Seems that it's acceptable to poke fun at and bash Americans these days and part of that is making fun at how fat Americans are in addition to critisizing everything American. "Americans are ignorant, Americans are loud, Americans only care about themselves, Americans are greedy, Americans are fat,American food is horrible, American culture is bad bad bad..... I think if people would replace the words American with the words Arab, French,black, homosexual, ......... they'd see how ignorant their criticisms realy are. Demonizing any one group is unacceptable period. Well it should be yet if it's Americans being demonized , well that's ok. Sad really Try being overweight and American in France.

I know where you're coming from as I was also the fat smart kid growing up. People don't realize how these judgements still hurt. However, according to them "I can always lose the weight" (and I can) but they will forever be jerks. Don't let the ignorant upset you. Karma.
