I was trying to decide if the punctuation was the clue it was really bad!fic.

I've seen many bricks, and none of them were pink. That tobacco color looks like bile on my monitor. I bet they wouldn't sell many bile-colored capris. I would, and do, wear red with black. I would not wear red with pink or orange unless I were dressing up as a 60s go-go girl. In summary, Trinny and Susannah can collectively kiss my pale white black-clad butt.

I think it all depends on the red, really. LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE.

I used to wear a lot of red, usually with black. It's a good, strong, contrast. Trinny and Susannah ... well, to each her own.

What color is the embroidery, ita? Or is the whole skirt brick red?

I admit, I am wearing brick red shorts. In days past I have worn them with a rust orange shirt. Today I am wearing them with a shirt that is patterned in flowers of faded red, brick, and blue, on a tan background.

What color is the embroidery, ita?

The embroidery is the same brick red, just shinier.

I am dressed the same colour as my car, for those who have seen it. It's a pretty close match.

I agree with Trinny and Susannah more than most fashion people about shape, but NSM about colour. But I am severely limited in the colour realm. I lack imagination when it comes to colour mixing, unless it's pre-done for me in a pattern. At which point I will wear some pretty strong stuff without a bit of concern.

Wait--do T&S think I shouldn't be wearing miniskirts at 42? Because they can bite my middle-aged ass, if they do.

I have purchased my Captain America T-shirt for the movie. I hope Polgara will still go with me, even if I am Dorkus Comicus Maximus. It's my first Marvel logo tee. And I've never bought a Captain America comic. Just...Wolverine and Storm don't have logos, you know?

I think it all depends on the red, really. LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE.

With attitudes like yours, it's amazing that anyone gets voted into office. Get radical, man!

As for Strunk/White--I am such a delicate flower that I can't even read obviously parodic RPF. I'm beginning to think something is wrong with me, the speed with which I backclicked away from that excerpt. IT'S JUST SHITS AND GIGGLES, ita.

Argh, I'm at work and can't watch the World Cup, but I'm reading the ESPN live chat. STRESSFUL.

I just spent way too long with a supervisor at Amazon customer service explaining why the rep who called me "Lizzie" was rude and insulting.

World Cup Spoilers:

If the US can hold on for the next twelve minutes--eh, who am I kidding? They're getting out-shot 3:1. They'll never survive overtime at this rate.

Cereal:

I sit corrected. WOOOOT!
