photoshop liposuction

Girish let me in on a top secret side-job he has been doing these days – photoshop liposuction – where friends send their photographs to him and he gives them “better” features by reducing the rotundity of their faces and giving them a chiselled chin. The usual effects of “making fair” and “giving lighter eyes” are also applied.

The photographs are used in matrimonial adverts and proposals. When asked if he feels bad about the disappointment his products create in prospective brides who feel cheated when they see that the square jawed hunk is infact cherubic, obese and, well, a sack of lard, he says, “A resume doesn’t promise you a job, merely a foot in the door.”

There you have it – the originator of the term photoshop liposuction!
