Shit's all sorts of different now.

I remember that I was watching an episode of some 80's sitcom (I think it was The Nanny, if anyone cares), and they were in a modeling agency. One woman said to another "oh, you're a perfect size 6, you'll get a ton of work". SIX. I repeat SIX. and what's the average model now, a 0? double 0 ?

In Pretty Woman JR is a size 6.

I thought about clicking on links to pictures of models, but decided thinking about the hotness of Vortex would be more rewarding.

aww, thanks *blush*

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Allison swore she was a size 10

Then Allison has never seen a size 10 person. Her model had wider hips and shoulders than your average model, but still no visible fat or muscle on either.

And of course, there's the fact that different designers cut differently, so that the exact same body may be a 6 in one, but an 8 in another.

This is true too -- if you're not making ready-to-wear, do size numbers have any relevance at all? It shouldn't matter what jean size she wears if her measurements are right on the table in front of you.

Of course, she also said she was a 6-8, which didn't sound (look?) right either.

I voted! DOWN WITH SCHAEFER! I love voting. No lines for my precinct at all. May have to switch to evening voting.

As I was walking the gauntlet of campaign workers, refusing literature, I finally got to this one guy who just grinned at me and said "You've already made up your mind." "Yes, sir." "That's awesome! ..even if you aren't voting for my dude!" It just cracked me up.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

I voted! DOWN WITH SCHAEFER!

Amen. I'm off to do the same. Hopefully, there will be no lines at my precinct either.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have had the worst meeting luck. I think I had four on my calendar and none happened properly.

AND my tummy hurts, AND I only have Visio 2002.

I'll vote for whoever opposes him in the general election if he wins the primary. Unless, god forbid, the republican's candidate is even worse. But that would take some doing, I suspect.

Those of us in MD who can't vote in the primary thank you.

This is still a gross site, even knowing that Jeff is a cat.
