ME TOO! Even after fucking fashion school I don't know wtf they are talking about in those patterns. And I always cut out something WAY too big, even though the measurements were right. I think you need to drop acid to understand them clearly.

Oh this is so funny. I learned from my mom and her mother, my grandma. Mostly from mom, though, and she was so disdainful of everything she had been taught in home ec (back in the 1950's, when she was in high school, all girls HAD to take home ec). She engineered her own methods of marking darts and pleats and…

You guys! I'm sewing again! (first time in many moons. A decade, even)
I'm doing a Hallowe'en costume: the cute little fat fairy Merryweather, from 'Sleeping Beauty.' Since I'm cute and fat myself, it won't be too big of a stretch. :-p

Brides are awful but I think the bridal parties are also growing in insanity. I'm dealing with a maid of honor right now for a friend's wedding who is HELLBENT on getting the bridal party to dress in slutty Marie Antoinette costumes for the Marie Antoinette themed bridal shower.

Me, too.

For instance - in Miley's photo, she is wearing a thong that is at most 1 inch wide, that is pulled up tightly.

Infinitely more talented, interesting, and ultimately more confident.

I'm so so sick of pop stars proclaiming that their being naked is about empowering women. Women have been objectified and exploited sexually against their will since the dawn of time. What makes willingly presenting oneself for objectification an empowering act for womankind? You are still seeking validation for the…

So when Carly Rae Jepsen and Zooey Deschanel dress kinda demurely, they're infantilizing themselves and therefore Part Of The Problem, but when Miley and Rihanna get nearly-naked, they're objectifying themselves and also Part Of The Problem.

Good, good... the public grows weary of all these little, naked pop stars and redirects its attention to the entertainer we OUGHT to be seeing everywhere:

God, Terry Richardson is so disgusting.

"Izzy Azalea claims she's been 'twerking' for over two years"

Ok, fine Iggy, you invented twerking. I invented the idea of choreographed dancing. So, neener neener.

As a Brit, I have 2 things to say:

1: Your political system is WAY fucked up.

2: You need to get on this socialised healthcare shit ASAP. It is GREAT. You are going to LOVE IT.

It's easy because I never bought their pasta anyway, but I kind of feel bad in these situations because plenty of decent folks end up working for these companies and now are like, "WTF... why couldn't he just STFU?"

DUDE, ME TOO. I was going to post the same thing, but I got distracted on Youtube.

I read Silverchair and my mind immediately went to my high school dream boy, Daniel Johns.

Really? An entry about the Girl Scouts and NO mention of the cookies? I woke up this morning in crazy town because the government is broken?

Pretty much.

I've heard the same, and if "religious households" aren't the lowest common denomination of "horrible childhoods", I don't know what is!
