Ive seen the movie and know you, so you will never catch me wearing white after labor day, or forgetting to rewind a tape, or no recycling. I want to live damn it!
But Miss Moorecock is not wrong. Just let someone liter and get caught be you.... or mistreat a animal.
I will take the risk of getting punched in the face and wear my white, cheap sneakers any time I want! I'm a rebel, dammit, and I'll never, ever be any good! I will, however, draw the line at crocs. A girl has got to have some standards. I survived my mother, Mads darlin', I can survive your nasty side.
Why the heck not? They're shoes aren't they? They're white aren't they? It's after Labor Day isn't it? I'm manic now, aren't I? That last one's rhetorical. I want to lay with the Not a Mannequin floating on that ginormous condom! Nice banner thingy.
Labor Day here is 1 May. New rules!!! (Also when we moved to Southern California 347 years ago, locals thought it was hilarious when we told them that rule.) Do you drink gin and tonic after Labor Day?
Adore this movie because of the opening driving sequence where psychotic Kathleen Turner is having a lovely day listening to Barry Manilow. Don't own Crocs. Don't own white shoes. John Waters is amazing... and I miss him. Wish he still had it in him. He lost his way. Right after Hairspray (the original, not the blechy musical). Success spoiled Rock Hunter, alrighty. Kizzes.
Love that movie! The part of Beverly was done so well.
And the to wear or not to wear white. People will claim it was made up by snobs but there’s a very practical reason for this fashion advice which made more sense to the average person years ago. Since the Fall usually brings rains and cold, that means mud which would sully the clothes easier. Now that isn’t as big of a problem in Summer because it’s a more causal, less serious time. Fall is when the vacations are over, the kids go back to school and parents are back at work full time. So this rule also signals a change in attitude and purpose. Also whites typically just look best in the sun and not in grey skies. Now if you live in a year-around warm sunny climate that’s a different story.
i forever think of you when i see Beverly Sutphin and Serial Mom.
ReplyDeleteyou'll catch me doing neither.

Mis treat a animal and no jokes, I might for real go Beverly Sutphin on their ass.
DeleteI don’t know why I’m crying laughing at this 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
ReplyDeleteIm learning I lot about you this week for a new reader, that's for sure. Excuse me while I go hid my white shoes.
Goddess forbid you wear white ...... crocs.
ReplyDeleteNo, for Crocs you pull out the .44 Magnum.

ReplyDeleteYou won't get injured, I don't think sneakers count dear. Most like my nasty side btw, lol!

DeleteCrocs are far worse!
ReplyDeleteHow about red sneakers? Or blue or flowery ones? I do colour code them to what I'm wearing!
ReplyDeleteI do the same thing!
DeletePoor Patty Hearst... Jx
ReplyDeleteLabor Day here is 1 May. New rules!!! (Also when we moved to Southern California 347 years ago, locals thought it was hilarious when we told them that rule.) Do you drink gin and tonic after Labor Day?
ReplyDeleteOh dear yes, Gin and Tonic is my year round drink Mitchell. I travel with multiple IV bags.
DeleteOh no! But that’s not allowed either in the Northeast after Labor Day. You need to move to Southern Spain, where it’s a year-round after-dinner drink.
DeleteI don't own a pair of white shoes. What about the fluorescent green one's I wore to New York a couple of weeks ago?
ReplyDeleteOh shit.
ReplyDeleteToday I'm wearing white shoes. Does that make me a bad boy?
XOXO
Could you please report to my office dear...and shut the door......

ReplyDeleteI just LOVE me some Kathleen Turner. No white shoes, no crocs in my closet. .... whew!
ReplyDeleteFunny clip, and I love the new banner.
ReplyDeleteIf ever there was a Beverly Sulphin of your neighborrhood........
ReplyDeleteLove that movie! The part of Beverly was done so well.

White? I thought that was you with Crocs. I can see the scenario now
