Re: Ungaro: Hmm. Does that mean at some point in time, I might actually be able to afford one of the dresses from Lindsay's collection? Because I liked four of them a lot, which probably means that I have zero taste. #lindsaylohanungaro
That Anthropologie is highly profitable does not surprise me. They carry the same made-in-a-faraway-sweatshop level of quality as Urban Outfitters(aka, very low quality), but at a much, much higher price point. Quite brilliant, really.
@NoelleBlue: I got a gorgeously overpriced set of glazed pottery measuring cups there that I adore. I practically opened my wallet and asked them to take out the amount they felt was fair. Hypnotized, I also signed up for their frequent shopper thingy, even though "frequent" and "Anthropologie" won't be mentioned in the same breath in my house very often. #lindsaylohanungaro
I want to say something mean and snarky about Mr. Bourke, like Oh, he should really be going to jail for producing such ass-ugly handbags, but I won't because I know some people like them.
Betsey Johnson, please don't redesign your stores! The one in Soho has been the object of my sartorial fantasies since I was a teenager! It's the end of an era, I say; I'm shedding a tear.
Have any of you ever had those dreams where your body's suddenly bulbous? Your limbs are too big, pieces are becoming increasingly disproportionate ... scary as hell, basically.
That's what the McQueen/GaGa shoes remind me of. #ragtrade
@hortense: I'm a poor, so I've been doing the construction-paper-and-superglue version for a while. They're great unless you want to shower sexily. #lindsaylohanungaro
Isn't this the same dang statement Katy Perry makes every week? "I swear, I'm totally not a slut, don't let the pantsless bananasuit fool you, I am totally not having the sexy sexual sex, certainly don't THINK ABOUT HAVING SEX WITH ME." Katy. No one cares if you have sex. No one cares if you're not having sex. I would say "stop this transparent bid for attention" but that's kind of your whole deal, isn't it?
And yet your music is so catchy and I cannot quit you. Sigh.
I do not understand why it is so important to people that the two kids from Twilight are dating each other in real life. Can someone explain this to me?
I totally agree with Molly Ringwald, and I'm not even having twins. I love being pregnant for the most part, but I hate feeling so weak and helpless. Nobody will let me carry anything or DO anything, seems like. People look at my belly sympathetically and ask me if I need anything. I know folks are trying to be nice, but it makes me feel guilty, like I'm somehow milking my 'condition' when in fact I do little to draw attention to it.
That, and the constant heartburn and having to waddle like a duck really sucks. Oh, and I can't get out of bed by myself anymore.
It's really insulting that 7 out of 10 people who don't know what the fuck they're talking about think that mentally interesting people shouldn't be allowed to do things. Yeah, we get sick. We need more support and we need to be hospitalized. Same with people with physical illnesses. But when some cancer kid gets to star in a play, people applaud. When it's someone with anxiety and whatever the fuck Susan Boyle has, people want to stick her in an asylum and keep her away from the norms.
@BytheSea: I don't think that's what the survey is saying. It's not that mentally ill or disabled ("interesting?" I'm unfamiliar with that term) people shouldn't be allowed to do things; it's that we should make sure people with mental health issues aren't harmed or exploited in situations like these. To go on a show like Britain's Got Talent and to garner so much attention as Susan Boyle has would be difficult for even a very stable, healthy person. From what I've read it seems that the show has exploited and perhaps exacerbated Boyle's mental health issues, and that's not okay. There needs to be better screening in place-- and better handling of contestants overall-- to ensure that everyone is fit to handle all the pressure and stress of the competition.
@BytheSea: And I'm guessing that the 7 out of 10 don't seem to have a problem with reading all the tabloid gossip about her. In my opinion, being hounded by paparazzi and "journalists" is way more damaging than being on the show (regardless of your mental health). Also, hearted because I suffer from anxiety too.
When my little sister, who is 14 years old, explained to her friends that her older sister is bisexual, the first reaction was: "Oh, like in that Katy Perry song?"
@counterclockwise would vote for Jed Bartlet: Should I count this as an itty-bitty step forward from the whole "I don't believe in bisexuality" stance? I continue to be completely at a loss to explain why people are so invested in who other people are attracted to or sleeping with. If it's not with me, and it's not with someone I'm dating, I have zero investment. Moving on.
@counterclockwise would vote for Jed Bartlet: Well, at least the song itself sounds a lot like the first experimentations of a bi girl who had previously identified as straight.

Hmm, does the foot sit on top of a giant platform, or is the sole of your foot toward the bottom of the shoe, with most of the bulk on top?

@Mary McCarthyite: Okay, here is my guess....
The foot is positioned inside the bulb just like it would be in a normal heel. I assume it felt like walking in REALLY high platforms.

No. Not like the Katy Perry song.
