Wouldn’t you just love to be Miss Jumbo Queen? 
I got as far as
“The annual contest, which aims to raise awareness and money for Thailand’s dwindling elephant population…”
before laughing my ass off. Oh man…
One man’s jumbo is another man’s beauty.
Hey ! I resemble that remark !!
I think it’s great that we Dopers have a place like this where we can just come in and chew the fat.
It gets better. From CBC.ca:
I think the contest is great but they really need to find another way to phrase that. :smack:
Here is a good picture of the winner. (Most of the news pictures are of Miss Jumbo Universe, the heaviest woman in the contest.)
HA!
That made my day, and it’s only 9:30.
I read a riff (sometime, somewhere) on the “roundness” of the “b” sound – butts, boobs, bellies …
Reaction shot of the winner.
So the winner is a Tuba Diva.
She *is * awfully cute; I wish I’d been half as good looking when I was overweight. Actually, to heck with appearances, I’d have liked just an ounce of her self-confidence.
My entire year is made.
