Madame Carven thinks Miss 2000 will hark back to romantic drapery.

Well, I wouldn't call it romantic, but it is drapery: [link]

And I'm off to shop!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

So angry at everyone who works here.

Also, I've been putting forth a $20 bet that I get stood up.

Thrive to spite them

Jacques Heim thinks a popular wardrobe item in the year 2000 might be a fishnet costume treated to protect milady from atomic radiation; a full skirt would be designed to envelope the wearer completely

I swear I've seen something like that on Go Fug Yourself.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I swear I've seen something like that on Go Fug Yourself.

Maybe that's where today's fugly clothes come from - fashion designers of the 1950s trying to escape the coming Atomic Wars by traveling into the future....

On the first, that really sucks, on the second: t momvoice Allyson. t /momvoice

I discovered today how I can really freak out the circle of local friends that I've had since I moved here: ask for help with something that's not a ride to the airport or somesuch.

Huh.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

I watch it by myself, because I tend to flail and make a lot of incoherent noises.

I watch it with Mr. Jane who acts like he's being all indulgent about it, but is always bawling by the end of the hour. I'm usually wishing FNL were a tiny cocker spaniel puppy I could snuffle and cuddle. Not to get all Abdulian about it.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

So very sleepy. I consider it a major accomplishment that I didn't fall asleep during the training session for the new system at work.(Which I don't completely understand. Maybe that's how I stayed awake, sheer panic)

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

sarameg momvoicing Allyson is completely adorkable.

Also, t no-nonsense friendvoice Allyson, DUDE. If someone else were running around your office taking $20 bets that a friend of yours was gonna get stood up, you'd be there defending your friend and beating the asshole stand-up bookie with a... a... a centrifuge, or an atom-splitter or a Mars probe arm or whatever your science guys happen to have lying around. You're so fiercely loyal that you'd draw blood before you'd let someone shit on your friend like that, even in fun, even just as a joke. You wouldn't stand for it.

Please, (a) be as loyal to yourself as you'd be to your friend, and (b) have some pity on the rest of us who think you're smart and awesome and much better than you realize, and who would like to pound the cruel person capping on you right now, except we can't because that cruel person is you. Dude, seriously. t /no-nonsense friendvoice

Also, I've been putting forth a $20 bet that I get stood up

We should all take you up on it because then we'd get a free $20 but then you'd owe so much money. Silly woman.

Mom-report: still mad at me and wouldn't let me go with her to the hospital to visit my own children. Seriously.
