Last week, a Miami man was arrested for hosting a “butt pumping party” wherein he administered buttocks enhancements with some unknown material and without a medical license. It’s like a TupperWare party, except with less swelling, infection and black outs on your neighbor’s lawn:

As the procedure was about to start, the women, three undercover police detectives, arrested Anthony Donnell Solomon, 22, of Miami, charging him with practicing without a license.

Picture the person who stumbled in expecting an entirely different sort of “butt pumping” party. Awkward:

”What’s amazing to me is that this is not even unusual,” said Dr. Seth Thaller, chief of plastic surgery at the University of Miami School of Medicine. ‘People get themselves injected with God-knows-what. What I want to ask them is, `What were you thinking?’ ”

Pero, seriously. What were they thinking? Is having a large, round ass really so important to some people that they will let a stranger inject some unknown jelly into it in a hotel room? Is this due to desperation, sheer stupidity, reckless abandon, or some combination of the three?

We realize it’s tempting to blame the media. Ahem:

But we’re not going to sidestep placing blame squarely on people who believe that that pursuit of happiness ends in the form of an apple bottom. Apple-flavored flapjacks, on the other hand…
