.........*slaps face*

Didn't think of the old; link to the old thread thing.... bblllaaaaaaarrrrgg... my bad.

So do we continue on this thread or should I make a new one?

There was Stochastic Fats in Top 10 but he's dead. I suppose some might call Strata in DCU fat but I think she's really blocky and hypermuscled. There's the Penguin, right?

Yes.

Super heroes "traditionally" are not fat. I'm sure we call all cite examples of fat heroes but it's not the norm.

Besides, all that fat held back by thin layers of spandex? No thank you.

So by your reasoning anything outside super strength, energy blasts, and invunerability should be taken out because "its not the norm"?!

Are you really so ignorant to not realize that there are people out there that like fat?
What makes you right and them not?

I'm on the flip side of the coin. I can't stand looking at thin women! Nothing but skin and bones... no thank you.

So instead of accepting that people come in all shapes and forms and like different things you would rather have everything that doesn't conform to your point of view removed?

If you start a new thread about a topic whose last post was Yesterday and only one page back, you get "WHY start a new thread, the last one isn't dead!".

Would it be three days, a couple weeks, longer?

2008 is rather dead, though, I'll give you that.
Last post on this thread as I don't want to keep stirring those nasty hind flies!

As a rule of thumb, I consider anything that hasn't been stirred in over 3 months, old, dead and buried*. Other than that, I'd say it's fair game to have at it!

Also: I have nothing against fat heroes. The sight of all the chubbiness constricted by strained spandex, akin to two little piglets fighting inside a bread sack, would provide much needed guffaw opportunities.

Still think you should open a new thread though.








*make sure to check for breathing though... don't want THAT happening all over again. Bygones.

3 months is a good rule of thumb. Please respect the sanctity of the dead, and reference them rather than dragging them out of the grave. Thanks,
