An artist has made meatballs using his liposuctioned fat and fed them to some of his friends. He's also selling cans of his human meatballs. Is this art or is this an attention whore's latest jackass-like gross out stunt?

I don't see the artistic value in that, but that doesn't mean it's not there. It just means I don't buy it. Some people don't see the artistic value in Pollock, though, so who's to make the definitive call on this?

I think I just threw up in my mouth.

Come to think of it, though, he'd probably find a way to make meatballs outta my puke, too...

The only people offended by Pollock are those who wish they had made big money off of throwing paint --- first.

I for one applaud his ingenuity. I've often wished for an idea to use unwanted parts/ byproducts of my own body to make money.

Art? No.
Recycling? Yes.
Tastey? Maybe.

I mean it's not like anything else is going to be done with the fat... 'cept maybe make soap...

I would've liked to see the look on his friends' faces when he told them.
I would've taken a photo personally.

I do wonder if they knew the menu in advance or if they found out when they were alrady sat down. "Hey guys, I have a treat for you tonight! Meatballs made from my own fat." Then you're forced to be rude to a famous (?) artist by running screaming form the dinner table or risk your sanity and health.

I think I would politetly excuse myself to the bathroom then climb out the window.

"What's the sauce made with?"

"Oh, that's a reduction made from the semen I've accumulated from whacking off all week..."

Well that's the considerate thing to do. You want to make sure your guests get a balanced meal with plenty of protein.

Ick. Not because it's made from humans, but because there'd be far too much fat in them. I can feel my arteries clogging just by thinking about it. Maybe that's the idea? Eat his fat meatballs, then get fat, get lipoed, and feed your fat meatballs to him.

Didn't say offended. Even in a non-political thread you twist the words of the people you reply to. Christ, DK, it's a fucking pathology with you.
