I just had this vision of Casper sitting around 30 years from now, chatting with her friends using her brain-embedded chip or whatever, all, "Remember when we were in, like, 5th grade? And shopped at Justice? And everyone was so into duct tape? And those shoes, what were they called - oh, Toms!"
Tracy: Well-- That call -- That call means you just murdered me. Mal: No, son. You murdered yourself. I just carried the bullet a while.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
And shopped at Justice?
Justice is my favorite store at Rookwood Commons. Whenever I'm over there, I get all excited for a minute, and then I realize that it doesn't sell what I think it should sell.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Our local, online paper went THERE with Project Fresh Start! Now the comments section gets to be all about the Welfare Queens and the people using food stamps but having expensive smart phones.
What the fucking fuck, people???

Because books.
I remember those! The Swatch guards, I mean.
And everyone was so into duct tape?
I love trying to figure out what will be this generation's Pet Rocks and sea monkeys. Silly Bandz will be on the list, I bet.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I remember Swatch guards!
I, for one, think that if you lose your job and need to get food stamps step one should be to sell your smart phone for whatever pittance you can get it for and spend twice that much on a flip-phone mid-contract. ::eye-roll::

Totally!
I need to see if I have any pictures of myself in the high-waisted, pleated, black pants I wore every Thursday for years in the early 90s! My Thursday pants! I was trying to see if anyone at work would catch on but they never did.

The 90s are a fashion blur to me. Except for an excellent coat I bought with these great, silver toggles. I still have it and wear it. Best coat, ever.
I remember the Swatch guards, alas, I never managed to get a swatch but coveted them.
I just spent $150 on a balance bike for Owen. He still hasn't learned how to ride a 2 wheeler and he's 9. He has horrible balance so I hope this helps.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I like the idea of Thursday pants very much.
