You offend more than just Brad when you point out somebodies weight as something to be ridiculed. I'm willing to bet that you're aware of this too. It's hardly ultra-PC to ask people on a list such as this, that espouses a tolerant mind set, to refrain from making comments that suggest some negative connection between body type and "worthiness".
