat" list and tells Mars so.

Mars offers to take it down. Marie refuses. Instead, she proclaims on her blog, "oh haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaale no!

Chaos ensues in the comments about fatphobia, body acceptance, fashion sense (or the lack thereof), and kissing-up commentors.

Is Marie brave or is she overreacting?

(I'm in the comments and I know Natalie [the 'overreacting' link], so I am slightly involved in the wank aftermath. It's pretty obvious which side i'm on.)

Yup, those genetically obese mice just need to stop stuffing their faces with mouse food and get on their exercise wheels more often.

I thought there's no solid proof of genetics causing obesity? I tried to find some when my friend was being an ass and making the same kind of suggestions like the starter of this thread, and was surprised to see that apparently obesity can rarely be blamed on genes.
