You know those little, disposable nylons they have for women who want to try on shoes? Do men who wear shoes without socks use those when buying shoes? Nope, huh?

Think about it some more. Grossed out yet?

Frankly that’s a look I’ve never understood. “Look at me! My shoes squeak and make wet farty noises when I walk. Aren’t I cool?“

What’s worse, regular shoes without socks, or sandals with socks?

More MySpace “friend” nonsense.

This afternoon, the following subject line graced my email summary:

MySpace Friend Request Trista would like to be added as one of your friends!

Hi Gene,

Trista would like to be added to your MySpace friends list.

Et cetera.

So, I logged into my MySpace account to check this “Trista” out. The control panel blinked happily “New Friend Request!” I clicked on it. The friend request page was blank. Nothing. “No friend requests pending.”

Huh. Now what was that about?

MySpace sends out an email when someone supposedly wants to be your friend, but nothing if they take it back. I think they should send a second email in such cases, something like:

MySpace Friend Request The biatch changed her mind

Hi Gene,

Um, forget we said anything.

AP — Columbus, Ohio

In a shocking turn of events sure to once again churn an already tumultuous presidential race, leading Democratic candidate Barack Obama has accused rival Hillary Clinton of slandering his racial heritage. Obama claims the Clinton camp is behind the release of a photo secretly taken at a recent Obama family reunion. The photo portrays Senator Obama surrounded by family members.

 

 

“This is fear mongering of the worst sort,” said the clearly outraged junior senator. “To make an issue of a man’s race in this day and age is an outrage of the worst kind and should be dealt with in the harshest possible way. I trust the good people of Ohio and all of America to see through Senator Clinton’s desperate tactics and do the right thing come next Tuesday by voting for real change instead of politics as usual.”

Personally, I am shocked, shocked by this whole thing! How dare Obama slander the good name of Clinton by himself leaking this obviously staged photo so he could turn around and claim Hillary is evil. What an obvious and — yes! — desperate ploy! Dirty tricks at their worst. This just proves how much of a same-old-same-old political operator Mr. Change really is.

Pffft.
