Nothing makes a hot girl hotter than watching her eat a disgusting amount of food. Mmm… Seriously though, some people must be genetic freaks. I guess since some people can eat very little and still gain weight, there must be people on the other end of the spectrum too. How do you burn that kind of caloric intake off?

Oh, and I swear somebody else posted a link to this a couple of days ago and in that article it said she didn’t eat for two days. After she ate the whole thing, she said she was too excited to feel full. What? How the hell can you be so excited to not notice that you weight 10% more than when you came in?

I’m trying to figure out how she does this without rupturing her stomach…

As has been noted, she’s hot. I’m sure there are some Princeton frat boys who have soem ideas on how to assist her to that end.

Not to be completely crude, but do you think there’s any _room_?

Without wishing to be too crude (oh, who am I kidding), I _strongly_ advise against any activity that could trigger the gag reflex.

11 pounds of semi-digested cheeseburger could dampen things down a little
