My list of things I don't understand ~ feel free to add to it

3/07/2009 23:56
People who dye their black hair blonde and then not bothering to get the re-growth done.

Women who buy a pair of jeans or pants with the leg length too long and they don't bother to take them up - they wear the jeans/pants with the bottom of the pant leg dragging on the ground and it ends up dirty and torn and it looks terrible.

Not sure if this is a new child's fashion but I've seen quite a few young girls (By young I'm talking 7 to 10 year olds) with their skirts down so far that you can see their butt crack ~ it is gross and no matter how you look at it - it's wrong!

Older men - retirement age - who wear track suit pants, with dress shoes, and a long sleeved business tucked into their tracky pants.

I too really dislike comb overs. What are these men trying to do? Fool us that they still have lots of hair?

I also dislike balding men growing their hair long around the sides to shoulder length and then tying it in a pony tail. Laughable.

pssst, I also think tats are cool...;) but don't tell anyone.

me too, but then I have a few!!

what I would really like to know, is why so many women are so very unsupportive of other women? they bag their hair, make-up, clothing and especially their size.........tearing some one else down does not make you look good

I have the Book: Wake up, I'm Fat! by Camryn Manheim [autographed, natch! "Dear Cool, Happy Birthday! Raise Hell, Girl!! Love, Camryn"]

Link

My favorite scene in her book:

As a young overweight girl, Camryn is walking down the street when a girl of a slightly-less, but still large size sees Camryn, and snarkily says to her mates: "Wow! And I thought I was fat!"

Camryn whirls around and says: "You ARE fat! The mere fact that I am also fat does not make you LESS fat!" ]:)

Oh, sorry. It's generally believed to be a short form of "naturally"...but has come to mean (at least to the peeps around me that also use it) "Sweet!" "Bonus!" or "Awesome!"

ah, must be an american term, cause I haven't heard it before.

People I associate with usually just say sweet or cool!

A bit too big for my britches, today. [well, or any other day...as the scale would remind me]

why is it that things that smell HORRIBLE like maggot infested rotten meat........
don't pass on the rottenness to us through our noses?
If we can smell the rottenness, why doesn't it make us sick?

Women who wear high heels despite not being able to walk in them...they look so awkward and uncomfortable yet somehow they imagine it might be sexy?

People who wear thongs on a freezing, rainy day and their feet look blue but they insist they're not cold...I don't believe them.

Heheh. Thongs. Stateside, that could mean either a sandal-type of footwear, or a scanty female undergarment.

Back when I was younger, and I a bit lighter than current state, Miss (then 9? 10?) was going to camp for a week. She hemmed and hawed about the items she should bring.

I'm like, "I can't buy them, unless I know what you need!!"

Miss: "Umm...err....I need some ***** [said in a whisper] for the shower."

ME: "HUH?!?"

Miss: "Thongs! I need some thongs (she, thinking it was the underwear) Can I borrow some of yours, mum?"

She thought she needed thongs (underwear) in order to take a shower, not thongs (footwear). It was really, really hard not to laugh, and to get her a set of thongs (footwear) for camp.

At 18, now she wears thongs (underwear), while I wear thongs (footwear)

I have no problem with tatts too but I have 2 myself. ;)

Re the pant legs draggin on the ground look - I don't like the thick hem nana look either. Since I am not the tallest person around I take my pants/jeans to a lady near me who can sew (I can't sew for nuts) and I get them taken up - she cuts the excess material off so they look nice.
