is Nelson supposed to be "husky" in The Simpsons universe or is that just the way they draw all the characters

Both.

Nelson has a body type similar to Bart with more fatmuscle. And at least one episode is about how Springfield is the fattest city in America.

Remember when it was a joke that Homer weighed 230lbs and was considered lazy and fat instead of just a normal guy?

I literally weigh 230 lbs right now and I look nowhere near as fat as Homer.

Of course, that could be because my weight is all muscle :smug:

I like the episode where the fat kid mixes up a career test and thinks he's a genius, only to find out the magic was in the heart of the cards all along the way or whatever, only for the show to rubberband immediately and have him regress to being a dope for the other kids to look cool against.

I like the episode where he steals a ham, despite being Jewish.

re: bullies.

I like that rodger klotz went from bully who is clearly older than everyone else to just poor to like his whole deal being "trash poor people that have money they don't deserve"

I remember when he discovers that he could get on disability if he got even fatter, then spends half the episode working his way up to 300lbs - never mind that eating what we typically see Homer eat would push most people well past that point.

Some experts have actually placed some of the blame for the obesity epidemic on stuff like that - fatasses on TV are portrayed as eating every meal as though they're training for an eating contest, yet you can easily end up obese by eating slightly more calories than you burn over a period of years.

I never really like Arthur. I watched it if it came on and something else wasn't better.

But as a kid, Winnie the Pooh was where it was at. Watched the gently caress outta that show.

Lol wait was he Jewish? The fat bully kid from hey arnold was Jewish too.

Is this some sort of zionist media conspiracy to use cartoons to make kids think Jewish kids are tough and not to gently caress with them?

I odn't think Binky was supposed to be Jewish. The post in question waso nly refering to Harold from Hey Arnold who was very jewish.

That was the first cd rom I ever used. The only thing I remember about it was that it featured the rat teacher very prominently and I didn't care for him much.
