Have you carried out a successful con? Perhaps you hustled a few quid off a stranger, or defrauded a multi-national company. Or have you been taken for the wide-eyed, naive rube that you are?

One of my friends is a food stylistAnd she said that they've started cracking down on styling food for photography (Trading Standards yadda yadda, food in picture must be real food, completely edible yadda yadda). So now they spray everything with oily water (to get the glistening effect - it's still edible, even if completely disgusting), stick stuff in the freezer for a few mins to stiffen it up and stop it losing its shape or slumping in any way...
The worst job she had to do was styling burgers for a DcMonalds shoot. She had to cook 100 burgers and 100 buns, simply so they could get the best angle possible. Of course, when one actually goes to that fine establishment to purchase a burger, do they cook 100 of them until you get the perfect one? Nope!
