If any of you remember the show Doug on Nickelodeon, you might remember this episode. I had a Cartman memory during this one. It is the one where Doug goes on a diet because it seems he is a bit fat and he wants to lose the weight because of a poolparty.
He asks Connie what she is and she says: "I'm not fat, I'm big boned"
Not sure if any of you remember the show Doug, but that sure brought back a memory of Cartman!

Viva la Cartman!

I knew SOMEONE used to watch it. I also watched it when I was 11, but the episode just rang a cheesypoof bell. I doubt Trey & Matt got their idea for the quote from that episode of Doug.

The "I'm not fat, I'm just bigboned" was used in a comedy tv series in the UK: Alas Smith & Jones. This was back in the 80s, I do beleive, with Mel Smith delivering that line. (UK readers will see why!)
guess what, that line "i'm not fat, i'm big-boned" is probably older than most of the people on this NG...
not meaning to step on toes, but it's the truth! :)

I _highly_ doubt it. It is a common statement among fat folks. I have a buddy who used to say that _all_ the time!

He's right....it's common for overweight people to say. -me
