I think Tucker Max is hysterical. I KNOW that his stuff is outrageous and offensive, but I can't help it, I laugh so hard that I cry. In the movie version of I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell there's a line about "Fat girls aren't real people" and I laugh, and find it humorous. Which is quite contrary considering my own status as a Fat Girl. You'd think I'd be offended on behalf of myself and others like me, but I'm not. I shake my head and say "Oh Tucker..." with a laugh.
So I think Tucker Max is funny, so what? How am I inconsistent?
Last night I was talking to a friend, about some girl he had a date with. The date went poorly and I didn't like the girl at all. (Yes I know that it seems random that I would meet a girl on his date... but it was an unusual circumstance. And yes I know, how I feel about the girl does not matter at all.) We were discussing the quickness of the set up and date... and apparently it had to be done in this time scale, and he couldn't meet her too far in advance because if he had met her earlier she'd be too fat for him to date! (apparently she lost like 50 pounds in the last month - and while I don't think he should date her, I'd like to know how she did that!)
Here's the hypocrisy, I'm offended on behalf of this girl (who I admittedly didn't like, but still). He should not date her because of several other qualities, but not because of her weight! Now this guy is one of my good friends, but I kind of want to kick him in the babymaker on behalf of fat girls everywhere!
How is that fair that I think the same basic concept is funny when it comes from Tucker Max, but not from one of my friends?
Yep - that's right - I'm a hypocrite.
