I'm here in Silver Spring, Maryland with
reginagiraffe and
synecdochic, having dinner at a Chipotle. Syne popped into the ladies, only to find the handicapped stall occupied by a very thin woman, crouching over the toilet, vomiting with the stall door open.
Syne asked if she was okay -- if she needed help of any sort. "I'm fine," the woman said.
Well, that's debatable. And you shouldn't be occupying that stall, among other things.

Re: off-topic :P
Like all the people who go "being overweight is a risk factor for x! and y! and z!" and don't believe you when you tell them all the things that being underweight is a risk factor for (osteoporosis and heart problems and a whole bunch of stuff that I can't remember right now but which you can link back to insufficient nutrition if you really want to).
I spend more time than I am societally comfortable with (I'm comfortable doing it, but I am uncomfortable that the biases of society make it so I have to) reassuring women at dancing that they're gorgeous, and they don't have to try to get down to my weight because I'm trying to gain weight for my health.
