Better to have a joke about it. I wouldnt be too vexed if people called me fatty on account of my gut. It shows you have a level of knowing each other well enough to be compy in each other's company. You can easily tell if it is malicious or not. When i was laying bricks (badly!) in argentina the argentinians called me 'chancho' i think. That means piggy! I joined in and gave as good as i got. Like i said tho outright bullying is a different matter entirely! I'm the kind of bloke that takes it on the chin though
