Default fat waitstaff gets restaurant patrons to order more

Order more food and alcohol, attributed to waitstaff
setting a "social norm".

If this research holds up, we can see where it's leading.

When I was a boy, a friend's stunning older sister applied to
be a Playboy Bunny.

Her thighs taped out an inch over the max acceptable, so that
was it for her dreams.

I managed to get inside a Playboy club before their demise. The
Bunnies, although trim, were not especially pretty, Guys would
stare at my friend's sister, as if trying to record her image on
their retinas.

As you know, I'm partial to women of the weasel variety.

I'm sure spamtrap said it tongue in cheek (it was a joke) but
something like that seemed fun to some young women... it was an
adventure - like being a stewardess and flying all over the world.
