Damned's Journal: Observation made while irritable

Preface:
        I attend a University that has a horrible parking situation. Consequently, the campus shuttles are overfilled at certain times of the day. A few days ago I had the luck of arriving at a particular parking lot early enough to get a seat and observe those who were not so lucky. I was rather irritable at the time, and while observing those who were standing I had an interesting thought.

Fat people are inconsiderate. Two or more regular sized people could have fit on the shuttle in the space that one fat person occupied. That is at least one more person who could have made it to class on time. There was also the side thought that the extra demand for food caused by the amount of food they consume raises the price of food for me.

This does not apply to those who are slightly overweight. It, likewise, does not apply to those with a legitimate medical condition (i.e. hypothyroidism) that bring about such a state.

I will probably end up deleting this before too long as it is just a thought that flashed across my mind on an irritable morning.
