Hanukkah isn’t over yet and I figured since I did a holiday post for the goyim, the Jews should get one too. Thanks to La Belette Rouge for pointing out this parody of Light My Candles from Rent. When I watch one of these things, I’m never sure which makes me laugh harder — the…
Special Occasions
Happy Holiday, Goyim!
Every December 25, I get into the holiday spirit by reminiscing about an idiot I knew in my freshman year of college. This self-described born-again Christian once went into a rant about the secularization of Christmas as symbolized by the use of “Xmas.” She thought that evil secular people had X’d the “Christ” out of…
Donald Brooks Dress Debut
Earlier this month, I mentioned that I got this vintage Donald Brooks dress on eBay. The dress in its original form. Photos by eBay seller. After having the wonderful Jean of Ghost Tailor make some serious alterations, I wore it to my birthday dinner with MrB last night. In this picture, I’m wearing the dress…
Hey, Hey Charla
I’d like to dedicate this craptacular photo of myself — inching into my 41st year in a too-short skirt and red lipstick — to my pink-lipglossed nemesis, How Not to Look Old author Charla Krupp. I’m wearing a vintage Christian Francis Roth jacket for my 41st birthday, which is today.Yeah, I’m old, sluts!Deal with it….
I Don’t Want Your Charity
I’m putting my foot down. I’m tired of people giving to a charity in someone else’s name in lieu of a holiday gift. It’s so damn smug, like we benighted souls would never think of giving if these saints didn’t light the way with their powerful sunbeams of goodness. Naturally, these gifts are never to…
Ready, Set, Shop!
It’s the official start of the holiday shopping season, which means you should be thinking of holiday cards. I wanted to support a small business, so I ordered these beautiful and nondenominational Red Blossom cards from Nouveau Designs on Etsy earlier this month. Noveau Designs did a custom order for me in a larger-than-normal quantity,…
Vegetarians Are Cruel
People get all protective of baby seals and KFC’s chickens, but does anyone ever spare a thought for the poor tofurkey? No! Brace yourselves for a sickening sight. This is an actual tofurkey pleading for its life. Seconds after this photo was taken, the innocent tofurkey was slain and eaten by a vegetarian. Illustration by…
Giving Thanks
In honor of Thanksgiving, gorgeous blogger Miss Janey asked me to tell my readers what things I’m grateful for. I could be really sincere and mention family, friends, health, a roof over my head, food to eat, and so on. But then I would have to slap myself for being annoying and obvious. So here…
Happy Very Belated Birthday to Me
When I turned 40 last December, my gorgeous mother, BarbaraB, told me she wanted to take me shopping for a special birthday present. I couldn’t take the pressure of picking out my own gift for such a momentous occasion. I felt it had to be something amazing that I would never buy for myself. Tricky!…
