@CassandraSays: something about Von Furstenberg always did make me think she'd have been an awesome Catwoman (opposite Adam West, of course)

I wholeheartedly agree with your sentiment on makeovers. At the same time, I don't know a faster, more effective way to build confidence in a person than to give them that attention, focus on their best features, and provide a change they can see in themselves.

@cool_as_KimDeal: NO! nothing would let him off the hook. that's exactly what I'm saying. like, okay she did something morally questionable... so? it doesn't excuse his actions. it doesn't let him off the hook at all.

@deleahrium: oh wow. as soon as I posted that I realized it might sound like I'm calling Rihanna (or other bald-headed ladies) a dog. not true. just. our dog, he's a shepherd of some kind, long fur, he looks silly and it's pretty much the most exciting thing to happen all week.

we got the family dog shaved...does that count? am...am I cool now?

Great. They're BOTH bad people. Doesn't let him off the hook, not NEARLY.

@deleahrium: as an explanation of sorts, why I'm honestly concerned and not just "disgruntled":

I like the idea of this - I had a shitty boss, the kind that made me hate coming to a job that I otherwise would have loved, to the point where I was getting sick and having panic attacks in the mornings - I've honestly wished there was a way to warn people about working for this company, this person.

@Facebook: Any ratings site is going to be that way. I've been looking for apartments and every review is either hatred on a stick or else the other reviewers are dismissing good reviews as "employees of the management with nothing better to do"

stream of unconsciousness: because "boy" toys are actually considered more gender neutral (the gender that is not a gender) and "girl" toys are specifically for girls and if you want to go with a gendered (girl) toy, you're paying for that specification? like, you could get the plain, non-gendered (boy) version, or…

@introverted_innovator: yeah definitely take the word "control" with a grain of salt. I was refraining from getting nitpicky about how much "control" she really has over any of it, considering the amount of people that go into the decision-making and actual production of it all.

@filthygorgeous: yes, definitely.

@ExtensionOfBob: I know I know. I'm really trying to be optimistic here!

I was totally unamused by the pug when I saw it on CO yesterday, and I LOVE Batman. But the mash-up has me stifling giggles at work. It's the last one that really slays me, 'cause you KNOW it's coming and then it's better than you expected.

what about Stacey London's signature gray streak?

I like her. She totally makes me think of little Cherie Currie and maybe that's what makes this just not shocking to me. I would have LOVED to do this when I was 17 (even if that is inappropriate). And maybe it's a sort of immature sense of maturity, writhing around in lingerie on a live-action Last Supper table, but…

@mondon: there's a lot of crawling too

@Snowbunny: AND she read his salray wrong off the internet! what the heck! he totally makes as much as a DAG! man, she must be kicking herself.

@sunshinesupergirl: and the use of (what I assume were their) pet names! Lunchbox! The Menu! (the former is kinda adorable, the latter too Jersey Shore wannabe for me, but who knows where they came from)
