Ah, the Pogo...I won't eat them, but I do recall the skateboarding commercials around them. Quite a clever way to appeal to the skater generation that seemed to have sprung right out of the ground and spread like wildfire. I'll still never understand that one...
Anyways, moving on...
Random Stupidness for today:
Super glue.
Now, Anyone who knows me knows I keep a tube of it around at all times. However, I am currently out. Of course, that's when my bracelet breaks and my other porcelain thing breaks and my Crow's eye falls off and my figurine snaps. So I guess, the stupid part of all this is that everything decides to break when they know you're out of glue.
In other news, I have to go glue shopping tomorrow....
See ya in the funny papers!!!
Tens
P.S. - Zevie, I can't give up my bad words! I need them! Well, need may be a strong word, but hey. My language skills are apparently compared to a drunken sailor when I get mad...I have the feeling I will be making good friends with the ** sign...The glue reminds me of A Christmas Story when the leg lamp "breaks." "You used all the glue on PURPOSE!" hahahaha |

Random Stupidness for today:
Underwear. Seriously, why does it matter what it looks like?
Ok, this stems from a very good source. I went underwear shopping for my kid brother since he's been sick and needed new ones. I come back with a whole assortment of like 10 sets of underwear - three of which he likes. I just don't get it. Its underwear. You wear it under your clothes so no one else sees it! Why should it matter if his shorts are MASH themed or Polka-dots? He and anyone brave enough to look at his plumber's crack are the only people who are going to see it. He likes ones with cartoons on them, but only specific ones in specific colors and....there is definitely a reason I only buy black and white underwear. But the white ends up going through the wash with my forest green sheets at some point anyways, so there's my adventure!
Thus, it is stupid to complain and not wear the ones I bought just because they aren't his favorites. Thus all male teens, no, men are really little boys who whine when they don't get their ways.
And that was my randomly stupid thought while I was folding laundry, so I should get back to that...
See ya in the funny papers!!!

Random Stupidness for today:
Underwear. Seriously, why does it matter what it looks like?
I never understood that. I couldn't care less what my underwear looks like. (Then again, I also don't care if my sheets match, whereas my mum is offended if they don't. o.O) The last time that my mum took me to purchase bras, I specifically looked for something simple, because, seriously, who's going to care, right? Well, she lectured me about the joys of lace, and how it's good to feel sexy, and that I simply was not old enough to appreciate it. She consulted the woman standing next to us, and they concurred. Then, later, she mentioned to someone how I had bought new bras, and their conversation consisted of: Mum: I can't believe she was walking around with a bra one whole cup size too small. She says she didn't notice... But we fixed that, didn't we, Lara? They're really quite pretty. Person: (in a "yeah, right" tone) And who exactly is she going to be showing them to? No one better be seeing those. And I would have not included any of that, but, hey, this is the section for randomness. I simply wouldn't be fulfilling my duty if I were to be succinct. *salutes* My point is, you're absolutely correct. Cheers! |

I don't care either way what it looks like, as long as it's comfortable and you can't see it through your clothes, but I would absolutely love M*A*S*H themed underwear. What an original idea, lol. That'd probably be the only time I'd care.
I can see them creating a set for each cast member, but then having an assorted package -- undies with a dog tag print, 4077 print, red cross print, etc. :p

Jane, these ones weren't so creative. Army print with the logo on it. I was rather disappointed, but I liked them. I got the pompous reply of "Then you wear them." Yeah, I wish...
See ya in the funny papers!!!

Oh. I didn't know they actually made them! Even if they weren't that great ... I'd still buy them, lol. :)

And then, if you're married (or otherwise significantly-othered), there's the five-minute-underwear (warning: do not continue reading if you really do not want to know) - You wouldn't dream of wearing them all day long (who designs these torture devices, anyway?), but he really wants you to get them, so you do, and you put them on right before...yeah, anyway, and a few minutes later he's all done seeing them on you. Heh.
The bonus is, they will last you for years.

Hilarious. An article of clothing that exists solely to come off.

Hahaha, nice try. If you're 19 and you grew up with Steve and Dally types, Tens, I think your verbal innocence on this subject must be long gone. |

I guess I'm the odd one out.
I like lacey, colourful and matching bras/underwear, whether it's going to be seen or not.

Mars, they admittance is the first step to indulgence. Enjoy your underwear.
That's me in a book store. I pick up one, then I need two and three and so forth. It's gotten to the point where I only order on-line since I can never find anything in store I want. That and I may have been told I was grounded from them....but what I do on the Internet is always fun! I have piles of books to get around to. But when I do that I stop writing, period. So always fun.
See ya in the funny papers!!!

I never really care what my underwear looks like (as anyone could attest who SEES my underwear) but I somehow find that it inevitably matches my shirt - well, almost all the time. It's never on purpose either. I grab underwear and then I go and find a shirt I want to wear, and somehow they usually end up matching. Go figure.
That's pretty funny about bra shopping though, Latch. I would NEVER do that kind of shopping with my mom. Well, not since I was 12 anyway. That's what Rock is for. Lol.

Oh, I wasn't embarassed. I thought that it was pretty funny. But, alas, I don't drive, and so it was either that or my dad. (I wouldn't have minded, but he would have been so flustered. Lol.)
And your shirts match your underwear, Keira? Now, that takes *skill*. Seriously. Perhaps you have a sixth sense...
Cheers!
