**alounacara** , welcome to the SDMB. There are a few rules around here; most are expansions of the most basic one, “don’t be a jerk.” Trolling – posting something for the sake of getting a negative reaction – is one example of behavior that is against the rules. I suggest you actually read our [registration agreement](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=423183), which spells them out. If you have questions about this, you’ll find answers to many of them linked to from [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=562482). We do expect people to obey these rules; those who choose not to do not last long. Thanks for your cooperation **twickster** , for the SDMB ---

I think we should agree on some sort of threshold weight at which it is acceptable to peek at people. Here is something to get us started. \<100lbs - probably a child, or one of those creepy skinny people - may not peek. 100lbs-150lbs - most likely one of those weird people obsessed with their body fat percentage - may not peek. 150lbs-200lbs - perfect peeking weight, may even use binoculars and night vision goggles. 200lbs-250lbs - either grotesquely muscle bound or too fat or too tall - may not peek. 250lbs-300lbs - even worse then the previous group - definitely may not peek. 300lbs\> - upsets **alounacara** - may not peek under the penalty of death. ---

> [@El\_Kabong](#): > > At what weight would peeking at you be permissible? Its like checked luggage at the airport. Up to 250 lbs is okay, but anything above that and you have to pay a surcharge, and then you’re permitted to peep. Unless you’re flying Spirit, then you have to weigh nothing. ---

Okay, I’m not a bitch. I can’t help it if the fat gives me an incredible rack. But I am sloppy. I do my best, but sometimes the Cheetos just don’t make it into my mouth, ya know? Luckily my gut catches them so instead of reaching for the bag all I have to do is reach down. And I thought you liked it when I looked in your window. Yes, you close the blinds, but then you look through them like a game of peek-a-boo. Haha, peek-a-boo, I SEE YOU! ---
