I hereby declare that I am officially discriminating against you for this collection of meaningless words that you apparently intended as a sentence.*

Hey! Lay off those who buy clothes at Target. I like their underwear. I'm wearing their Xhileration brand microfiber bikini (lime green) right now, and they're the only ones who carry the cami tops that I like. Everyone else puts a stupid shelf bra in cami tops. Shelf bras are thoroughly and completely inadequate to hold these puppies up, and shelf bras are stupid if you're wearing a regular bra. I probably wear cami tops purchased at Target three or four days a week under whatever other blouse I'm wearing.

And I love their jewelry section. I end up wearing great stuff that none of my friends have because it doesn't occur to them to troll Target for funky jewlery. I'd name drop the people who've complimented me on Target purchased jewelry, but that'd be gauche.

Were any of them investment bankers? Did they pull down serious bank? Because if not, then they're just proles like you and who cares what they think?

Well played, playah.

Anyhoo, harkening back to yesterday's convo....

Last night I am cruising home in my (still somewhat) new metallic blue whip, got the top down, bumpin' some Lloyd Banks....

I'm drivin through Pioneer Square (hi NFH!) and pull up to the light at the end of the block where Coyote Ugly/Cowgirls Inc. is (hi Slave!), that's when I saw a gaggle of 20 somethings (Lohan meet Duff meet Hilton types) on the corner giving me some hard looks. One comes over and tells me her pals were out for bachelorette gig, they were going to Cowgirls and that later that night they were going to hit the Vu, where the bachelorette was going to make her first and last amatuer pole dance debut. She tells me, be there or be square.

Then she gives me her card with her celly. Oddly, ironically, coincidentally, she is a paralegal.

Anyhoo, was the invite the product of:

-she was a non-brazillian hooker on the side;
-the whip;
-the soul patch; and/or
-the widows peak???

Regards,

P

1. No. He's doing a snakes on a plane bit. You didn't see it, as usual.

2. GWNC doesn't need my help, but what the fuck were you just talking about? All she said was she had a good life. She makes a lot of money (most likely in the top 2-3% in terms of income in the country, which makes her wealthy in mostly everyone's eyes -- and hell, maybe she comes from money as well. You have no idea).

The white thing is a simple fact. She is not saying minorities can't have a good life or make good money. She is saying that things are generally easier for her because she's white. And she was probably only half serious.

If you're looking for fights, I can respect that. But be honest about it.

Well, that and that's she's from Canada.

I'd say that she has a right to be smug and elitist about that, too. But I don't hate America, like most of the posters here, so I won't.

If you have to ask how to tell if someone's wealthy, you aren't. At least that's what my good friend, the ghost of J.P. Morgan told me the last time I dreamed I was having lunch with him at the Knickerbocker Club. As I recall, we had the squab.

By the by, I am wearing silk pajamas right now. From Intimo, or something like that, if that makes a difference to you. I only wear silk PJs around the house (I am working at home right now). It's a faux-homage to Hef.

Faux-homage to Hef, my ass. It's because you're gay-vague. But the vague is often silent.

Actually, Precious, she is wealthy. And if you're making what some associates are, that makes you wealthy too. Her income puts her in the top 3 or 4 percent of American households. That's right, Princess. Households. If you don't think she's wealthy, or you don't think between you and your husband you're wealthy, then I suggest you turn your Thomas Pink shirts and your Bergdorf bras and your fucking handbags over to the Salvation Army or some prgram set up to help homeless or poor people dress well enough to get a job paying $7 bucks an hour, shag your pampered little ass to Wal-Mart, and try survivng for 30 days on what most people in this country of ours make.

You want to go getting snide on anybody on this board because they don't make a few million a year? Fuck you. Get over yourself, your inane little shopping habit, your faked sense of superiority and stop feeling sorry for yourself because you weren't able to go to law school.

You work in a nice, clean office that's cool in the summer, warm in the winter, and let's you buy your clothes someplace other than Target. So you rub elbows with people who could buy and sell you all day long. Do you really think anybody here is impressed? We all spend a lot of time around people who are far wealthier than us. The rest of us just don't feel that we're entitled to claim some sort of special status based upon the reflected glory of their money.

You want people to lay off you. Fine. Learn to stand up on your own two legs. Make some jokes. Slam a few insults that don't involve your knowledge of what the rich folk do with their money. Learn to laugh at yourself. And most important, get it through your thick fucking skull, that WE DON'T CARE IF YOU're A PARALEGAL OR A LAWYER. The only asshole making a big deal of it is you.

My fucking God, girl. Lose the attitude and grow a fucking spine.

I guess that explains why you persist in making yourself such an easy one.

RT I love Target. Tarjay. I bought all my maternity stuff there Liz Lange and some Isaac Mizrahi.

Maternity is a section she wouldn't know. Did you really need to remind her that she's childless as she heads into another barren weekend?

:( :(
