      The sort of comeback so good you think of it later on and write a comic, wishing you’d said it at the time

        I highly doubt the situation happened. Their insecurity manifested it and it was output into something that made them feel excused. In reality, no one outside of their own mind has thought or said this to them. At least not since junior school.

        Just a bunch…

      Even if I were to agree with this rather obvious trolling attempt.

      …yes?

      “Type” is a word used to categorize things by shared characteristics, in this context, characteristics shared by the human body?

              you: “is this type of body a body type?”

              me: “yes, a type is a type”

              you: “no, I meant something really specific” (provides a list of lists)

              me: (looking at the list of lists): “this is pure nonsense”

                I’m aware that any of the past attempts to classify body types are extremely pseudo-scientific and I’ve explained as much in a different comment in this thread. The point is that “body type” isn’t just necessarily just a generic way to refer to someone’s body shape. Plenty of people still believe in that made up nonsense.

    Can any ladies comment, are girls ever actually this bitchy to each other? This has to be a bit of hyperbole right?

      From what I hear it’s usually more about back-handed compliments than outright insults, like “wow, you must have a lot of confidence in yourself to wear that, go you!”
