I met up with an old roommate JK (Kooper) recently, whom I hadn't seen in over two years. Since the last time I saw him, I heard that he lost a considerable amount of weight.I started to wonder how long it would take me to recognise him; I mean, how different could he possibly look? It's weight loss after all, not a boob job. But still, losing mass everywhere on your body can really change someone's body shape, especially after not having seen the guy for a while. Maybe I should be looking for a guy I don't recognise anymore??
Well, we finally met up, and he looked pretty different. I could have easily passed him in the street if I didn't know it was him. The fact that he was wearing sunglasses really threw me off too. As soon as he took them off (as per my explicit request) and started talking, then I finally accepted that it was him, and not some skinny impersonator with a bad boob job.
So maybe weight loss should be used as the latest spy tactic. Super model thin spies could be deployed anywhere and eveywhere, slithering around à la Catherine Zeta-Jones in Entrapment, literally slipping through cracks in the pavement. Bond would be forced to eat a Big Mac at gun point, only to escape by squirting the 3000-calorie secret sauce in his captor's eyes and using his Coke to melt the titanium handcuffs.By the way - any votes for Ronald McDonald as the sickest Bond villain ever?
