My very fat friend has broken 3 kitchen chairs, 1 office chair, and the springs/suspension of my best friend’s passenger seat. Also broken a toilet off the wall in my best friend’s downstairs bathroom.
The passenger seat is in a 18-yr-old station wagon, so it wasn’t exactly new, but still - it can happen.
I’m not sure what she weighs. She’s refused to check since she passed 340 a couple years ago.
Is it just you and the fattie? If so that’s easy, just say you don’t feel like carpooling anymore. Probably don’t bring up the tubbiness or ruining of seats, unless you’re thinking that maybe your life needs more drama or you are in a dick mood. Otherwise, I’d skip it.
If, however, you’ve got a whole gaggle of carpoolers and you’re wanting to exclude the heftiest among them, that’s a lot trickier. I don’t think there’s a drama-free way to do that. You could try getting pretty creative with white lies, but I don’t think that’s going to play. Best bet is probably, again, just stating that you don’t feel like carpooling anymore.
Or, I guess you could just lay it out there. Depends on the dude(tte). Some people are super touchy about their weight, others not so much.
Thank you.
Indeed. I just opened this thread because it makes my brain play this song to me. And I looooove a bit of Weird Al
Make it fun like an amusement park! How about a hoop they have to step into - “You must be smaller than this big around to ride this ride”?
