Negative

Nothena:  Hi, Tiny.  I almost didn’t see you standing there.

Tiny:  Hey girl, I am just waiting on the sale clerk to come back.  I am trying to buy one of those scarves that double as a shirt. 

Nothena:  Oh, I heard all about them.  They are the rave. 

Clerk:  Ma’am, I brought back enough sizes for you to try.  What’s your size again?

Tiny:  Negative 3.

Clerk:  Ah, try this one first.

Nothena:  Girl, I don’t know how you do it.  What’s your secret?

Tiny: Well, I stop eating about three years ago.  I only drink those Right Size Smoothies, I have a membership with liposuction-on-demand and I spend a lot of time hovering over my toilet…if you know what I mean. 

Nothena:  I guess I can’t be too envious because you are putting in the work to make it happen. 

Tiny:  You can say that again.

[A third lady approaches the sale clerk with a question]

Cheryl:  Hi, I am looking for the new D&G halter tops.

Clerk:  [After looking her up and down, she asks] What’s your size?

Cheryl: Zero

Clerk:  You are definitely in the wrong store.  We haven’t carried that size in a long long time.  Have you tried Lane Bryant?

Cheryl:  No, but I guess that’s my next stop. [Cheryl heads towards the exit.]

Clerk:  [The clerk mumbles under her breath] “That should have been your first stop.”

Nothena and Tiny over heard the clerk’s comment and the three ladies broke into a roar of laughter.  As Cheryl left the store, she could hear the laughter and she was sure that she was the butt of the joke.

Cheryl:  “Skinny bitches!”
