I shop exclusively in the shark section.

You either get to man up and deal with whats on your plate (which the women in the article is doing, good for her) or complain and eat a bagel. Also I'm still ginger, if not more so. :v

how self-serving to your ego is it to call people little bitches and talk shit about fat people on the internet.

Well i mean whales are big and XXL clothes are big, seems logical for a themed store such as this

this seems like a whale of a problem [editline]28th July 2013[/editline] i bet the offended people were whaling [editline]28th July 2013[/editline] i bet this didn't sit whale with some people

[QUOTE=Zeke129;41622380]I complain a lot I'm doing it now basically Complaining burns a lot of calories[/QUOTE] And posting on facepunch adds a lot of calories.

[QUOTE=AkujiTheSniper;41622472]A harpoon[/QUOTE] at least you didn't say harpun because i would have probably jumped off the nearest pier [editline]28th July 2013[/editline] wait fuc

If it were just the XL sizes with a different name I could understand, but it's obviously a gimmick with the store, they could have named it sea cow, ya cunt. Shrimp is considered an insult for small people, did she care? nah. Yeah I'm aware shrimp is far less of an insult than whale, but that's only due to fat people giving the reaction bullies are looking for when they say it. You'd think with how rotund these people are they'd have an easier time rolling stuff like this off their shoulder.

[QUOTE=Zeke129;41622455]Whale whale whale, that's a whale of a pun[/QUOTE] These whalepuns are so Shamusing

[QUOTE=Parakon;41622527]Shrimp is considered an insult for small people, did she care? nah.[/QUOTE] Well the article says she brought up both Reading burns calories too

The real joke in this thread is that facepunch hates fat people, while in reality most facepunchers probably are obese.

[QUOTE=Jimmyshimmy;41622538]These whalepuns are so Shamusing[/QUOTE] i thought the worst had already passed but i underestimated humanity's ability to be so malicious

Some of the quotes used in this article :v: [QUOTE]“Pretty insensitive, eh? I guess they are trying to be funny and marine-themed,” wrote Joanne Nicholson.[/QUOTE] Well. Yes. They are. That's the whole idea. [QUOTE]“How about an anorexic section?” suggested Brian Peterman. “Why do people feel so comfortable pickin’ on people with weight issues?”[/QUOTE] They have the shrimp-sign, dude. Really, if it was [I]just[/I] a whale sign for fat people, and then regular L, M, S, XS signs on the rest, I could see the grounds for the butthurt. But they all appear maritime-themed, so it's kinda the logical fuckin' thing to go with from the store's gimmick.

the owner of the store should of gotten a degree in whale biology, that way they can get away with saying anything
