Dear Queenie,
I have a friend who is rather large, if you know what I mean. One day when we were shopping for clothes she tried on a shirt and it ripped and she had to pay for it. Later on she asked me if I thought she was too fat.
Well, Queenie, she is, but I didn’t want to hurt her feelings. What could I have said?—Fatty’s friend
Dear Friend,
You could have asked her what size was the shirt she ripped. Then when she told you, you could have told her she needed a couple of sizes bigger. Hopefully, she would have gotten the point without actually being told she is fat.
