Stop him! He’s costing me a fortune!

Photo

Blog Guy, I need your opinion on a pop culture phenomenon.

Have you seen this video on YouTube showing a guy in a financial office looking at racy photos on his computer, not knowing he’s  live on television? It’s been seen by thousands of people now, and has a five-star rating

Yeah, big deal. You can barely see that poor itty-bitty dude back there behind this talking head.

If you really squint it does look like he may be checking out a Victoria’s Secret model who might be nude, but I mean, who hasn’t been there?

It’s alllllllll good.

Once upon a time, in a blog like this…

Photo

Blog Guy, it’s me. Goldilocks. All grown up. Out here on the slag pile where fairytale characters go when they’ve outlived their usefulness. Wrung out, discarded like old porridge…

Yeah, I get it. What are you doing in this sleazy dive? What happened to the three bears?

You can’t tell? They’re still with me. They’ll never leave. Baby Bear is now a grown-up chain-smoker with a gambling problem. All of us, wrung out, discarded, like…

COMMENT

ha ha ha… no… now that I am strong enough after all that force feeding of nutrients and vitamins and god knows what all good-for-you stuff, I am left to my own devices to eat junk! Yahooo!! Freeedom!!

Does this make me look super, or just fat?

Photo

Good morning, It’s my first time here in your shop. I’m a super-heroine, and I need an outfit.

Well, welcome to Super-Chicks R Us. What’s your chick’s shtick?

I’m flexible. I was  hoping you could help me choose.

COMMENT

Shra, thanks a lot, but I’ve had “My Heart Can’t Tell You No” in my head since yesterday morning!

E, so that’s how they make them? I AM positively thrilled to find out! I think I’ll dash out to get a couple of those for my daughter, just to support the inter-cultural exchange.

Her Majesty, the Queen of the World…

Photo

Blog guy, please settle an argument I’m having with my friend.

Is there such a thing as the Queen of the World? My friend says yes, but I say no.

Of course there is. No offense, but you’re obviously a cheese-eating bonehead.

Here is a photo of Her Highness out walking among the commoners.

COMMENT

I made a comment about how those were my three favorite “B”s but it did not seem to make it on here so I will try again…

Wow Shra, coincedently those are my three favorite “B”s! :)

I see you’ve been shopping in Paris, Lamar…

Dear Mr. Basler:

It’s me again, the actual attorney representing some men’s fashion designers. You will recall that my clients are outraged at the biased way you cover their industry, always making it appear their creations are not something regular guys would wear.

Yeah, I remember you. Last week you demanded that I run the last three men’s fashion pictures from our photo wire, which I did, and they were beyond hideous. What’s eating you now?

COMMENT

So, CrowGirl, you’d prefer you kinky naked guys to look the colour of the guys on the top? I guess there’s no limit to what a good make up artist can do these days!

Mabel, Mabel, strong and able, your new skirt’s a coffee table!

Photo

Blog Guy, I  need some advice on personal finances.

Like many people these days, money is tight.

I need new furniture for my apartment, but being a young single chick, I also like to dress well and keep up with the latest fashions. I can’t have both, so which way should I go?

You CAN have both, honey! A growing number of fashion houses are branching out into home furnishings, so you can enjoy your living room at home, and wear it when you go out.

COMMENT

I went to Cabo a few years ago. I didn’t see my furniture anywhere.

And yes’m, I have a welcome mat. Which is nailed down, due to tornados and welcome mat thieves. Same as coffee table thieves, almost, only too scared to enter my house which is protected by a sawwed off 12 gauge shotgun.

Which didn’t stop the coffee table pilfering. :’(

Revenge of the designers from Hell

Photo

Dear Mr. Basler,

I am an actual attorney representing several men’s fashion designers.

My clients are very offended by your frequent blog posts implying that the creative designs presented at major fashion shows are somehow goofy or stupid or psychotic.

COMMENT

Fashion models add insult to injury…

Photo

Lonnie, we have to talk. People have been losing interest in our runway shows lately, and I think I know why. Do you know why people come to fashion shows?

Sure, Boss. To see the hot new clothes for the next season?

No! They come to be insulted. They want us to treat them like utter crap, so they can leave feeling totally degraded, and we haven’t been giving them enough of that.

COMMENT

No hating allowed.

Hats! They’re back, and they’re real stupid!

Photo

Hey Blog Guy, I need fashion advice. I’m a regular-looking dude, and I’d like to find a way to make myself look more dopey. You know, so nobody will take me seriously.

Hmmm. Let me get this straight. You want people to take one look at you and say, “Holy crap, what’s wrong with that pathetic doofus?”
