I would just like to say that this post is not about making fun of fat people, it is about making fun of a gal who happens to be fat, and what she was doing in the cramped quarters of the crowded D train this morning.

She had her (lumpy and jiggly) body wrapped around the pole, making it nearly impossible for anyone else to hold it in a comfortable position, while playing a Nintendo DS game.  Particularly the game “Cooking Mama“!

At first glance, and even after watching her play the game for a good 20 minutes, the game gave all appearances as being a game that a four or five year old should be playing when they want to help their parents cook.  This game made the original NES Super Mario Brothers look like brain surgery.

Basically the game allows the player to “create” meals from scratch. 

I watched as the fat girl feverishly spun the Nintendo DS pen in circles as she dipped the pork chops in breadcrumbs, cracked eggs, and even sliced her cooked pork chops - all in timed events!

Every now and then I took a peek at this womans face to see if she was as bored playing the game as I was in watching her play the game, but no.  Nope, she was completely entralled by the game, and I happened to notice that as each of her meals got closer and closer to being fully prepared and cooked she would subconsciously lick her lips out of what I can only assume to be desired wants of eating the video game meal.

It was  great morning commute.
