Large and in charge female rapper (or wrapper, as in candy wrappers and lots of them) is suing Lyft because one of their drivers refused to take her on as a fare because she weighs almost 500 lbs and he had safety concerns about his vehicle. She claims “she stands for her commmunity and if she doesn’t stand up now, she will fall for anything.” Dear god, please don’t fall. Last thing we need is an earthquake. And she needs a forklift. She is suing and her attorney claims that weight discrimination is a protected class in Detroit same as race or religion. However, I checked and it is illegal to not hire someone because of their weight in Michigan, but it says nothing about denial of service, so I guess we will see how this pans (as in cooking pans) out. And how can she sue the company when this was the action of one driver that is an independent contractor?



Also, might as well discuss very obese or large people that are being forced to pay for two plane seats when they can’t fit in a single seat.

Why is that fatty's backside on its frontside?

As per the case...morbidly obese people deserve to be discriminated against; and viseral hate towards them should be encouraged

In High School we used to call that front butt.

Reality is offensive!!!!!

Physics are oppressive!!!!!

Reeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

...can we just start making shaming these things socially acceptable again?

 

[Only Here for Attachments]

Are there that many fatasses in Michigan to where weight is a protected class?

The judge should throw that case out of court faster than her toilet grows legs and runs out of her house when she approaches it.

489lbs? My sister in Christ, you have much bigger things to worry about than a Lyft.

The driver is not wrong, depending on the car, she might exceed the weight limit the car is designed for.
Personally I would've shoe-horned her ass in there, just to see how she gets out.

Twatter link needs a NSFL tag...dint click

Those lawyers look suspiciously granny though

 

[Misfit23]

That's embarrassing for her.

I would have thought American taxis came with reinforced flooring as standard.

I wouldn’t say hate, but at least mild contempt

This is a Lyft, so someone’s personal vehicle being used as a taxi. If he had let her in the vehicle, her feet would go through the floor and it would look like Fred flinstone

Embarrassing for every American

I don’t know anything about bout Lyft drivers and their rights to refuse. Can you refuse someone that smells awful that will stink up your vehicle, can you refuse someone that has stains-like blood or mud? Can you refuse a really drunk person?

He refunded her and gave her a tip. The tip was “skip dessert”

I think that’s the problem. She is bigger than the sedan

Kind of the point of the thread. I bet she’s fucking her lawyer

- I remember a 90's comedy movie. That a guy married a hot blondie, but she got so fat, they needed a forklift to remover her from the room.
I think the forklift broke.
