Fistaphobia by minge... August 25, 2008
A phrase created by attention seeking lazy people who think they deserve the same attention as marginalized and oppressed communities (such as racial minorities and the LGBTQ+), based solely off the fact they think being unhealthy should be normalized.
Aiden: "damn I'm getting chubby, gotta get back in shape"
Crystal: "oh my gawd what do you mean in shape, all shape is good shape, you are spreading fatphobia by implying fat people are not healthy"
Aiden: "shut up dude you are literally 300lbs"
Fatphobia by fatbrownguy May 10, 2022
A stupid non existend phobia created by fat people to cancel people who avoid being fat or think healthy bodies are more attractive than unhealthy bodies. Also created as an excuse for fat people to stay fat and talk bs about how they get "opressed" for being fat. You cannot compare " Fatphobia " to racism/homophobia/Islamphobia/sexism and such stuff.

Bodyshaming people is wrong, however a word such as "fatphobia" does not exist.
Example 1:
Gigachad: "I lost weight and I look so much better now!"

Karen:"WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?! SO YOU'RE SAYING THAT FAT PEOPLE DON'T LOOK GOOD?! THATS SO FATPHOBIC!! I WILL GET YOU CANCELLED ON TIKTOK!"

Gigachad: kys

Example 2:
*At ikea*
Ikea Worker: "Excuse me Ma'am, this chair is not designed for your body to fit in. Please get off"

Karen: "WHY WOULD YOU EVEN SELL SOMETHING LIKE THAT?! EVERYONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO FIT IN A CHAIR WITHOUT HAVING TO WORRY ABOUT THEIR BODY?! THIS COMPANY IS SO FATPHOBIC! I WILL REPORT YOU FOR NOT CARING ABOUT PLUS SIZED PEOPLE! ITS NOT LIKE ITS OUR FAULT IF WE CANT FIT IN IT!"

Ikea worker: "This chair is designed for the average body type."

example 3:
*Youtube post*
Video: "how to lose 20kg in only 3 months with only a healthy diet!"
Karen: WHAT?! WHY WOULD SOMEONE EVEN WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT! I HATE SKINNY BITCHES! THEY ARE SO PICK ME'S FOR WANTING TO LOSE WEIGHT! ALL BODIES ARE HEALTHY! FATPHOBIA !"

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
