Big, fat, web-ring

So, on the message board of the best zine distro I know, someone posted a request for fat-positive blogs that she could link to/create a webring with. She's planning a fat-positive blog of her own. You can’t view the thread on the board unless you’re registered, but if anyone out there is interested, you should drop Sheana a message at:

sheana@patitoincognito.com

She says she’s looking for "blogs whose topic is either fat-positive-ness or that are by fat-positive authors (who might mention their opinions on the subject now and then)" I think a lot of you out there would qualify but I figure you can identify yourselves if you wanna be linked.

I think this sounds interesting and like a good idea but, can I say as an aside, that "fat-pos blogs" is a phrase that really grosses me out.

fat- pos blogs. fat-pos blogs. fat-pos blogs. weird. funk soul brother.

yeah, I think i'll go change that title. That was actually just a place-keeper and I forgot to go back and be all clever and shit.

thanks, sister.

well, you can see I gave up on clever. I almost used the word "fatties" but then I realized that any hippies wandering by might get the wrong idea. Oh well, anything was better ...

You should have used the phrase

Phatty boom blatty.

That would have been classy.

That is all.

Bornbent, why don't you live near me? You're completely right about the injustice "fat-pos blogs" does to the tounge.

[gordonzola.livejournal.com]

It's my fault really. We made an agreement not to live within 400 miles of each other and you live too close to me, Amatoxic.

[amarama.livejournal.com]

Ach, damn you and your proximity!

Hi Cuties!

It's true- i can't live too close to G because he cannot keep up with my exhausting and surprisingly specific sexual demands. Who can, really?

so, peeps, I am coming to town next weekend and want us to drink together. Wanda will be there too. Friday night (10/24)? Dr. B's?

I most certainly want to hang out with you while you're here. Friday is usually date night for me and Felix, and the only day we're usually guaranteed to have childcare. But I can also possibly move date night. I'll have to get back to you, but will still be clamoring to see you.

I don't specifically want to be linked, but here are some:

I see that you want me to email her, but I'm choosing to ignore that.
