$102

The issue is not the size of the suit, it is your shopping forum (Neiman's).

$168

I haven't rubbed one out to Vogue since I was in elementary school, and you're telling me you do it at 26-32?

Its all slly when you consider the internet.

Its all about the "found porn" factor. If you find a nude shot in Elle, its a discovery. Besides, if the celebrity in the current month's Playboy is lame, there's really not much to look at. The models in that mag are so airbrushed. I actually read the damn thing for articles. Maxim? If you can jack off to Paris or Carmen, you need to get out more, or get a stronger modem...

But Coltrane's survey (which I don't buy for a second since Rodeo drive is nowhere near SF) says that the shopping here is the best, so am I not required to shop at Neimans? If I shop at Target doesn't that lower the survey results?

TOP CITIES FOR HONEYMOONS
WORST: Houston

TOP CITIES FOR PEOPLE-WATCHING
WORST: Houston

TOP CITIES FOR PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION
WORST: Houston

TOP CITIES TO VISIT IN SPRING
WORST: Houston

Houston is worst in four categories.

HONEYMOONS - Agreed.

PEOPLE-WATCHING - What, this means we're normal? That can't be right - or are we so fat no one wants to look?

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION - Don't need it. Have Toyota, will travel.

CITIES TO VISIT IN SPRING - Better the Spring than the Summer! And Spring, for the record, started about two months ago.

go ahead and admit to Atticus and the world that the photos that turn you on are ones like this one from Vogue:

You really know how to make one break into a sweat.

Let's find the flaws . . .

(1) Target in SF must have better shopping than Target in other places, because apparently Neiman's in SF beats out Neiman's in Dallas (and that's the mother ship!!) and Houston and Chicago etc.

(2) The point was that the expense of the suit is not determined by the size, but by the store.

(3) Perhaps SF distinguished itself with non-chain stores? Just an idea. If you wish to keep the survey results high, you may want to seek out some non-chain stores and give them your business.

I think you are deliberately being stupid to induce impatience in me, you little troll. I'm ashamed to say it's working.

I actually do self-edit what a say here a little bit now that I actualy know some posters IRL. Only a little bit though because all the posters I know are pervs too. Oh, and crazy.

I am not crazy.
