28
$7.42.
29

30

31
Look, I need you to come.
32
Are you there?
33
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, how dare you?
34
Are you serious?
35
Who's the manager at his store?
36
You know what?
37
Never mind.
38
You're so worried about what goes into her mouth that you can't see the crap that's coming out of yours.
39
Listen, I don't care if you're fit or you do keto.
40
You asked her for peanuts like she's an elephant, but the real elephant in this room is your ego Have you ever gotten bullied?
41
Do you know what that feels like?
42
This ain't high school anymore?
43
Karen, this is real life
44
and people like you live life like a seesaw in order for you to feel high You have to put others down,
45
but I'm gonna give you a life lesson now Eventually, you'll be the one falling to the ground Seriously?
46
You're just pro-fat acceptance.
47
No, fat acceptance is accepting that you're going to an early grave, and there's nothing you can do to be saved.
48
Couldn't you see she's working to change?
49
I mean her food selection was obvious proof.
50
Or do you shame sick people in hospitals too?
51
Plus, none of that even matters.
52
You never know what somebody's going through.
53
Everybody is fighting silent battles, some living in invisible prisons.
54
And in case you didn't know, here's some nutritional wisdom.
55
Food is not just something you eat, it is also a coping mechanism.
56
And the more you shame, the more you lower someone's self-esteem, creating guilt and low confidence, which leads to stress eating and weight gain,
57
which means you're causing what you claim you want to prevent.
58
Stop glorifying obesity.
59
I'm not glorifying obesity.
60
I'm glorifying treating people as human beings with decency.
61
So many studies show that fear and shame do not motivate change.
62
They just make people more depressed and miserable because mental health is twice as important as physical.
63
I know people with perfect bodies, better than yours, and much better than mine, yet felt ugly inside.
64
People like Marilyn Monroe, the most beautiful actress of all time, committed suicide.
65
So don't victimize the victim with the words that you say.
66
Plus, I mean, how can you not have some kind of eating disorder living in this world today?
67
Let me tell you something serious.
68
Many magazine cover models work out and diet so hard.
69
that they no longer have their period.
70
Yeah, it's real like that.
71
And then after all of that training for one day of shooting, they're photoshopped.
72
So they don't even look like that.
73
Our beauty standards are so unrealistic.
74
They are crimes against us to trick us into spending more money to reach an image that never even existed.
75
We are all victims and...
76
I didn't even mention the food system.
77
Did you know companies like Doritos spend millions of dollars putting people in MRI machines
78
so they can tweak their formula to addictists?
79
Our whole world is a vicious cycle of self-hating trap.
80
And it starts early.
81
Wanna hear a crazy stat?
82
One study showed that 80% of 10 year olds greatest fear is being fat.
83
Now look, I'm not gonna shame you for shaming her.
84
That's lame.
85
I forgive you.
86
Because I know you too can change.
87
This world needs more understanding, less blame, more support, less shame.
88
Life is so hard already.
89
So instead of putting people down, telling them what they should look like or who they should be,
90
Let's accept them for who they are and lovingly encourage them to be who they could be.
91
Patty!
92
Excuse me?
93
Patty, um...
94
I just...
95
I have bloody trouble.
96
Look, um, growing up my mom always told me
97
that I wasn't good enough and I was never thin enough and I don't know, sometimes I just feel better about myself when I judge other people
98
and everything back there was just a projection of my own insecurities.
99
I didn't mean anything that I said.
100
I'm really, really sorry.
101
Mr. Sharp, hi.
102
What are you doing here?
103
What is it, Karen?
104
I can't come and check on my own coffee shop?
105
No, you're the boss.
106
I see you've met my daughter, Pat. Are you crying, sweetie?
107
No, Karen told a really funny joke.
108
Ready to go, sweetie?
109
Come on, baby.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
