Dear Lane Bryant,

Please stop. Just. Stop. My size system does not need to be reinvented. I do not need a scale of 1-8 with a matching color system. I don't even know what a '3 Red' IS. Now, I understand that when numbers get big, people get scared. Lord forbid someone wear a pair of pants in a size that has a number two in front of it. But really? A whole new sizing system?

How about we look at it from your point of view. Let's assume that every woman in the world is mortally afraid of the number inside her clothing (which seems to be what you're going on, so I'm rolling with it). Odds are that this is because she thinks she is fat and hideous, and putting on a pair of pants in a size 22 affirms this. So instead what you've chosen to do is force all these women into having to re-learn what their sizing is based on your system. I.E.; grabbing several pairs of pants, going into a poorly lit dressing room and squeezing into a few while going WHY AM I TOO FAT FOR THESE FML /WRIST before finding the right pair.

Women's clothing is ridiculous enough when it comes to sizing. Do kindly get out.


Regards,
Natalie

That's all I got to say about that.

Ate South American food. Saw Orphen. We then came back to my place and watched An Evening with Kevin Smith to make me less angry. Baked brownies. Have to be at my mother's house in eight hours.

I am awake at 4:15am. FMLLLLLLLL

But at least my apartment looks snazzy and smells of brownies.

I........

.. think I might be done with friends locking everything. I'm going to start making a few of my posts public again and see how that goes.

Also, fuck you Vegas / Houston time difference. Auuugh I still have jetlag. MY BODY THINKS IT'S 1AM.

Apparently this has been up for awhile and no one's bothered to tell me. But since Amanda's (omichan's) case is still unsolved it's been added to the National Organization of Murdered Children's Database. You can find it here. Her case is case #86.

Title: Test Spin
Author: Zully Quirke (zully)
Pairing(s): Lee/Gaara
Rating: PG
Warnings: Only if you haven't seen the major Gaara fights.
Summary: Probably crack. Lee has the worst luck in the world and Gaara doesn't believe in chance.
Author's Notes: Inspired by a recent "Dare" and "Kiss" challenge I saw posted somewhere. Not necessarily a response to it, just a little crack-y ficlet.
