He said 1) the belt helps, 2) you get used to it, and 3) yes. Now when he sees me on the bus he gives me a little smile and a wave. And if his gang-dressing buddies are with him, they politely ask me the time. Cool.

I always want to ask them how they will be able to run from someone if they have to. They can hardly walk... and can you imagine them on a bicycle?

Good news is, the boys' pants are so baggy and low hanging that they can't really chase the girls, just shuffle along. And the girls sort of mince along, since they can't really abduct their legs at all...kind of a slow-motion event.

I truly don't get this thing with boys & men wearing huge earrings, pigtails, stuff like that. It's supposed to look manly? Pants falling off them, enormous shirts...they look too dim witted to dress themselves in the right clothes. I suppose it's like yuppies with sweaters tied around their shoulders in the 80s....ah, fashion.

My vote goes to those rings people are putting in their ears. Not traditional earrings. I don't know what to call them, but the point seems to be to make a big honking round hole in the ear lobe. They start small and can go bigger than a grommet in a shower curtain. (I've seen mostly guys doing this but who knows...it could be a girl thing too)

First off...oh my lord, that has got to hurt! :eek:

Secondly...ewwww! :eek:

I've probably gone and offended someone with said ear attachment on this forum. But it just looks like a portable torture chamber. And there is no beauty in it. It's ghastly. And useless!

Do they know how hideous their ears with said holes are going to be when they are 80?

Frankly, I'm glad I'll be dead so I won't have to look.

Ah, Fashion is ALWAYS useless!
Yes, they are going to look interesting when they are in their 70's!

This phenomenon is also known as a "busted can of bisquits".

I am *not* looking forward to fall with all of the skinny-legged jeans coming back in full force. Last year's equestrian thing, with the slim jeans tucked into the boots, was bad enough. People seriously need to learn to look in the mirror before they go out...or buy pants that fit.

I never really understood sunless tanning cream. Guaranteed to turn you a perfectly natural bright orange color...

"This phenomenon is also known as a "busted can of bisquits".

What a perfect description!!

"busted can of bisquits"

That is perfect! We have our summer students around now and I unfortunately see waaaaay to many "busted cans of bisquits" every day.

OK. What girl looks in the mirror at her fat puffing out over and around the top of her jeans and says...."Sexxxxy!" I mean, I spend so much of my time disguising belly and hip fat, and they accentuate it?!? Perhaps I need to embrace this trend....NOT!

Kind of like at almost every wedding there's some woman who's dressed waaaay too sexy for a wedding, usually in some low-cut sheer number with black panty hose and sky high rhinestone heels...I just picture her at home, saying, oh, yes, this is the outfit for the blessing of a sacred union! :eek:

(can you tell I've been working straight through since last night and am cranky?) Off call in 36 minutes!
