1) People get to call you cool nicknames like

RICK ROSS!!!!!

2) Your size makes you physically intimidating.

If you’re not tall, this won’t work for you. Sorry

3) People will love you because you’re like a giant teddy bear.

It’s a proven fact that fat people give the best hugs.

4) You get to take up all the space you want in public transport.

Other people don’t matter. If they complain, tell them to buy their own car.

5) You will never get cold.

Other people will wish they had the extra layers you have.

6) If you’re ever on a boat or ship that sinks, you’ll float.

While all the skinny people drown around you.

7) Fat people are harder to kidnap.

In other words, eat all the cake you can.

8) Other fat people will always have your back.

UNITED WE STAND!!!

9) You will always get to ride in the front seat of the car.

Because sharing the backseat with 2 or (in extreme cases) 3 other people won’t be an option.

10) Date a fat person and you will never need pillows again.

Fat people make the best pillows.
