There's a vast difference between being skinny, and being healthy and/or fit. I've been both- so don't try to play that card, son. When I was modeling, I didn't dare try to do any kind of a workout- gaining even a tiny amount of muscle bulk would put me over a size 3. It was extremely unhealthy. Now, at 5'8" or…

Tractorchick here...I'll do ya one better. I'll run 'em over while wearing my $13 Kirkland men's 34/34 jeans. (BTW, in women's sizes, that translates to about a women's 14- but I could just as easily wear one of my size 16 Jones New York dresses from the Ross, to do the job.)

Speaking as a woman who has been stalked, I find this appalling. Absolutely sick to my stomach.

And decent hand lotion. Not that it'll matter. They'll either make me work at Jezebel's (not the good one!), or put me to work at a polluted site in the hopes that I'll die... some of us would just be poor Auntie material.

Wowsers. This is right up there with all of the recent bridezilla stories! Self-involved douchebaggery-to-be-continued, right thar. God help their child.

Oh thank God! I thought I was the only person on the planet who thought it was...well, ugly as homemade sin! It's like the Summer's Eve of dresses!

These sorts of dresses were the reason that the alternative fashions of the era were so over-the-top- it seemed like your only choices were either to be a perfect little grownup (somebody's secretary-in-training), or...well, look up a buncha music videos from that time, and you'll see what I mean. It was a weird…

Yes. This, precisely.

That. Was. Awesome.

No, no, they don't mind if we wear the maribou slippers with the high heels! You know, the ones that match our bunny ears....

I curtsy in your direction, Madame. Well done!

I do believe I've lost a friend over this one. Thanks, creepy anti-choicers. Great semantics. Double-plus-good, assholes.

I have a 9-year-old boy, and he's a really good kid. However, I hear things from him, ON A REGULAR BASIS, about other kids who are not- and it's terrifying. I agree with you- this stuff is terribly common. I'm grateful that my boy's an active agent for deterring this stuff- he's a tough, smart, decent kid with an…

Thank you- I *knew* such a list had to be out there, but didn't know where to look. Knowledge is power.

Wow. That's taking scrapbooking to an all-new level....

Some of it does harken back to the 80's. And those models need to eat something. BUT- the shapes to those pieces would work on a wide variety of body types, and I love the clean lines- thumbs up!

*Hee hee* There's a Presbyterian church at the edge of my neighborhood that has had their readerboard saying "Live so full that that Westboro Baptist Church pickets you!" I don't go to their church, but am becoming ever more fond of those Presbyterians!

It's because no one feeds them. Poor things.

You forgot the part about the domestic, non-microbrew beer. Lots of it. We're talkin' Miller Time, all the time. And using the bottles for ashtrays. Better yet, as spittoons!

+1 for Penny! :)
