Manifesto

FAT!SO? proclaims 12:01am, January 1, 1996 to be The First International Fat-Outing Minute. During this minute, round folk are called upon to stand before their mirrors and proclaim, "I am fat!" The zealous will then gaze deeply into the eyes of their round loved ones and say, "You are fat, too!" Then, fatsos everywhere will applaud and blow noisemakers for a second time in as many minutes. Instead of starting the New Year with year another resolution to lose weight on some harmful, ineffectual diet, we'll begin the last half-decade of the 20th Century with an honest moment and some relief from anxiety.
