Oh my god I’m so glad there’s a space for me to express how stupid this article is. It’s literally the exact same article papers have been writing about rich white kids in Manhattan since the 1920s, updated each year to include the new technology and trend.

This is what Donald Trump thinks a Lady is.

Because every female in your life didn’t have a choice. We (Gen X) do. Our mothers and grandmothers had to wear pantyhose to work. For my grandmother, it was literally part of the dress code. She worked in a department store and wore a skirt with hose and heels every day for almost 30 years. ON HER FEET FOR EIGHT…

I LOATHE the Pandora bracelets. Tiffany too. The whole point of a charm bracelet is to have a personal, meaningful bracelet. Why would you want something that everyone else has?? It’s so weird and tacky.

When Big Foot was little she absolutely went nuts over her dad’s girlfriend’s necklace. She asked for it, was told no and then demanded that she be taken home. She pouted at my house for several days after that. So, she goes back to her dad’s and asks for the necklace again. The girlfriend said no, it had been a gift…

“Still way less than it costs to have a kid” would have been my answer.

I’m not even about to criticize how you handled the situation; there’s no manual for this particular bullshit. As the mother of a (now 14yr old) beautiful beast, I feel qualified to say: kids are gross. They will make you feel gross, too, if it suits their purposes. The best defense is playing offence. If a similar…

I had something similar happen to me last fall in my office that did not involve a child but a fully grown adult. I wear a ring with a rather large amethyst stone that previously belonged to my grandmother who passed a few years ago. It is precious to me and when people ask me or comment on my ring I always say:

Totally hate the adults way more than the kid. It’s not her fault she’s been trained to be a douchelette.

That is amazing lol. Reminds me of this one I’d see as a kid:

I’m your friendly neighborhood Sephora cashier! People somehow don’t realize we’re happy to take returns on used product - we want you to love your purchases! Don’t ever keep something you hate. Especially skincare - it usually takes a week or two to know if it’s working, so please just bring it right on back if you…

you just mansplained pantyhose.

it me

You could tell her about different things that people believe. No one really knows for sure what happens.

Ask her what she thinks. She’s probably heard some things through school, family, etc...

every time i see a kinja notification, i sigh and say, “what stupid shit did i say this time?”

“Tonight, living in a fantasy. Your own little nasty world”. I’ve never been able to find a version to download that isn’t a cover. Also, Sheila E.

6. Her fundamentally purposeless scarf.

That scarf has a purpose: it’s the “Elegant silk sash designed by Anne Rothschild”!!! My mom was a L’eggs woman in the 70s/80s. My sister and I would put the plastic egg halves under our shirts and pretend they were boobs. I don't know why I felt the need to tell you that.

In my love of all things 70s, I’d forgotten how terrible fashions were in the 80s! Shoulder pads! Belts with long shirts! Fur coats worn without any fucks to give! And, of course, the waning days of pantyhose advertisements. Whom among us can forget the Slenderalls commercials with the “dink! dink!” sound effect at…
