Right, so not only does this (middle-aged) woman deign to show her face in public, she also does so while daring to sell something as distasteful as a “womens” product.

Yes, indeed, they are. Black cotton all the way. White t-shirts. Khaki or olive shorts. Shoes come in different colors, depending on how fancy the occasion is. We’re all impressed by his flawless sense of style.

Yup, I’m European and there’s a bit more leeway here, but men are still on general afraid to show their legs. Skinny jeans are the norm, kinda, but I see a lot of awkward to-the-knee length shorts. No one, irrespective of gender, looks good in those!.

Wow, that’s very 1982 right there. Also, they’ve made a very lovely girl look like a dowdy flight attendant.

This is correct.

Wait, the guy above him isn’t his father? Is it the one that looks like he should be a musketeer?

Best typo.

This 1959 Barbie doll has questions.

Ha, that’s a great story! I fear we’re dating ourselves here, but that’s okay. I stand by my love of millennium-era pop music.

Yes, daytime things, absolutely. I also think it’s more okay to bring a (quiet, settled) baby to a bar than it is to bring a kid. Babies aren’t very impressionable and are either not mobile or in some sort of seat. Actual kids running around, though? That’s a no for me. Even if well behaved, there’s no accounting for…

It’s Liquid Dreams. Funny, five minutes ago I would have said I’d never heard of O-Town, but I just needed a quick primer to be reminded of them.

I didn’t think I had read anything of hers, but I read that article just this week (I’m a big EAR/ONS-non-fan). It was very good.

I’ve always thought that’s exactly what happened. The model shoots they encouraged and paid for when she was a young kid weren't exactly geared towards modeling clothes.

No, I can’t imagine. It’s beyond the scope of my imagination. To have that scene played over and over in your head, knowing you weren’t there and couldn’t do anything about it must be torturous.

Hm, interesting, thanks. I probably won’t do anything about it (too cheap and lazy), but it’s nice to know there’s a way out. It’s always been one of my biggest insecurities.

That makes sense. It’s also a little depressing as that space is what I’d like corrected.

Right. That’s my line of thinking. I have a very thin upper lip and would kill for Lawrence’s lip. The idea of getting Kylie’s on the other hand, seems ludicrous.

I started teaching high school at 24 and felt the same way. 31 now and sometimes I still do. Most of the times, it’s not down to age but to experience. Take your time to grow into the role properly.

That’s admirable. Yes, he probably has his demons. I hope he’s gotten better since then.

I haven’t read it, but I remember hearing about it when the book came out. Does he come off as a nice person in the book, then? I’d always kind of figured that since they were already broken up by then, she might not have portrayed him in such a good light.
