Yes!

I wish this thread could go on indefinitely. Just a waterfall of animals in wearing tophats and dinner jackets.

So far, the ongoing push to make shorts high-fashion is more miss than hit, but I am fully in support of the aspiration. I think that a stripped down toreador jacket could have gone further than this particular Matrix-style trenchcoat.

Yeah, he was extremely rude. I just don’t know how you interview people like Paris Hilton and have it be anything but a shit show one way or the other. She is boring as hell.

Sure. I think I agree with you. The question is, how do you interview someone who is actually not that interesting? Because we are talking about a person who has had to entertain America for decades at this point. And each night the host has to keep it fresh and adjust their style to a different personality. I can…

SNL is going to throw some writer under the bus for this. I can’t imagine Lorne Michaels would take the hit if he could avoid it at all.

Considering the shape of gossip in America, little baby Mia would be better off just learning not place her self-worth in gossip rags.

1.) Notice that children in other parts of the world don’t have this problem?

I’m certainly not above it. I’m an American. I wear clothes. That doesn’t change the facts. We’re on a blog that features fashion. The least we can do as consumers —and it is truly the very least— is be straightforward about the crimes we are committing.

True! But it’s America’s mania for a bargain that got us to this place.

Yeah, I think that kind of information is the garnish that we use when we don’t really know anything about the person. It’s a collection of mini-scandals meant to defame. The fact that the fashion industry is based almost exclusively on sweatshop labor, I think that probably says more about people in her line of work…

I have no idea who Jenna Lyons is as a person, but as high-flying icons of style go, I kind of want to eat her brains and consume her super powers.

Ha! Yes, that strategy has worked so well for people with AIDS.

Another reason to keep using condoms.

That shit ain’t free, Madeleine. You want to know that, you gotta pay money for it.

Another interesting fact about the royal family; during the many bomb raids of London, they were urged to flee to safety. But they stayed and even contributed personally to the war effort, including Elizabeth herself. They were role models for the “Remain calm and carry on” ethos of England in that time.

Speak for yourself. Bill Nye is hot stuff!

See, her explanation should just be understood. But America is, just in general, filled with illiterate assholes, who require that the artist step outside of their role and explain things to them in step-by-step detail. OPPRESSION IS REAL, NOT JUST IN YOUR FAVORITE PICTURE MOVIE.

Along those lines, prepare yourself for smalltime bribery. And by that I of course mean arrange for a candy bowl or tea selection either in the break room or at your desk. People are easier to engage with if you’ve just given them a minor but fun gift.
