Still, She Makes a Ton of Money From Selling Her Side Fat on the Open Market

Guy: So, on the show this girl got two gobs of fat taken out of her sides. So, then they showed a “before” and “after” picture and it was like, “before,” lots of fat. “After,” still some fat, and stretch marks and a nasty scar. So then they went out to eat and she's eating pasta from her plate, pasta from her mom's plate, and then she gets this big hoagie. And I'm thinking, “this bitch is going to be fat again in two months.”
