So Jezebelle and I went out to get another KitchenAid Professional Series Stand Mixer and the sales lady was your average obese poodle haired/wigger bob/ bang sporting middle aged woman. She takes one look at us and the first thing that comes across her face is a look of incredible disbelief and the next thing out of her mouth was, "You two are thin people, what`re you going to use this thing for?" (mockingly). To which I replied:
"Cakes, cookies, buttercream, Boiled Icings, Ice Cream, Meat Grinding, Vegetable Slicing, Pie Doughs. Everything, as we cook everyday."
Her response: "Really? Interesting....." (voice trailing off, clearly not trying to make any attempt in masking her disbelief) "I just don`t get it."
We tried to do our best in explaining a bit of how we both pull off this surprising (not really) feat, but I could tell little sunk in due to the glazed look of her eyes due to the mind shock she could not overcome. She took us to be charlatans/liars so we just gave up and left the topic alone. We ended up buying the mixer in Imperial Black and bought an extra Rotor Slicer as well.
If the above scenario were flipped to the opposite in which Jezebelle and I were obese, I don`t think she could have gotten away with saying, " You two are fat, I doubt you need this thing". I don`t even believe she would have made any such comment.
Fats think they can push the boundaries when it comes to thin/in-shape/normal weighing people. Of course I do recognize we are a rarity these days and discrimination does occur when the norm is upset and the balance of "normalcy" is shifted or disrupted. (although in actuality we are normal weighing people, not the fats which has become the per capita, collective norm of the United States)
Us twinks are supposed to keep our mouths shut when it comes to Fats, but they get a free pass? Is that how it is these days?
