Oh god Lizzie, I hate blister packs so so so so so so much!
Other things I really don't need include - REALITY TV - I find it very embarassing for the people involved, for me, for the television network, and for humanity in general.
I have a vintage green coat with a mink collar I bought at a thrift store (for $15 because it had no buttons). I wear it in the winter on snowy dress-up days - fur is incredibly effective at keeping out the cold and wind. So is down, which I wear when skiing or when it's in the negative...
Although I am a vegetarian, I wear leather, which I feel kinda badly about but my feet don't like vegan shoes! I also wear wool and silk, and don't feel bad about it for even one second. I will wear vintage coats with a fur collar, but I won't buy new fur.
That is probably morally dubious...
That bartender has no idea how to tend bar! Unless it was his first day, there's no excuse for not immediately giving someone their change, whether it's $1.50 or $.25. You give the customer their money back as a sign of respect, even if it's exactly $1, unless they say keep the change. It's...
Mine have always come from eBay or from local thrift/antique stores. You can also try http://www.absolutelyvintage.net/ Sort of expensive though. There's also http://www.michellesvintagejewelry.com/
I don't believe in tipping...
I believe in over-tipping.
Waiters and waitresses work for $2 an hour. Get another job?!! Most of the waiters and waitresses I knew when I was waitressing HAD another job. Or two.
If you don't want to tip your server, don't go out to dinner (or go to a...

Incidentally, they mention Mashti Malone's in that article. Mashti Malone's is RIGHT NEXT DOOR to the Lava Lounge in LA, which is a really awesome tiki bar. Definitely worth a trip to both. I used to live right up the street from there!! :( I miss it.
Here's a pic of the Lava Lounge...
White people can make fun of any subgroup of whites. Including but not limited to: WOPs, Paddys, Frogs, Goombas, Gorilla Heads, Guidos, Herring Chokers, Hicks, WASPs, Degos, Wiggers, and any other number of white-only slurs.

Half-dressed people: BOSTON REPORT
I work in an extremely busy and bustling area of Boston, especially crowded during lunch time. It's really nice out today - about 80, sunny, clear, not humid.
I am pleased to report that I saw probably 1,000 people in the past hour while walking around and...
I don't know if "Gjaike" "Chevaughn" or "Kristopher" are associated with African Americans...they're just variations on Jake, Siobhan, and Christopher, very WASPy. Jordan is a pretty white-bread name too.
By the way, if there were ever any doubt that the rich and skinny have absolutely no idea what to wear, the website www.gofugyourself.com should remove that doubt. It's completely hilarious! It's work safe but blocked at my office. :(
People eat such high-fat low-nutrition diets these days. It's more expensive to buy organic or natural foods, true, but there are really remarkable stats out there. For example, in the past 40 years people have in general gone from spending 18% of their income on groceries to 9%. The...
I can't speak for him, but I think generally we year-2000-something humans tend to believe that "Lean"="good", so overweight people are targeted more negatively than lean people.
If you're asking why *that* is the case, open any fashion mag or turn on the tv.
My friends and I refer to rockabilly as the "punk rock retirement plan". The natural progression for most of the people in the "scene" around here seems to be: skinhead-punk rocker-mod-rockabilly-vintage
(Not skinhead as in Nazi, skinhead as in, shave your head and ride around on scooters and...
