Calling things "fat" or "heavy" is fattist. We should all say "rotund" instead.

As in did you hear that beat??
It was ROTUND!!
Obvious troll is obvious.
I'll never understand why some people think it's "funny" to do fish for negative attention.
It just comes across as a dumb joke. I don't think they're trolling. Especially considering the post body.
I'm saying "you're all a bunch of stupid motherfuckers for caring about this trivial shit and I just wanted to vent because you consume so much air i sometimes can't breathe"
Ur mom is rotund
And last night her and I were getting hot and rotund.
See, this is family friendly!
I mean, other than trying to make a lame joke/troll instead of an actual showerthought, rotund is a damn nice word. It's the visual equivalent of onomatopoeia. Kind of like lanky, or glint, it's a word that sounds like it looks.
Hey, Bobby, did you see that rotund hedgehog at the fence today?
What, Ron Jeremy is back in town?
No, jackass, the little erenaceid critter with a round, spiny body and a cute face
Well, I didn't see that, but I did once see Ron Jeremy banging some coke head that had a silver and jeweled buttplug in, she was lanky, manky, and that plug glinted in the camera lights.
Why are you obsessed with Ron Jeremy, Bobby?
What? You're the one that brought him up in some weird example to explain the visual onomatopeia, not me.
I didn't fucking bring up Ron Jeremy!
He's the hedgehog, everyone thinks of him when they hear that word, that's just a fact.
Fuck you, Bobby, fuck you.
That is rotundist!!!
I will have you know that my best friend is rotund.
The word "fat" is not a slur any more than the word "black" is. Sure, someone can use it with an intent to hurt, and if the only thing you know about a person is this single adjective you probably shouldn't be talking about them, but the word is just a description. And just like for "black", all the euphemisms offer nothing helpful and are largely spread by people who have not lived and understood the experience.
If you're worried about being fat-phobic the thing to be worried about is treating fat people like shit based on their physical appearance. Up to and including shaming them for "not putting in the effort" or lecturing them about how unhealthy you think they are based on the single point of evidence of their apparent weight.
And I have to say, I'd be WAY more fucking mad at someone calling me "rotund" then fat. Holy shit you have missed the mark on this.
Not to mention: in many cases, a person can do something about being fat, whereas black people… are black.
In fact, I’d argue that trying to lump being fat into the same camp as racial or gender or sexual identity is actually offensive to the latter groups, and diminishes actual vulnerable groups who are targeted based on their identity, who continue to struggle for civil rights and recognition to this day.
Here would be an almost textbook example of what I mean when I say shaming people for not putting in the effort, for any onlookers that are curious.
Of course, the actual clinical data shows that it is nearly impossible to make permanent lifestyle changes that reduce weight for normal people -- all diets studies have almost hilariously high dropout/failure rates -- and that nearly all people who are not fat are not putting in any special effort to not be fat. But this guy's an expert.
Not to mention that OP really means the word "phat", which seems to have come from the 60's or 80's meaning sexy and attractive. It has nothing to do with a person's weight.
