In Australia, being 'black' is the highest compliment. It's not just 'tan', it's 'black'.
I just see skin cancer and bad wrinkles, but that's me, being very, very white, unable to tan.
I see that picture and just think that the woman is a prime candidate for skin cancer. Being in Australia she really should know better as they have been running skin cancer awareness campaigns for years.
@Rare Affinity: Chances are she's a British tourist ;) They are usually the ones walking around Sydney with the darkest shade of lobster red, in their desperation to go home with a tan.
As we in the Northern Hemisphere head in to a cold, dark, winter I want to send a hearty "Fuck You" to those in the Southern Hemisphere. I am so jealous. #swimwearparade
@token_illiterate_commenter: Would it make you feel better if I tell you in some parts of Australia it doesn't really even get cold during winter? You can usually still wear t-shirts ... so it's almost like Summer all year round. #swimwearparade
@token_illiterate_commenter: As we, the ones living in a city without beaches in the Southern Hemisphere, head in to a suffocating summer and have to continue studying throughout it, I send that "Fuck You" right back. I want either warm blankets or a seashore. This sucks. #swimwearparade
@coconanas: Yes, yes, that makes me feel MUCH better. Would it make you feel better to know that we're supposed to get our first measurable snowfall of the winter tomorrow? #swimwearparade
@sarasasa: You don't have to shovel heat. You don't have to scrape heat off from your windshield. You don't slip and break your ass on heat. Heat doesn't fall from above and go down the back of your coat. To be honest, I've lived in various places that didn't have winter and I missed it. I was fucking nuts. #swimwearparade
@Kitty: Can't swing a trip down to SoCal but I do have a trip to Vegas planned for Feb. to help chase the winter blahs away. No beach, but on the bright side I can drink too much and lose a lot of money. Yeah! #swimwearparade
Oh man. I've experienced the fallout of more than a few explosions, and I can say for sure that no diaper is tough enough to withstand such force. I mean really. If something is expelled with so much sudden propulsion that it travels any path it possibly can, nothing, but nothing, is going to hold it in one place. Hence the up-the-back poop-splosion. I don't care if you wrapped the kid in Saran or whatever. That poop is escaping by any means necessary and it is absolutely going to get everywhere. And it'll probably be yellow, too. #poopexplosion
@Aesop's Foibles. YES.: I've found cloth diapers to be AMAZING when it comes to containing poo explosions. Seriously, AMAZING. Something about the "real" elastic works much better than anything else. #poopexplosion
A co-worker confessed that she keeps a pair of scissors in her child's dresser for when she has to just cut the clothing off of her and throw it away. Her kid has digestive issues. #poopexplosion
