The Heavyset Man

Harold shook his head in disbelief at the heavyset man occupying two seats on the bus.

"Can you believe that guy?" Harold whispered to his wife Josephine. "How can someone get into that kind of shape? I'm going to say something. I have to say something."

Josephine said, "Don't make a scene, Harold."

"Look at him. Even his eyebrows are fat. His eyebrows!" Harold then called to the man, "Hey, buddy. It's called Weight Watchers!"

The man heaved himself out of his seat and lumbered over to Harold.

"Now you've done it," said Josephine.

The man sat on Harold and Josephine.
