Angelina Posted November 15, 2016 Share Posted November 15, 2016 The big fat woman on the overground this morning who objected to anyone trying to get on "can't you see I'm here, why are you pushing? I am a human being" and then proceeded to suck her teeth (which is absolutely disgusting). I felt like telling her there was a pregnant woman squashed in and we were trying to make room, but I doubt there would have been space in her heart for anyone other than herself.I also felt like telling her to not travel during rush hour, be more considerate and stop huffing and puffing.I also felt like telling her she was taking up more space than anyone else. Geez, I must have been in a bad mood.

Sounds like you think fat people should have less right to travel at busy times and that size makes it OK to insult someone (you may not have done it at the time but you have online). Really? What if she has health problems or medication that has made her put on weight? I don't understand why you didn't just tell her you were making room for a pregnant woman.

Would your attitude be the same for someone who was not of a large size but chose to stand in the way? Or was it simply due to the fact that this woman was clearly of a larger size and therefore must be causing the issue right away?Grrr Rational Rage Rising Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/5840-tiny-little-things-that-cause-you-irrational-rage/page/181/#findComment-1072830 Share on other sites More sharing options...
