Elementary, practical, and yet appropriate as always
Okay, that anonmeme is seriously bumming me out.
I can't stand that there just seems to be this bastion of people that apparently are so shallow about appearances that they'd attack Patrick for being overweight/balding/etc. People are so obsessed with thin, sculpted, prepared looks that anything that's bigger than a size 2 is automatically disgusting, apparently; Patrick doesn't stand a chance.
It just...hurts, you know? I mean, I'm offended on his behalf, but it's not like we can all meet that kind of standard. It's horrible to think that all attractiveness boils down to what you look like rather than everything else that actually makes up a person. People would rather have nothing where there could be so much.
Fuck you, fandom. Fuck you sideways with a wooden spoon.
