In female-speak, asking a woman if she's pregnant is just you saying she's fat. There really isn't any positive involved for her. And that's not even considering that you're actually trying to call her a slutty, slutty ho-bag in your own fun way.

Also, I haven't lost any weight. While my waist has shrunk some, I've weighed almost the exact same (give or take 2-3 lbs) since at least last June. So stop asking.
Bah, at least I have a full head of hair.

Oh for Pete's sake.
