Diners Called 'Fat Girls' On Check From Chilly D's Restaurant

The server was probably just tired of having all his mail addressed to "Enormous *******" and took it out on someone else.

That's Mr. Riff-Raff to you!
If that happened to me, my question for the sever would have been "Have you ever had your ass kicked by a fat man?"
Uncaring, and insensitive to say the least...maybe even actionable, but the girls will get over it I'm sure.

Ask yourselves these questions:
When's the last time you called a stranger "fat" in a nice way? Did you say it to their face? What was their reaction?
Would have been appropriate if the server had listed them as Black girls, Indian girls, Mexican girls, Colored girls, Negro girls, Jew girls, Bimbos, etc. if the term was applicable?
How many fat people do you know that like to call themselves fat?
Fat is an aptly descriptive terms that is typically used in a negative manner like, for instance, Mexican. Most white people I know are afraid to say Mexican around Mexicans, unless they're talking about Mexican food. Why? Because amongst other white people it allows them to convey a negative stereotype quickly in a conversation.
Example:
"What's her problem?"
"She's Mexican"
"Oh, that makes sense."
Take that exchange, and substitute "Mexican" with any other adjective you like (as I did above).
See what I'm saying?
Now, I can't say that "Jeff" (the guy at the restaurant that typed that in) was being descriptive, or derogatory. Either way, it was inappropriate. As a general business practice you should avoid doing things that will piss off customers.
yeah, nothing wrong with that. Lets just start writing "coons" on black peoples checks too right?
Nothing wrong with telling the truth, lots wrong with being an ******* for no reason.
How about "table with 3 girls"?
Next time you go to a restauraunt I hope they write douchebag with the sweatervest on your ticket.
If Jeff had lable'd the ticket "better lovers" or "givers" (same thing), he would have probably gotten a tip instead of hiding.

Now they know, if they didn't know before the message. Love to know what they ordered.
Obesity is epidemic in this society. Maybe shock will work better than patronizing. Hopefully this rude message will affect their habits and lifestyle.

Right, because self-loathing is so much better than being fat.

Yeah, that's what I meant.
BTW, why would they even go mainstream public with this? Is this their moment of fame?
More free cheeseburgers and diet cokes?Yeah, that's what I meant.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I have long wondered, at what point does one have to be when they finally look down and think, "wow, I need to change the lifestyle".

Lets be fair. Maybe Jeff tried the following but they were too long:
Big Boned Girls
Girls with more cushion for the pushin
Pleasantly plump girls
Sir Mix A-Lot Girls
The point is that we just don't know.

Oh come on, you can't possibly believe this. Fat people are so conscious of their weight they often hear fat-insults where there are none and it's done absolutely nothing to stem the tide. And unless you truly think insulting someone is the basis for a cure, this is just bullying.

i feel the same.
not to say that its insensitive. but seriously, is it news worthy? Fat people getting called fat to their face is not news worthy, and barely debatable.
they are fat. if they have a problem with it, then dont be fat.

Pffffttt. They are the ones who went public, so obviously they are proud of their figures. Confusing huh? Conflicting? Mixed message.

Better off silent
Seems to me that logic has flown out the window.
There is one indisputable fact: This was done at a restaurant. You don't insult your customers. PERIOD. Some people might take it a different way, but just the smallest chance of getting someone that won't is enough to just NOT DO IT. Period, period, period! How anyone can argue against that is beyond me.
