Please tell me you were under the influence when you said that?  Boxed wine, the kool-aide of wines.

There may have been Franzia involved, for shame. :lol:

How about everyone of any gender behave professionally at work?

You're not being punished for Me Too unless you behave badly, it's really not that hard

Are you suggesting it's someone else's fault that you got into that situation? Even in overly simplified scenarios, we  should apply logic equitably. You have no problem blaming poor people for the ac

My time over there was after this was on, but I am very aware of Emily Howard after having to listen to my friends quote this show again and again and again ("I am the only gay in the village" "Do I look bovvered" "Computer says no" etc. -- my ex even had an ex named Myfanwy, which was also apparently funny in some way that went over my head).

 

But last time I checked the parts matched the lady designation. :P 

 

Edit -- apparently it WAS on when I was over there, I was just oblivious!!!

And to be clear... wedges aren't really heels.  Nor is anything lower than 4".

No need to mansplain heels to me. 😊 4 inch heels really aren't appropriate for the kind of stuff we were up to on Saturday night. It was a pair of Tory Burch slides.

As I said, slides are NOT heels.  Not even close.  Perhaps some mansplaining is in order.

 

Never heard of Tory Burch.  If you're paying over $200 for those things, then you definitely need some mansplaining.  OTOH, if you're buying them at Goodwill for $5 just to keep up appearances, good for you!

I need to correct myself. They weren't my Tory Burch slides, they were my Alice + Olivia slides. (Sorry for the huge pic, I can't find a smaller one.)

They were on sale (down from $350), so it counts. You'll be glad to know I paid for them from my wages, NOT from my alimony. I may even wear them tonight while I watch GLOW on Netflix. :P Also, if you've never heard of Tory Burch, you definitely don't get to lecture me on women's shoes and accessories! :D

If my wife spent $35 on those I would be appalled. $350 for braided hemp sandals insult my pedestrian mid-west values ... but fashion is not my forte 

 

I thought Tony Burch followed Margaret Thatcher as PM
