I keep staring at that knit dress and I can hear my mother commenting about how the hell can she wear that in public? Any slip underneath is going to show, and everything else will be visible if she doesn’t.
Perversely, this makes me want to wear it around my mother.
Actually, Georg, my one comment was that I would love to have that dress (if I had that shape of body, of course). But I did think about it needing a very well-chosen slip to go underneath!
I’d be curious to meet the photographer/special effects person who thought that picture was a good idea and ask them “What the hell were you thinking, and have you been through rehab yet?”
If I had to model that sweater with a flock of seagulls on it, my first instinct would be to run, and run so far away. Sorry, I couldn’t resist! I loved that goofy band back in the early 1980s.
Every time I think Mary and Kimberly have surely exhausted the entire archive of catalogs and patterns just asking for snarkiness, they come up with one that’s unbelievable. So come on, you two, amaze us again.
While we’re waiting, check out Burda pattern 2425. It’s a child’s chicken costume. The picture’s really freaking me out. http://preview.tinyurl.com/2smoou

I’d wear a flesh-toned slip under that dress. Or a bodysuit.
Is the girl in the first photo trying to communicate telepathically with Tippi Hedren?
Do you all realise you are sublimating the Unspeakable Legless Poncho Horror? Let me be the first to say it, “AAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH!”
Melissa is right. Just couldn’t deal with the horror of those happy heads who are missing the most of their parts. Why do they look so happy?
I’m also mourning the loss of Sophia Loren’s maltese puppies who died for that sweater.
*wimper* hold me.
HAH! thats great
So can you throw them like a boomerang? Throw them at your enemies! *whickawhickawhicka* *scream!* *thud!*
The girl on the right in the very first photo looks like Tom Hanks’s wife.

Those ponchos– it appears Phil Donahue finally got sick of wife Marlo Thomas and bisected her.
Anyone else remember the winged shrieking Furies from Greek Tradgedy 101?
Its like some sort of demonicly knitted tri-force.
I didn’t know grandma’s aghan came apart! Why is it coming apart?! It’s going to eat me isn’t it. . .

I am sure I once saw a movie where the flying poncho trio fought Godzilla.
Shoulda called Mothra, who could eat holes in the ponchos.
Those poor women are being consumed by giant liver flukes! But why do they seem to be enjoying it?
Holy God, the Twirling Troika of Terror has emerged again from the depths of Hell! I’m so scared! Run children, run!
People, people…there hasn’t been a post since May 5. Can we move on?
Just found your blog. Hysterical!
Uh – could we move on?
Kimberly and Mary:
Are you guys OK? Your not dead are you?
We miss you.
I will admit, I’m beginning to loathe the flying ponchos.

Y-A-W-N
Helllooooo???
You don’t think the ponchos ate them?????

Maybe amputees need bad fashion too….
OMG! If the ponchos aren’t going to give me nightmares, the chicken costumes surely will!!
