Man I remember doing a report on online advertising and The Million Dollar Homepage in middle school. Is it really that old?

jackmulligan:
I think that in a sense, the whole discussion boils down to the issue of personal responsibility, and the implications of shifting the consequences and responsibilities regarding our own actions to somebody else (i.e, McDonald's, tobacco companies, healthcare system), or even worse, not recognizing any responsibility at all.

I tried to sum it up here:

it's in spanish though, so be warned

lauren!:
Faye has said herself that she knows she's not obese, she's just comparatively bigger than the other girls.  I don't get why this woman is so adamant about getting her point across that Jeph is sexist and sizeist, when really, it's just a character he's created, and that's who she is.  And for the most part, nobody has a problem with Faye's weight problem, they just bring it up every once in awhile, and she serves it right back to them.

Dude, it's a fucking comic strip.  Go whine how everybody on the Simpsons is a fatty, and grow another chin. 

jackmulligan:
Matt Groening is a sizeist!!!

He portrays Bart (who has a large tummy, funny no one has noticed that after all these years) as a mischievous kid, ergo Matt Groening thinks all fat kids are trouble kids

That's the kinda logic that girl uses
