    Bottom right of #10: "Give your cubicle mate this fun and functional gift"...nothing says success in the workplace like a boobie mouse pad.

    Also, Zombies are clearly not Sleepless in Seattle (heyo!)

    The necklace in #10 bears a striking resemblance to one of my belly dancing belts. I might have to try wearing it around my neck to my next gala appearance.

    ...Oh, wait.

    Also, I'm pretty sure the girls of Blue Crush would describe her hairstyle as "triple overhead," and that's awesome.

    That is all.

    In reply to The Critics Aren't Impressed With Lindsay Lohan's Fashion Week Debut
    At this point it must be very hard to be Lindsay Lohan. It seems people just want her to fail.

    I think the problem with the show was more in the styling than in the clothes themselves. There are actually some really nice pieces in the collection but they get lost b/c they are paired with a tube top or silly heart pasty thing.

    Looking back at the pics from this morning, I think the biggest problem with the collection is that it lacks coherence. Its hard to see how the white jumpsuit from pic #2, the hearts and stripes dress from pic #10 and the blue pants & tube top from pic #23 are even part of the same collection.

    Overall, even if Ungaro wanted a celebrity to bring more youthful attention to the brand, I'm not sure Lindsay was the best choice. I don't really see her personal style really meshing with the POV of Ungaro.

    @erinna: I think that's true. The collection was VERY Lohan, which is what Ungaro wanted. I don't think she can really be blamed for delivering exactly what was asked/expected of her.

    @hortense: @erinna: maybe Lindsay should be like Kelly Bensimon and not put her name on anything.

    Also, I feel like this is one of those instances where someone asks you to lend a hand with a project and then you get thrown under the bus for the entire thing.

    @erinna: Your last paragraph. If you want to expand the demographic related to your aesthetic, you have to look at the aesthetic first, not just ... choose somebody who a) ordinarly embodies its complete opposite but b) just happens to look good in yours.

    @thePrototype: I don't think I'd put braces in the "cosmetic surgery" category. Lots of kids "need" them--orthodontists and dentists don't always differentiate between needing them for actual bite/eating/health reasons and just to make your teeth fit together better.

    But maybe I'm just defending a "cosmetic procedure" I thank God every day I had access to at a young age.

    @thePrototype: i had to have orthodontic surgery as a child because i had severe malocclusion of my upper teeth. perhaps it was cosmetic, but im glad that my canine teeth are no longer busting through my gums above the rest of my teeth and i didn't have to go through adolescence looking like a vampire in those pre-twilight days. and i imagine that i would probably would have encountered some serious oral health problems if i hadn't had the attended to early on.

    @nothanks: The British have the good sense not to put themselves and their children through years and years of expensive and painful dental treatment in the name of straight teeth. It's just not as culturally acceptable as it is in the States.

    @geekgirlliz: Mmm, having lived in Britain for eight years I do think that British people sometimes go too far in the other direction, taking a perverse pride in ugly teeth. While it's mostly a cosmetic issue, I know several people in their 20s and 30s who are now having to spend quite a bit of money to correct problems that could have been prevented/treated much more easily and cheaply through braces when they were young.

    And I get tired of British magazines and newspapers poking fun at people with teeth that they have judged to be too perfect or too white, like it's a sign of decadent morals (a la The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire).

    @geekgirlliz: I think you'll find it's more common here than you think. I certainly had years of painful dental work - partly cosmetic, and partly to repair the damage done in a skiing accident when I was 8. Not everyone has braces, sure. But you won't find many 20-year-olds with wonky teeth: the majority will have chosen to have braces.

    @NotMandatory: Really? I'm British and all of my friends (who weren't lucky enough to be born with straight teeth) have had braces. I've had six years, due to complications, of braces. Sure, teeth whitening isn't so common, but are you seriously saying everyone in Britain is walking round with wonky, yellow teeth and taking pride in it? Because I call bullshit on that one.

    I can't believe that more people on this post are way more concerned about #9 than about the elitist, snobby attitude he displays in #6, where he says life is too short to waste on someone without income. Really?? So if your girlfriend recently got laid off or just doesn't want to waste her money on those TJ McThursdaytown shots, she's somehow morally deficient? Reminds me of how debtors used to be thrown in jail. Pretty sick of this guy, in my opinion.

    I really don't have much of a problem with #10 and #2. Especially #2. No matter who you are, you don't want to get involved with someone on the wrong side of the law, or someone who doesn't respect laws. But as others have said, this entire article is poorly worded. It's very bro-centric, which makes me bro-nauseated.

    I don't know about the rest of you, but I feel like there are some legitimate points in #10. I've met people like that, and it's not worth staying in a relationship if you're not on the same intellectual level.

    Granted, I do believe that this whole article should be titled, "Ten Ways to Tell that She's Just Not For You."
