Society & Culture Things that s**t me part X- The Tenth edition!

[Off The Couch]

Don't know the song.

But would there be something wrong with having the same message...?

Why would you need two of the same messages. I got the first one

 

[BotsMaster]

Clearly you aren't all about that bass

Bass?

 

[Scotland]

What's wrong with Meghan Trainor?

I do hate that bass song though. Good message but.

Good message? What?

Song 1 - it's OK to be fat
Song 2 - men are liars

Yep, she's a wonderful role model.

 

[BALKAN]

Personally I think Meghan Trainor is grotesque.

 

[TheFreshBanana]

Good message? What?

Song 1 - it's OK to be fat
Song 2 - men are liars

Yep, she's a wonderful role model.

No clue about the second song but that's not how I've interpreted the first song and depending on what you mean by fat, I would say it is okay.

 

[Scotland]

No clue about the second song but that's not how I've interpreted the first song and depending on what you mean by fat, I would say it is okay.

Cliffs for the second one are that if your lips are moving then you are lying.

How did you interpret the first song? 'Don't worry about your size' doesn't exactly promote healthy body image.

I wouldn't say encouraging obesity is a good message

 

[dales.girl38]

Clearly you aren't all about that bass 'bout that bass no treble.

Ohhh, I thought she was saying 'no trouble'. Oops.

 

[Shell]

Ohhh, I thought she was saying 'no trouble'. Oops.

 

[RedmanWasHere]

Ohhh, I thought she was saying 'no trouble'. Oops.

Thought the same too.

 

[TheFreshBanana]

And where does it encourage obesity?

Don't be an idiot and think anything other than the Hollywood skinny is "obesity".

Cliffs for the second one are that if your lips are moving then you are lying.

How did you interpret the first song? 'Don't worry about your size' doesn't exactly promote healthy body image.

Errrr yes it does.

Or do you think eating disorders are healthy?

 

[dales.girl38]

I am choosing to blame her for this

 

[Off The Couch]

It's about being happy with what you were born with - tall, short, no arse, big arse etc. and that so much is fake and impossible to emulate

Don't know where anybody gets the idea she is promoting obesity - talk about clutching

 

[Stratton_Gun]

You may be right about the message it's "meant" to send but like Mika's "Big Girls" song, people will use it to justify their obesity and inflate their own idea of their self worth

 

[TheFreshBanana]

You may be right about the message it's "meant" to send but like Mika's "Big Girls" song, people will use it to justify their obesity and inflate their own idea of their self worth

Then how is that on the onus of those who make the song, and not on those who use something irrelevant to promote their own unhealthy lifestyle?

 

[Stratton_Gun]

It shouldn't be but it's obvious what will happen

Legit thought the last word was trouble

#hipster

Edit - appears I wasn't the only one

 

[Tulip]

Also, while we are on things like this. An article appeared in the Herald Sun yesterday, written by a woman, calling Jamie Oliver a dickhead because he punishes his child using chilli.

Could you imagine the uproar if a man could a woman a dumb bitch in an article?

Just read this now. The overriding theme of the article comes when Wendy delivers the news that hundreds of thousands of Aussie mums and dads have always wanted to hear.

All you have to do is talk to your kids - and the problems will go away.

 

[TheFreshBanana]

It shouldn't be but it's obvious what will happen

It still makes no sense to the point of being just as illogical as those who use irrelevant material to promote their obesity.

 

[TheFreshBanana]

I'm also of the opinion that people can do whatever the * they want to their body and if they want to live an unhealthy lifestyle then go ahead, although expect whatever negative thing that occurs from it.

And those who fat shame because they think they're doing them good, aren't, and are just dickheads.

 

[Tulip]

The stupid bitch who after paying for her petrol sat in her car at the bowser for 5 minutes talking on her phone.

Did she light up a cig?

Nah, it's a song predominantly about "booty". Not too many Miranda Kerrs in the video clip.

Not sure pink hair and inch thick make-up sells a message much of an anti-fakeness message either.

That's too logical for people.

Been trying to get rid of heaps of s**t from my fb news feed but this morning it wouldnt let me "hide all from news.com.au". campaigners

 

[dales.girl38]

Another lyric mistake I learned today. That new 'blank space' Taylor Swift song..the line 'Got a long list of ex-lovers', I had been hearing as 'gotta love those Starbucks lovers'
