I still think the Kardashian-Trumper-female look might be a variation of Body Dysmorphic Disorder, an obsession with one's perceived physical flaws. (And, yes, that's listed in the "Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders," aka DSM-5, under obsessive-compulsive disorders.) I mean, that's a lot of money and time and pain/discomfort to spend on looking grotesque.

Special to TBR: “The bride was radiant in the chaise lounge from her mother’s sun room. She is a determined kind of gal and insisted on a 17-inch waist, just like Scarlett O’Hara. She spent weeks having a “training corset” push her spleen into her liver. New best friend Kim Kardashian sent the bride one of her old ones via a plain, unmarked brown envelope.” Photo: https://www.threads.com/@mkent729/post/DLYuHdhJwK8?xmt=AQF09L_i6VfoATQbGHAQpK87gPdm4XJaUmzDvtQQyMI8FA

Insecurity and extremely poor taste drive women who think they can stop the aging process. meanwhile, their husbands/boyfriends don’t care as long as the sex is great.

I remember having to run laps in junior high and high school -- OMG!!! Having big boobs was frickin' painful. Especially since at 15 I was like Sophia Loren but kept going, ending up like Anna Nicole Smith. Boob-wise, that is... Painful, I tell you! I was athletic and they just got in the way, dang it all. Where I worked 30 years ago, there was this lovely young Asian woman of small stature and wispy slim build who got a boob job to the nth degree -- size triple G cup, looked like, or maybe Z -- and it was very sadly grotesque.

Actually, I did get implants 18 years ago, because they made me feel complete, like what I should have had. They were not outsize, but I ended up getting really tired of them, and gladly had them removed last month after they ruptured. I would recommend getting the reduction if you really want it. I don't think the recovery would be that bad, based on my recent experience (and I'm an old woman).

OK. Story time. I dressed up for the Halloween concert. Bought a 38 D bra at Ross, went to a friend who sewed and got some professional stuffing, put on a tight bright pink top, borrowed a blond wig from another friend, and went to work. Yes, work. Someone who had known me for 20 years didn't recognize me in the parking lot. The men had one of two reactions: either blushed when they talked to me, or kept glancing at my "boobs" and then down as if saying, "I'm not looking. Nope. Not looking."

When I got home I noticed that some stuffing was peeking out of my top. My conclusion: It doesn't matter how you get the big boobs. So why not use removable, comfy soft stuffing? It's all a big, fluffy act anyway.

He’s lucky the tent wasn’t stolen by the delivery driver, and that he didn’t have to deal with endless emails telling him to return it for credit. Ditto for the plastic bride.

That last sentence, Andy! We here in Italy (and elsewhere, I’m sure) are reveling in this “disastrous” event. We’re also relieved to know that if one of the many private water taxis they’ve commandeered sinks, and she’s in it, those bulbous knockers will surely keep her afloat. And it will give her new husband something to cling to.

In the pre-nup Bezos insisted that his bride must ALWAYS display her cleavage in public. Being the brilliant woman that she is, she has readily complied.

What if a bird built a nest on her boobs? I’m thinking that the environmentalists would demand she allow it….bad for Jeff….
