Wonkette operative "Allen E." passes on this notice from the Federal Transit Administration about Americans being so fat now that the government standards for average passenger weight need to be "updated." Because otherwise, the buses are going to fall apart under the strain of carrying today's obese American:
I'm a fatass...but I can make myself really small when I fly. If you happen to sit next to me I promise not to sweat on your or fart (unless you're into that.).
The surest way to get per-pound fares is for Obama to propose airline fares be "one size fits all". The Repubican outrage* at such airfare socialism will lead to the by-weight fares. ___________________ * Gingrich will be opposed to weight-based fares. Also Barbor. Christie. Huckabee.
Wall-E is such a visionary film.
Elitist!!!! The common man knows you can't git no takeout from the goldurn buffet!
And just how many Hoverounds have to be stored on these buses?

A modest proposal indeed.
