* HollywoodPudgy: Invoked; the "Wedding Shows" episode features an example from a [=WeTV=] show called ''Bulging Brides'' where a woman who is already gorgeous and HollywoodThin is described as "looking like a chubster in that wedding dress". She is shown a photo-manipulated "[[BadFuture future vision]]" projecting her future weight, complete with dramatic music and nearly making her cry-- and, as Sarah points out:
-->'''Sarah:''' ''Wait.'' That's what ''I'' look like ''now''. ''[stares at the image and munches potato chips]'' Thanks, We. Without your wedding shows, I would still look like this and be single, which I am.
