Offbeat: Dear morbidly obese woman: What you’re doing isn’t honorable

Meet Donna Simpson, who’s TRYING to become the world’s fattest woman. At 12,000 calories a day, her svelte 600-pound frame should be up to 1,000 in no time flat. source

    so? has nothing to do with “honor” (i’m referencing your tweet).

    She’s actively trying to become the world’s fattest woman. Maybe that’s just me, but that doesn’t seem like an honorable thing to attempt to do. It’s dangerous and will likely kill her.

    Honor, or lack thereof, has everything to do with it.

    Where’s the link to the actual website? I want to see more about this shenanigans.

    I have to admit I looked for the website of her eating but I couldn’t find it. I need to keep looking more I guess.

    well, i agree it’s stupid and dangerous, but i feel “honor” is an irrelevant (but as a former copyeditor, i’m perhaps overly nitpicky about words). btw, i like your blog a lot. excellent idea and name :D

    Egoist. Why doesn’t she donate 10,000 calories to the needy. She doesn’t need 12,000 calories, and the rest of us certainly don’t need a 450kg person.
