No, I think discussing my balls falls within the rules. After all, they affect everyone!
Affectionate little bastids.
Kansas and Missouri both do. I finally put a semi-reasonable weight since I’ve put on a lot since high school.
As for the OP… you need to lurk more, obviously. Your posting style will do nothing for you but get you ridiculed… as it did here.
You making rude comments is the same as they making rude comments. End of story.
Question:
Is this an example of irony or hippocracy?
So does Illinois. I haven’t had an Ohio license for years but they used to require it as well. I’m guessing it’s a holdover from pre-photo days, for identification purposes. Kinda funny, actually, because there’s a standing folk-joke about nobody telling the truth about it.
Mine reads 15 pounds lighter than I actually am now. It was accurate four years ago but by-gum I’m gonna get back to it!
No matter, because I’d still look like a dork in the photo.
I think “hippocracy” is irony.
Down with the hippocracy! Power to the skinny people!
(I’m sorry, I don’t know if that was intentional or no, but it was too good a setup to pass up.)
If it’s not one way, it’s the other. Mine looks like a mugshot.
Is there something wrong with a hippo-ruled society? Are you prejudiced against hippos?

Actually, a proper hippocracy wouldn’t be ruled by hippopotamuses.
It would be more like the Country of the Houyhnhnms, from Gulliver’s Travels.

My brand spanking new Colorado license has the weight I (heh,heh) told them I was. They seized the Ohio license I’d had for eight months, so I don’t remember if there was a weight on it, BUT, while I’m here, let me tell you, Ohio had the WORST FUCKING PICTURE I’ve EVER seen of myself! EVER. I wear glasses, and the lady had me look down (to reduce reflection) and peer up (to show my eyes) so I looked like I was plotting a mass murder, and my hair is salt-and-pepper (90% salt) and my beard is salt-and-pepper (70% salt) and they both looked YELLOW! Not blonde, yellow. I swear, I can look at pictures from when I was 19, with skanky long hair wearing a flowered shirt and bellbottoms, and I’m not 1/10 as embarassed as I was by that one single driver’s license photo.
OK, I’m working myself into a fit; I’m done.
Yep, that sounds like my Ohio license, all right, minus the beard. (Only because I’m female, mind, though such details were obscured by the pure hideousness of the photo.) The clerk growled at me, “Don’t smile!”, so I looked both sinister and embalmed. Lizzie Borden, perhaps, suspect with either buggy whips or axes.
With that ugly mug, who’d even bother with trifling things like weight?
I’m going to write a dissertation analyzing the OP. It is truly worthy of deep thought.
Just a theory as to why the OP has so damn many line breaks. He/She/It has a low monitor resolution, and is using hard returns at the end of the line in the message box. Apparently, He/She/It hasn’t lurked quite long enough to infer that around these parts, we use a little thing called “word wrap”.
At least He/She/It doesn’t use ‘u’ for “you”, ‘r’ for “are”, etc. But the Pit is a spectacularly bad choice for one’s first post, perhaps second only to GD. I’ve lurked for YEARS, and I’m still loath to go there.
Lazlo, who does know how to use a spell checker.
I think when used by and about women the word “skinny” usually is intended as a compliment, or at least a value-neutral word, like “long” in “Wow, your hair is so long!” In most cases people probably don’t mean to be insulting. Sometimes they do (when I was a 5’7" 115 lbs. teenager I got my share of truly mean-spirited remarks), but often not.
Of course, commenting on other people’s physical appearance for no reason is still annoying and stupid, even if the comments are neutral. I’m sure women with long hair get sick of hearing about it all the time too. I’d rank such remarks up there with jokes or comments on people’s names – they’ve surely heard it before countless times, and even if what you want to say is perfectly innocent it’s going to be irritating from repetition alone.
Waaah! Waaah! I’m 5’7" and under 120 pounds! Feel sorry for poor little me! Waah Waah! Waaaaaaaaaaaaah!
You’re probably so skinny because you’re using up all that excess energy obsessively hitting the “.” key.
