These are patrons for Paula Deen’s restaurant in Savannah, Ga., "The Lady and Sons," as shown in a photo published in The New York Times.
These are Paula Deen kind of people; the kind of people who will tell you they are not fat, they have "curves."
Also, they are not racist; now they are "southern".
"Curves" is apparently the new euphemism for cholesterol-choked, butter-slathered, and sedentary.
Look at the curve of those legs as the knees buckle under too much weight.
Look at the curve going up on the national debt as fat sucks $200 billion a year out of the health care system and another $300 billion a year from productivity.
Step One is admitting this nation has a problem.
Labeling it curves is no help at alll.
And neither is calling racism "southern".

The best euphemism i heard during my stay in NYC was a woman who referred to herself as 'full size'.
