If you click on her friends, they’re basically an anorexic community. They have tips on how to suppress your appetite, pictures of really REALLY thin people, and I basically I feel like I need to go order a large pizza right now, and eat it all myself. I’m in…. I don’t know, total shock? That sounds about right.
