I only go there about twice a year to see my Mom, and I already know it's pointless to discuss politics, so try not to get into it too much and it never gets heated, I just kinda laugh and shake my head... they are very very nice people... just stay away from religion or politics

Speaking of idiots, I was reading a serious magazine today that for some reason had this tidbit in it. I looked up the story on the internet and was ASTOUNDED that stuff like this actually exists, and that people actually spend money on 'toe liposuction' to wear uncomfortable shoes. Nobody cares about the Intel science fair winners, but people like this continually make the news. Depressing..... Kim Kardashian Toe Liposuction: Mrs. West Got 'Loub Job' Ahead Of Wedding, Says New Report Kim Kardashian certainly is no stranger to plastic surgery rumors, but the latest ones may take the cake. The 33-year-old reality star reportedly had cosmetic surgery on her toes ahead of her big wedding day on Saturday. According to Look magazine, Kardashian reportedly spent around $6,000 on a “Loub job,” in order to easily wear her high heeled shoes. The term was named after designer Christian Louboutin for a cosmetic procedure which allows an increased level of comfort when wearing high heels. According to the Daily Mail, the treatments involve injecting collagen into the feet to create a pillowy effect, providing built-in cushion to soften the strain of wearing high heels. Results of the treatment can last up to 6 months. “Cosmetic surgeons and podiatrists can use tiny instruments to remove a small amount of fat - typically from the big toes,” cosmetic surgeon Wendy Lewis, who has not treated Kim, told the magazine. Kim is not the only family member rumored to have gotten a rather unique cosmetic procedure done recently. Half-sister Kylie Jenner is rumored to have gotten lip injections. In recent pictures the youngest Kardashian sister has uploaded onto Instagram, it does seem like her lips are fuller than usual, though it could just be a great lip plumper product.
