CP~ I never thought of it that way. That is possible.

And, that is true, also, NA. I do make sure my clothes are not horrid. I usually head off for my walk or run directly after dropping off my son at school. I do try and keep up my appearances there. I make sure that everything is put together and looks 'neat'. But, I just don't worry about wearing fashionable workout clothes. As long as it is comfortable. I have to say, the Hubster loves his workout clothes to be 'nice'. He buys them as much as I buy music.

I do like to look good for me. I hate to look in the mirror because I hate to see myself 'grrr grrr'. The mirrors are to motivate? I dunno.

How sad that feel the need to laugh snarkily at what others obviously enjoy. Tres un-Swank IMHO. But, whatever floats your boat. :(

Eh, I laugh snarkily at people obviously overdressed for the occasion, even if it's merely a matter of my own opinion.


Before Tokyo Disneyland was built, I poked plenty of fun at the hoards of Japanese businessman who would descend upon Anaheim's Magic Kingdom at the height of summer in black business suits.






(then again, if I'm immature now, imagine how green I was in the prehistoric days before Tokyo Disneyland was built)

Yeah, and no one's perfect, but the difference with you, ISM, is that you can laugh at yourself and do so while laughing at others. But, like I said, everyone's a different comfort levels with themselves. We're old, aren't we? Old and immature. :evil:

AllyOops! 03-22-2006 03:56 PM

Wow! According to this Thread, I'm fashion's most tasteless overspending tacky ass! (Can I change my screenname to that, please? :p )

I'm only teasing, of course. :D I make no apologies for the things that I enjoy or choose to wear. It might set me apart, but for those who know me, fashion is my passion and I express most of who I am, or rather my individuality, through what I choose to wear. Often, I'm in jeans when I see most of you because I'm at Disneyland, but boy oh boy, I love to shop, and not so practically either. Pastel yellow tutu miniskirt, anyone? Carrie Bradshaw, I love thee.

I have a pair of lavender Versace pumps that nobody likes but me. I've been teased. A Dolce & Gabbana blue metallic lurex tee with red trim sleeves adorned with tiny silver sequins. Circus showgirl? You bet. But me all the way. I like what I like and in true Popeye philosophy, I y'ams what I y'am.

I have shopped at Fred Seagal & purchased Peanuts & Disney Couture. I have purchased it at Downtown Disney as well. I would spend $125.00 on a "bedazzled" tee if I really liked it, because golly, I LIKE IT. And please don't misunderstand me- I'm NO uppity snob. I just enjoy that kinda stuff. Some people justify travel or technology and I say, go for it! My weakness is shoes and outfits. If most of you combed my closet I think you'd hiss at me. :(

However, I DO agree that I kind of don't get the Donald tee's message.

But, that's okay. I'm only teasing here and laughing as I post because I'm so used to being on the outside of this issue. And, I take it as the highest compliment you think of me when you see the bedazzler! :) Thank God it's not the flo-bee. :p

Not Afraid 03-22-2006 03:59 PM

Oh, but Ally, I DO think of you when I see a flo-bee!



And, I have bad taste too. I think we need to support our own support group. ;)

I'm sure people go straight from work, but at that hour most peoples make-up doesn't look freshly applied. I should have added that I go first thing in the morning.

I had a friend who would take a shower, do her hair and full make-up before going to the gym. I never understood why.

Regardless I don't spend more than a passing glance looking at the people around me in my quest to see what machines are open and where I want to go. To notice what someone is wearing it has to catch my eye and dispite my very short attention span something has to stick out to make me do a double take.

In the grand scheme of things it's nothing more than a moment of internal laughter [at people who are overdressed for the occassion (thanks for the verbage iSm)]

Who said I was laughing snarkily? I find it funny that people get all dolled up to go to the gym. I can find it funny. I'm sure people find fault with and laugh at much of my clothing and fashion choices. ;) Is that sad or un-swank? Or just a matter of personal opnion.

I have to agree. While I might see someone that might make me laugh on the inside, it is just a fleeting moment followed by the 'whatever floats their boat' thought.

I can't help myself. Like iSm said, immature? Maybe. But some things just tickle me. Like the priest wearing white sneaker type shoes. I almost fell off the pew.

But, things that are beautiful, like the clouds at the end of the day, colorful from the sunset. That I can't take my eyes off of.

:D I am laughing so hard at this. Glad that you got it. ;)


And, in thinking more, if I were to workout with people I know, I MIGHT use a powder and eye liner, to give me a finished look. We normally hit up Starbucks after and hello I don't want to be seen there too crappy. I go there a lot. :blush: But, my clothes would still be no name and worn in.

I laugh snarkily at just about everyone, including myself, for just about any reason. The fact that I'm an immature poo-poo head also makes me laugh.

My dad's wife used to clean her house the day before the weekly maid service was scheduled to, uh, come clean her house.

You, too?! I never take myself too seriously. Or try not to.

But, I consider myself a 'knucklehead' and little kids are 'squirrely'.
