"Hey, Hey, Hey, What's so Wrong..."

Tuesday's New York Times science section had an article this week on old people getting plastic surgery. That, coupled with my post from Tuesday, has led me to a rather icky discovery of something I did admittedly kind of already know. Which is that we kind of have this ideal, in America -- I don't know how it is in other cultures, having dog- ( Read more... )

I love your entries.

Also, I share your bra-size-rarity hate. I am a 34DD. :( No one EVER has my size.

^__^!

Oh, man, I bet. I mean, at least the advantage of being a B is that I don't have to deal with the problems that come from being at one end or the other of the spectrum.

I know a few people who would benefit from recognizing that everyone needs respect by virtue of being human. And that include people who are older AND younger than you. Thank you for getting it.

I'm technically a 32(ish) not-quite-A. So I can wear the smallest size padded VS bra with comfortable straps, but I can also stick a pair of socks in the cup. The non-padded ones that come in a double-pack at Costco fit me in the cup, but all the straps are almost too small. Darn my boy-chest!

Wow, apparently I need to go check out the steampunkery at my Michael's...I snagged some paper pads from the Joann's that I figured I would just cover my walls with (because I have tonnes of paper but never get around to using it). I really need to get real gears though, so I can make proper jewelry.

Frankly, I think bras are like jeans, in that the attitude seems to be largely "one body type fits all", and the truth is... yeah. No.

You should! They have so much crazy stuff. Actually, they were having a sale in jewellery making stuff at mine, so I checked out that, too, and the selection is pretty good there, too, from a steampunkery standpoint. You can really tell that the interest in steampunk has hit mainstream consciousness now, it's definitely being catered to. Which is awesome, for folks who have an interest! It's not really my thing, but I like to look at the trends, so I try to pat attention.
