mimi: grosssssssssss

before i begin, i must state two things:

1. i would like to correct my latest entry...the cigs were in fact bradley cooper's and not javier's. i do, however, stand by original opinion...the movie was horribly obnoxious.

2. fmylife.com aka the funniest website ever (aside from this blog).

in other news, i would like to discuss something very near and dear to all of us....ugly articles of clothing. we all own them, and most of us have the good sense not to wear them out of the house, and if we do, then it was purely meant in jest. for instance, i own a pair of thermal leggings...cream with little pink flowers...easily the dorkiest pair of pseudo-pants ever created. i always wore them to steve (aka stevenson library) to study with ali last year... let's be serious, i would do this out of sheer amusement. ali always did get the best "oh-mimi-i-am-soooooo-pissed" looks on her face when i came out of my room and that was worth the ridiculousness of wearing the therms (with the large black lace up boots, of course).

however, we all have those friends who own, slash constantly wear, that shirt or dress or jacket or etc. etc. etc., which just looks horrible. HORRIBLE, like you cringe every time you see them in it. a little part of you might die inside if you see he/she in that disgusting excuse for clothing again. i know, i know... it's immature, superficial, and mean, but i ALSO know that those of you reading this are nodding in agreement, whether it be a violent shaking of the head or a quiet cock of the chin. if you can honestly say that you do not agree with me, then you sir, own that ugly piece of garb, which your beloveds cringe at every time you allow it to see daylight or a lightbulb.

unfortunately, since i am not here to hurt feelings, i will only mention one example of this rampant phenomenon....the ugly scarf collection of an ex-friend (name withheld). she had a good 20-30 scarves; all pastel, all fuzzy, and all hideous. thank god its only cold in nashville for three months and therefore, i only had to put up with them for a quarter of a year...still, it was a lot to ask of someone who takes pride in her personal style. anyway the point, the ugliest of all the ugly scarves was pastel pink and fuzzy to the point where she left a trail behind her. please divert your attention to the picture above and as you can see, no need for bread crumbs in our forest loves! this scarf resembled something your mother might have bought you when you were 8 and a little girl, who liked little girl things (i.e., barbies, stick on earrings, and scrunchies). even so, you still would have told your mom it was disgusting and that you wouldnt be seen in such a juvenile accessory (obviously not in so many words, but still). the point is, you would hypothetically be an 8 year old saying this....my ex friend was anywhere from age 18 to 22 wearing this scarf. who knows it may still be dancing around her 23 year old neck as we speak. lucky for me, i dont have to see it anymore. honestly, i almost burned the thing last year. ughhh where were stacy and clinton when i needed them???

yes, it's true, a person can possess such hatred towards a single article of clothing or an accessory. case in point: me.

peace kidsssss,
mimi.


post script: did i mention that the same chick also owned light blue gloves that wouldnt keep a hamster warm in a toaster?
