and I agree wholeheartedly.

I'm the wrong size and the wrong shape to try to be stylish, so I don't
even try. In short, I'm large, ugly, and scary-lookin' (imagine a cross
between Hulk Hogan, Peter Ustinov, and Divine out of drag -- barrelish
but not terribly fat -- I could stand to lose about 30 lbs). I don't
live near kids because I tend to frighten them just by existing. When I
go to a party, I go in oversized sweats, an oversized tee-shirt, and
tennis shoes, no particular brand, which is what I wear all the time,
even to work. I didn't choose this body that I walk around in, but
thank god some guys like it otherwise I'd be miserable. Those of you
who think that clothes make the acid jazzer should probably party at
your boutiques, because what you're saying to me is that I should stay
away from YOUR party because I don't participate in that scene.

Naked people have quite an influence on society if they're in
advertisements or movies .... at least they do on me if they're cute.
