Large rear end !

There was an article in one of the Sunday papers recently [might have been The Observer] that likened the Kardashians to The Mitford Girls .

I agree, take the "f" word etc. out and he would still be funny.

I used to like Bill but got a bit tired of his foul-mouthed ranting. He didn't need to do it. A talented but flawed individual.

For Billy Connolly, quite mild.

In this case "bike" ? could be a motor bike.

Rude!

'ang on. I'll just get me gun.

This has just reminded me of an old Billy Connolly joke. :-

This guy meets his friend in the pub and he asked his mate how he was. He was like 'fine, fine, but I've just killed my wife. I'll show you if you want.' So they go into the back green and beside the washhouse is a big mound of earth, with a bum sticking out of it. He said; 'Is that her? What did you leave her bum sticking out for?' And he replied; "I need somewhere to park my bike"

Too heavy! Too much to lug around.

I think she looks very attractive !

Wouldn"t mind a figure like that !

Pompa and PapaO the photo I saw of KK was much more outlandish, it was with her bending over and it looked as if he bottom represented a small table - it was revolting. I wondered if the photo had been doctored.

How sad that young people feel the need to alter their bodies so drastically.

That is true - people should look to the future a bit when they do these things, but the young believe they are immortal. There are going to be hundreds of thousands of overstretched illegible tattoos appearing shortly, as the craze started to catch on maybe 15 years ago.

Poor girl suffers from steatopygia - she should be pitied.

Seriously, her bum is not nearly as big as some of those I see walking around or clambering onto buses, but they are equally "broadshouldered all the way down" or bulging like barrage balloons draped in pale pink dust sheets. She is reasonably in proportion, if distinctly bottom-heavy. Her problems will start when she hits middle-aged spread and it all starts to sag and wobble.

Just to cool you down a bit, Pompa, I will mention the shock I experienced some summers ago when entering a small French beachside supermarket to be confronted by a bevy of cheerful and very amply proportioned German ladies going about their business topless. All I wanted was a nice melon but I had to leave the premises rapidly at risk of being crushed and trampled. I still tremble at the memory!

What does she "do" apart from appearing ?

Well I could say what she does for me - but I might get reported

She has also been a chance for a light hearted thread that has probably cheered many of us up, even if we were dismissive of her.

I feel my spirits lifted by this thread. No bad thing.

'Fraid so Petallus especially one THAT BIG ! Maybe "disgusted"
is a bit too strong.... Safe to say they don't do anything for me (on a man that is) hate builders bum (cracks) too yuk !

Agree with Riverwalk the "message" is exactly the same. Get your boobs or bum out and wey hey success. What is KK for? What does she "do" apart from appearing ? No prizes for guessing the name of their next child.....

It's a tough job, but someone ha to do it.

Oh, meant to say selfless not selfish.

My unconscious must have sneaked in when I wasn't looking!

papa and pompa, thank you for your selfish dedication to researching this issue!

any and

Dead right Papascar, we have to keep an open mind any continue our observations.

As one who had been fighting on and off most of my adult life against the slow increase in inches and kilos, I have to say that the idea of actually paying somebody to add to those two personal statistics is a mystery to me. I have seen pictures of m/s KK displaying her ample and remarkable assets. Do I find them attractive? Well, they certainly hit you between the eyes, so to speak. I am all for curves as opposed to straight lines, but I do think that things are best kept in proportion. I theorize that if one bit of you (or perhaps even three) is out of scale it tends to spoil the rest, but I am quite prepared to continue my observations with the aim of proving that theory!

It's saying you can be attractive and famous without being skeletally thin (KK has saddlebags I notice).

Whether or not women should be judged so much on their bodies is a different issue.

It's not really a different message though, is it petallus.

It's still all about young women making it to the front pages and fame and fortune by virtue of having enormous (false) breasts and bums - KK doesn't sing or dance, she just appears!

Is her daughter really called North West?! [confused

They are all slightly odd, those people.
