Today, I nervously flirted with a very cute guy. Being a little overweight, I rarely think cute guys will go for me. This line of thinking was yet again correct when he casually pulled his sleeve up revealing a tattoo of a pinup girl with a "NO FAT CHICKS" sign below it. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the only girl who likes me is a girl who is overweight and uses body acceptance as a reason to get mad at me for turning her down. Call me shallow but as someone who works out frequently, I don't want someone who douses herself with tattoos, thinking guys will fetishize her, instead of self-care. FML
Today, I was talking to my boyfriend about how I'm self conscious about my weight. He looks at me and says, "Don't worry babe, I've always been kind of a chubby chaser." FML
Today, I was wearing a new tank top that was really cute. I later was talking to an attractive guy and thought he was giggling at me because he thought I was being cute and funny. I then realized he was giggling at the fact that I'd only shaved one armpit. FML
Today, I saw a really cute guy in the grocery store. We made eye contact a few times and I was trying to work up the nerve to start a conversation. Instead, he screamed, "Yes, I know I’m fat, bitch. You don’t have to stare!” I got so many dirty looks I left immediately. I didn’t think he was fat. FML
Today, I was trying to look cute in front of this really nice guy. I sure hope he thinks smacking into a pole, rebounding backwards and knocking over an old man is cute. FML
Today, I went out with a guy who, about 20 minutes into our dinner, said, "Wow, you don't sweat much for a fat chick." FML
Today, a cute guy asked me if I was single. When I said yes, he said "Yeah, you look like the type", and walked away. FML
Today, I recieved a message on MySpace from a cute guy I've been talking to for a while. It read, "I saw a girl in Old Navy at the mall last night that looked a lot like you, but she was much fatter." I was in Old Navy at the mall last night. FML
Today, I sent a guy that I like a lot a picture of myself. I'd got all dressed up sexy and did my make-up. He sent me a reply saying, "Your cat is fat." FML
Today, I was at the gym, when a pretty overweight guy started staring and eventually taunting me. Let me tell you, lines such as "Lay off the cake, fatty!" and "I can see your gut hanging out your ass, for fuck's sake!" don't exactly boost one's self-confidence. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

That's when you wish you had a tat saying "no douche bags allowed"

Gross. Such a stupid tattoo would kill my lady boner anyway, so good riddance.

YDI because your fat and your not doing anything about it

For what it's worth, I suppose it's better to see the proof of his assbag nature that's literally tattooed on himself rather than make further attempts of getting to know him and waste any more of your time. It's all on the surface with this one.

Anyone who actually has that tattooed on their body has got to be a total ass. Most people have preferences, most people have things they find attractive and things they don't, some might even be more vocal about it than is generally considered polite, but going through what looks like a fairly painful procedure to get a permanent body marking proclaiming such preferences is just plain absurd. (Not to mention, how ridiculous is that going to look if this guy gets fat someday?) I will say, though, the nice thing about people like that is you know right away they're ass-hats so then you don't have to waste time trying to figure out if they are or not.

You don't want someone trashy enough to get that tattooed on themselves anyway.

Remind me again how he's a douche? Because he has a tattoo expressing how he feels? That's the problem with today, everybody gets sympathy, nobody is told to get up and do something about it. Having a distaste for overweight girls is OKAY, I don't date overweight girls. Doesn't make me a "douche". I also have the right to advertise it however I please, just like the guy with a tattoo.

Amen to that comment. Just because he wasn't interested and told her so in a very blunt way, in no way makes him a douche. Maybe she could lose that "little overweight" that she explicitly mentioned in her post. I don't this this is a YDI or a FML, it's more like deal with it and move on.

He has the right to date whoever he wants, and if he isn't attracted to overweight girls then that's fine. However, saying "no fat chicks" to an overweight girl, or to anyone, is not okay. It's mean and probably made her feel pretty horrible about herself. A simple "I don't think you're my type" would have been fine.

Having a preference doesn't make him a douche, it's how he chose to express it. If you need that explained to you that's unfortunate. You can't fix stupid, here's your sign.

You have all the right in the world to advertise your preference however you want. No one is disputing that. HOWEVER People generally dislike assholes and they generally prefer that others don't treat them in that sort of manner. She's not getting sympathy because she's a little overweight, as you assume. We sympathize because we have a distaste for douchebags. And I couldn't hold this one back: To look at this guy as rational in any way is just...stupid. Come on. You can't be that dim.
