  • I'll tell you what's hysterical

    To me, right now, given my financial situation and that of the country, spending $4500 on a freakin' *purse* is just beyond ridiculous. I don't care what it's called, how stylish it is, or how they advertise it. If I had $4500--which I clearly don't--it would be socked away to pay for ever-increasing gas prices, grocery prices, and health care expenses. If I had any left over, I'd save it to keep us going through my spouse's year-long and ongoing unemployment.

    Give me a break. It's an accessory!

  • Ignorance is bliss

    Dude, I didn't even want my eye doctor to *describe* the lasik procedure, much less give me a DVD to witness it. Once he started in with something like "so we'll cut your cornea"....I just said "Okay! Well that's enough knowledge for me!"

    All I know is, I can see now. It's a freakin' miracle. My doctor gets plenty of word of mouth advertisement from me, with no DVD or discount needed.

  • New nickname needed

    Your version of a pit bull in lipstick looks like a much kinder and sweeter creature than Palin.

    I think that phrase should be retired, since most of the pit bulls I've met are very concerned about the well-being of people; Governor Palin doesn't seem to share that characteristic.

  • Ewwww. Just....ewwww.

    I would comment on this topic, but not until I recover from the Q-tip story. Thank you for totally squicking me out.

  • My lowered expectations

    "Imagine a president who can think that well on his feet, and who'll stand up for workers' rights."

    Heck, I'm just happy to imagine a president who can string together an effin' coherent sentence, at this point.
