I Like 'Em Chunky

When I first saw this title, I thought it was referring to either peanut butter or cookies. (or better yet, peanut butter cookies).

It doesn't.

It's a song from Madagascar 2 in which the male hippo asserts his preference for "chunky" females. I am concerned about the message that this sends to the females of other species. What are female giraffes supposed to think? No matter how much they try, they won't be able to gain enough weight to compete with a female hippo.

Hippos are naturally big. Giraffes aren't. They can't find fried mozzarella sticks on the savanna in Africa. Zookeepers don'tcooperate. They blatantly ignore the pressure on giraffes to become obese by their insistence on serving them leaves.







Look at this poor giraffe begging zookeepers for a Big Mac and fries. I feel her pain! Not a day goes by that I don't wish for the same meal.








This hippo just turns his back on the giraffe. He won't even talk to her. He's an ass!

Hippos are renowned for thinking themselves a cut above giraffes.

Briana, check out Chairman Bill's blog. You're going to LOVE it.

We have a man with a brain situation. He is not politically brain dead.

Hippos have every right to prefer their women chunky.

Don't hate the hippo playa, hate the game. hee hee

I really want to eat a big mac right now and then, date a hippo who will love and honor, my fat.

I loved that movie. The Hippo, his motto is hilarious although I have no recall of course. I really laughed at a lot of these characters.
