Cheer up, fellow fat people! We now have our own beauty pageant!
You'll have to go to Italy to participate. And you will have to weigh a bunch -- a BIG bunch.
We're not sure just how much. The news article we "borrowed" from said the winners were a stone woman and a stone man. You have to figure people made of stone would weigh a hell of a lot.
Or it could have been a misprint, and the man and woman were stoned.
Nonetheless.
It's a contest just for us fatties. And it's intended to make fat people feel better about being fat.
Oh, does the word "fat" trouble you? Would you prefer "obese"? Or "overweight"? Or "blubberbutt"?
OK, let's go with "big."
The "big" winners in the Mr. and Mrs. Over Size contest were Fabio Teseo and Giovanna Guidoni.
Let's congratulate them now and call them names later, OK?
