Fat people aren’t just ruining health care reform, they’re also ruining dating websites:

“Dating and social network site BeautifulPeople.com has axed some 5,000 members following complaints that they had gained weight…

As a business, we mourn the loss of any member, but the fact remains that our members demand the high standard of beauty be upheld,” said site founder Robert Hintze.

Letting fatties roam the site is a direct threat to our business model and the very concept for which BeautifulPeople.com was founded.”
