The Fat Girls Guide to House Guests: Preparation

When inviting guests to stay in your home, Fat Girls need to prep. We're not the Martha Stewart everything-is-always-perfect-just-stop-over kinda people. We're watch-that-beer-bottle-I'd-move-it-but-I'm-too-lazy kinda people.

Because some people may have never stayed at a Fat Girl's home, let me give you an idea of what you're in for:

A good host would:

Do all their laundry before you arrived.

A Fat Girl will:

Make you fold the underwear while they drink a beer.

A good host would:

Ask you what kind of food you like, any special allergies, and would plan for your needs.

A Fat Girl will:

Come home from the grocery store with bread and 4 different kinds of beer. That's it.

A good host would:

Have an itinerary of fun activities for their guests to enjoy.

A Fat Girl will:

Make you run their errands while you're in town so they don't have to use the gas in their own car.

A good host would:

Ensure that their guests have everything they need to be comfortable during their stay.

A Fat Girl will:

Hide everything you need in a scavenger hunt. Be prepared to stick your hand down the garbage disposal if you really want toilet paper.


A good host would:

Be understanding if a guest had a problem that forced a change in the itinerary.

A Fat Girl will:

Yell at you for not telling her sooner that you have a problem and will make fun of you.


If you plan to stay at a Fat Girl's home any time soon, please be warned. It's a full-contact visit.
