Sometimes I think if one more entity mentions weight, fat, skinny, or any variation on the theme of "you aren't acceptable the way you are," I will lose my cool completely and go on a rampage, smashing cottage cheese into the faces of HP executives and force feeding Skinny Cow ice cream sandwiches to the Hollywood media or local fitness Fascists, whichever cross my pathway first.

I read a few of the comments that were left on that page. There was one mentionning that Photoshop lets you do that sort of thing for a while already... the difference is that they didn't make a big fuss about it like HP did It's a questionnable sales strategy, but there's usually no sales strategy without a need that has been voiced. Our society has become a sick one!

All this made me daring enough to take a pic of my belly 'muffin-topping' over my skirt and my hip scarf (and yes, I wear a coined one sometimes too ) and post it as my avatar. I'm not fit, but I'm working on it. In the mean time, I have decided to celebrate my curves, so here's to you, HP!

Awwwww MUFFIN!!

(a bunch of lesbians I used to know used to say that all the time in the 'awww cute!' tone, so I thought I'd offer that)

Go us! Rah rah rah! We may have bellies but we can do things with them that most people cannot even IMAGINE! hah!

NOT having any muffin-top is natures way of telling you your hipscarf is too loose and is going to shimmy down at some point.


Kill, Shanazel, KILL!!!!
