Good Morning America just did a feature on what’s apparently the hottest new trend in re-configuring your body: getting your ears tweaked into a living version of Will Ferrell’s from Elf.

To get your elfin ears, the practitioner slits open the cartilage at the top of the ears and sews it back together to create a point.


So apparently the dude that does this isn’t actually a doctor or surgeon (eep!), so you can’t receive any anesthesia for the $600, 20-minute procedure.

Well, golly gee, sign me up! My boss is gonna love this. [Huff Post]
