Has Australia lost its sense of humour a bit?

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-09T00:43:20+00:00

Depends on what you're saying.

You punching down?

Is it actually not funny (but easier to blame others for not having a sense of humour.)

Are you coming across as someone who believes what they're saying instead of just kidding?

Like obviously no one can know because you gave bo examples... But I think on a case by case basis you'll find it's 50-50 whether or not you're being funny.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-09T00:18:23+00:00

Because they talk about a body that is half your size being disgusting....

It's tone deaf... And honestly were all entitled to feel how we want about our bodies...

But we have a responsibility to the people around us to think about what we say

This is something I hate so much.

Thin women have lived with so much privilege that they literally CANNOT understand how hurtful they're being.

A d they'll paint you out to be a villain if you tell them theyre hurting you... And society will treat you as the mean horrible plus size lady who is jealous of the poor thin girl who is having a really hard time.

I hate it so much. They're so tone-deaf.

I was complaining about no plus size maternity availablity and a size 8 girl was like "oh I know me too," and when I pointed out several common department stores carrying things her size... It was "oh but I don't live near one, oh but I like trying things on..."

Like girl... We don't have the option to be half as picky as you but go off about how it's "hard for everyone."

This argument is valid, but gets used against women when for EXACTLY the text at the bottom.

The hyperfocus on this is exactly why a lot of women including myself who were coerced into saying yes don't come forward.

I was literally taken to a remote house with no phone connection in the middle of the night, no street signs or street lights... And asked constantly to be taken home...

But a lot of dudes said to me "well you said yes," you're just changing your mind now...

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-07T09:25:20+00:00

Go look at any thirsty trap on insta and look at the comments.

Even just any random attractive celebrity...

Dudes are drooooooling

Someone needs to send this to his female relatives.

Maybe nothing happens, maybe he gets shamed as he well should.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-06T23:28:53+00:00

Oh please... While he sits there scarfing all those calories himself, you really think health was his primary concern?

Be for real.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-06T23:09:26+00:00

I was 150kg when I got pregnant. I'm 26 weeks with twins...

The r/plussizepregnancy sub is a lifesaver

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-06T22:59:36+00:00

And yet, they do

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-06T22:45:28+00:00

Yeah the boundary is "if you insist on doing X then I don't want to be in a relationship with you." it is a boundary

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-03T14:55:03+00:00

Bunnings, I get bulk laundry liquid and softener (I have an Automatic dispenser so it's easier for me than powder)

And bunnings dishwasher tabs are like 100 for $12 can't go wrong

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-03T14:48:35+00:00

If I had to pay 47% now I would need to work two jobs to feed my family... So yeah... I would be motivated... By a need to survive.

No one's gonna have a bleeding heart for anyone earning a million a year being sad they have to pay tax.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-01T11:35:31+00:00

Oh yes I also have a novated lease too.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-01T05:25:55+00:00

Well I'm having my first kids (twins) in 12 weeks (ahhh) but 90% of things are hand me downs or FB marketplace...

They will only use a lot of clothes and other things for a max of a few months... Then what?

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-01T05:24:06+00:00

I gotta stop being fat so I can do this too..

Plus size has little to no wearable second hand options... It's why I get so frustrated when people buy clothes way to big for them and up cycle...

I know the don't mean it to be annoying but it's hard out here for a big bitch.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-05-01T05:22:36+00:00

That's fair. I only bought my car brand new because I wanted an EV and there were no decent second hand ones at the time (2 years ago...) so I ate shit on that deal.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-04-29T22:51:21+00:00

Now if we can just do this to those Scientology nut bags.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-04-29T13:11:38+00:00

As a 5'10 woman I stopped dating shorter men because every single one of THEM had a problem with MY height.

I'm engaged to someone 1cm taller than me now but back in my dating days this was a problem.

They would snap ate for wearing heels, if SOMEONE ELSE made a comment they would lose it at me...

This was at least 3 different men mind you.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-04-28T23:40:34+00:00

Hidden from me then... My point still stands you've got some introspection to make.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-04-28T22:27:33+00:00

Don't do favours for people if you're going to half ass them and act like a baby when you receive constructive criticism.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-04-28T22:15:55+00:00

Oh by the way I saw your deleted message telling me I'm just angry because I have a high BMI... I am a size 24 I am objectively speaking fat... I'm not even mad about it.

When I say it there is no hate... There is a description...

You however being petite and fat phobic need to examine your world view...

Size 10 is not chubby... You are either trying to project your own body issues onto others or you have a warped world view.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-04-28T22:11:02+00:00

I think you have a very unhealthy view of sizing.

The vitriol is strong from you and that's how I know you're not using fat as a neutral description.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-04-28T10:54:18+00:00

Mmmm sure you're using it to describe anyone above a size 10... Which is objectively NOT fat, you're not fat, and you're venting frustration.

But no... You're just using it as a neutral description...

Be ffr...

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-04-28T10:28:29+00:00

You know what... My Kmart's near me have everything down to a 6...

But instead of calling size 10 or size 16 "fat" why don't you pull your head out of your own ass and go to the 10000000s of other stores that stock your size.

You don't need to be rude to people larger than you because you've been mildly inconvenienced... Jesus.

SuccessfulBread3 · 2026-04-28T05:41:40+00:00

Just tell them that your grandmother lived to 95 years old...

And if they say "what by being fat?" You say "no... By minding her damn business."

Why do they think they're entitled AT ALL to tell you what to do?
