Why were there no poems about the Charge of the Heavy Brigade?

[taterguy]

Is it yet another example of society's prejudice against overweight people?

Or is it something else?

[KG]

1. actually, the heavy brigade was sposed to be part of the charge

but they stopped for a mid-morning snack and missed out on all the fun. :)

4. You snooze you lose

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

2. Too much flatulence.

It wasn't poetic.

[taterguy]

3. As if skinny people don't fart

More prejudice, right here on an allegedly progressive site.

5. I'll simply escape by going through the kitchen door.

Ha ha!

[taterguy]

6. So you don't even want to be around people that don't meet your body type standards?

Pathetic
:sarcasm:

(I know, it's wrong. But so, so funny...)

8. Myspace is owned by the Murdoch clown

So yes it would be wrong to encourage progressives to click on that link.
What did I miss?

9. A clip from a cartoon show on the Murdoch network....

Which nonetheless I find very, very funny.

Youtube removed all its Family Guy clips, so I had to go with Myspace.

10. Well that was mildly amusing

And now some hot woman named Tiffany wants to be my Friend.

Is there anything the Internet can't do?

[Orsino]

11. Because they're not done yet.

They've had to stop a few times to catch their breath.

[taterguy]

12. The Light Brigade charged over 100 years ago

Something tells me the Heavy Brigade ain't breathing anymore.

But I could be wrong.

13. Sorry to rain on your parade - but there is

14. Curses, foiled again

It's a good thing that I never minded standing in the rain
