What's something modern you won't miss when it becomes obsolete?

If the guy is going to wear a Nazi uniform, he should at least learn how to wear it correctly. The insignia looks like a mix-match of just whatever he happened to fancy.

Nazi? Schmatzi!

Hmmph.


Cheap polyester East German tunic with cheap reproduction insignia.

I've outfitted a number of stage productions with them, but tend to be more careful about correct insignia and medals.

While I understand the frustration over such fools as parents, I am not willing to cede the power of such choices to some government body. The government can't even get a package delivered on time for me and yet they are going to determine who has children. :rofl: Nah...

That was never my inference or intention. It was merely an irony of sorts on how easy it is to be a parent - that is, conceive and birth a child, and many people who do this are barely 'parents.' Regulation on this is not desirable. This ain't China.

The phrase own it as used in the sentence, "I know that I'm selfish, shallow, and vain, but at least I own it."

Hmm... that does not make it any better. Sorry.

Well, you are here so that goes to show that you have some level of taste and decorum.
Oh and 7 children?!:faint:

I agree.
And an Elvis lamp to boot.
See, to me that's like the leg lamp in A Christmas Story.
I'd display it proudly on a table, in the front room, so everyone could see it.
This from a man that has a rooster lamp.
No really, it's a wooden rooster about 2ft high, and it's a lamp.
Still not the King though.

Congratulations DH, TCB buddy, TCB.

Lizzie you must be a barrel of laughs. Is there even 1 minute in the day you are not pissed off?

Infuriation is like any other skill -- to maintain a level of excellence, you must practice, practice, practice.

With the sorry state of modern society, how can anybody not be pissed off all the time?

Good point, but I stay happy because I know I have somewhere that I don't have to worry about the modern world

Back on topic of things that grind our gears...

People who sit in the smoking section then complain about people smoking.

 

[vintageTink]

People who go to the store in pajamas when they're not sick. I managed to put pants on. Why can't you?

People complain to no end when I forget to put mine on.

I would add that that this extends to any public place. Airplanes are my current hot button.

Last time I flew (SEA to LAX) I wore a sundress and flats as well as appropriate underthings. My hair was in victory rolls, I had lipstick on. I got stared at the whole time. It was disconcerting.

 

[AtomicEraTom]

Why can't people dress up, even a little bit before they go out? Is it that difficult to put on some halfway decent clothes and run a comb through your hair? Heck, put a hat on, even!

Next time don't wear the underthings.

Pajamas and store mean Walmart to me.
Am I wrong in thinking that?

I've never seen pajamas worn in our local Wal-Mart. I *have* seen them worn in our local art museum. Make of that what you will.

 

[dh66]

I've seen folks wearing a lot worse than pajamas up in the walmart.

Yeah, that's not really an option. Lol

Maybe they consider walmart an upscale place and wouldn't dream of being seen in pajamas.

I know. I understand bad hair days but you really can't be bothered to put clothes on? It'll make your hair less noticeable.
