When a California woman recently gave birth to a healthy baby just two days after learning she was pregnant, the sudden change to her life was challenging enough. What April Branum definitely didn't need was a deluge of nasty Internet comments.

Postings on message boards made cracks about Branum's weight (about 400 pounds — one reason she says didn't realize sooner she was pregnant). They also analyzed her housekeeping ability, based on a photo of her home. And they called her names. "A pig is a pig," one person wrote. Another suggested that she "go on the show 'The Biggest Loser.'"

:jet:

I'd love to know why this woman felt compelled to tell a message board that she weighs 400 lbs and that's why she didn't know she was pregnant, and post pics of her filthy home.

Does she post on Baynet?

I think I'll just get really, really fat and pregnant in that order. Well, DR may not go for that, but I really want my 10 minutes of fame. He'll just have to deal with it.

Pete, how will that affect my motorcycle riding?

Wasn't there a thread about her here? :roflmao:
Yup.


What did she expect? She is obese and she does have a dirty home. How can she be surprised that most people would not want a piece of that?

Because a vast majority of our population have become masters of denial and PCness.
