You know what else is rude? Telling people how to rear their kids. Yeah, parents don't even like it when their relatives give "parenting" opinions, much less a stranger. So, let's stop the judgement and criticism here. We all have our rights to teach our kids however we deemed right, no matter how others feel about it.

Let's talk about fashion again.

I'm told that it is very fashionable for me to wear my pajamas well into the afternoon today. At least, it is what I choose to hear.

so, please do go ahead and assume sarcasm. Although I prefer "amusing bullshit with a hint of irony" (not of the alanis school)
That's weird, 'cuase when I read your original post the first thing I thought was, "Hey, isn't the 80s coming back into fashion just like when you meet the man of your dreams while you are accepting a delivery of ten thousand spoons from the Fork Emporium and the beautiful delivery girl turns out to be his wife? Or even sort like getting married on an overcast or drizzly day."

poor Alanis. Nobody to pull her aside before it was too late and tell her not to do it. Or maybe that was the good advice that she just didn't take.

What about people who say "I was being ironic." That doesn't seem right to me. You can say something ironic, but you're not actually ironic.

Though, I guess it's ok to say "I was being funny" even though, in most cases, that person was merely TRYING to be funny.

I was being ironical, I think is the right way to say it.

When my younger son was 5 I took him up to Maine. It was a looooooooooong drive from Ohio, as you can imagine. I was in a caravan of cars as my whole extended family was going in about four different cars.

I was driving thru NYC and my brother in law was riding shotgun.

Danny was sitting in the back, seatbelt secure, sunglasses on a button nose.

Out of nowhere he says, "I'm going to be sarcastic."

And then he never said another word till we got to Connecticut!

No merc. No. No. No.

And, NO.

Really, think of the children. No.

(In HS my friend's dad would wear shorts, tennis shoes and black socks, so we called him Daddy Black Socks. He didn't care.)








No.

I am currently the height of fashion. I am sporting the super-duper jedi bathrobe look.


[eta]seriously I have no business in a thread about fashion. I choose my look according to what fantasy hero I want to look like. I genuinely bought a hooded cape because it looked like it was from Thief, or Assassin's Creed.
