It was that Debra Winger movie. 

The only Dress Barn I’ve been to was in Lubbock, Texas, in the poor part of town, next to a laundromat, and Latina women shopped there, so point in your favor. Who died and made upper-middle-class white women’s tastes the only approved tastes? People of color have been dressing up more than upper middles for a long…

The commenters aren’t shitting on it (much).  The Jezebel writer was totally shitting on it.  Cool, the 80's are back!  Mock everything working-class! 

Ever tried Costco for jeans?  That’s the only place I shop anymore  ...  cheap and good fit

Do they yet know whether that driver had overheated brakes or what?  

Same here.  I work in a very female-dominated environment and this crap goes on.  I’m told it goes on in the nursing home, so there’s that to look forward to. 

Well, one thing I remember is that Tom Wolfe said everything was about status.

Am I the only one who cynically things a ton of adult (and high-school age) friendship is about status? And that it’s hard to figure out because no one talks about status?

I grew up working-class and aced the standardized tests all on my own. I got a National Merit scholarship, full ride. Yet everyone thinks I’m stupid because of my Southern accent. One time at a work event, the speaker gave us a math brain teaser and I solved it by making it into an equation. Others couldn’t understand…

Victoria Beckham. 

I’d pay that cop to do a standup show

They’re funnier than you.  Jealous?

Local here.  At one time I thought it was a PR person or maybe a writer at an ad agency, but it’s a real cop.  We locals don’t mind.

Not quite the same but I had a bit of a similar situation. Old lady made a left turn and was *really slow* pulling into a parking space, leaving the other would-be left-turners behind her sticking out into busy traffic.  Well, the car BEHIND me honks.  Not I!   And when I got into the store, the old lady angrily…

Israel Keyes was a lot like him and got away with it for a long time, in part by studying him. 

A major takeaway for me from all the Bundy stuff is just how many people left their keys in their cars!  Anywhere he went, he was able to find a car with keys in it lickety-split... 

I think she truly thought he was innocent until the evidence became overwhelming...and like Ann Rule, she eventually accepted that he was guilty. 

There are numerous accounts from women who were approached by him and lived, that he definitely gave off a creepy vibe, not a charming and debonair one! One woman who danced with him at Sherrod’s nightclub on the night of the Chi Omega murders said “I think I just danced with Jack the Ripper!” Another said he was just…

I agree!  I read one article that said whatever is messed up in serial killers begins about age 5.  Not sure if true, but one good thing about the series is in Episode 1 when it goes back to his childhood and says he was up to creepy stuff even then.  Setting “tiger traps” for girls in the woods, fantasizing about…

Good point. There was no shortage of women who found him instantly creepy when they encountered him. I remember reading that someone who danced with him at Sherrod’s nightclub said “I think I just danced with Jack the Ripper!” earlier on the night of the Chi Omega attack...and that same night, someone described him…
