People Get Jealous

Post by Over43 » Sun Dec 12, 2010 9:29 pm

I was at work last week when a fairly obese co-worker, began taunting me about being slimmer and having more muscle. I assume he was jealous. It was all made better when our attractive secretary let me know I looked good. I know she didn't tell him that. :lol:

I guess this doesn't work unless you actually do it.

Out of curiosity, how does one taunt someone for being slimmer and having more muscle?

Don't ask me, but he does it. Would you like me to secretly film it and post on You Tube? :lol:

Congratulations!

And it's great "conceptual art" even if it never makes it you youtube. :-)

Reminds me of the scene in the Life of Brian when the Judean People's Liberation Front (or whatever) are railing on the Roman's for oppressing them with roads, running water, sanitation, etc.

Some people are just strange. lol Good for you, though, that you're losing weight and becoming healthier. :)

I heard an Air Force saying that seems appropriate here: "If you are not taking flack, you must not be over the target."

So to put a positive spin on this: as long as he is taunting you, you must be doing something right. :)

I think it's a case of "jealousy makes you nasty".
Smile sweetly & move on - you're doing great.
