    The "Annoying Phrase" Thread

    So confusing even he couldn't handle it. ;) And if the whole idea was for people to stop referring to him as Prince, it was less than successful. He was still Prince, but with a pesky string of words attached.

    What are you listening to?

    One more, and Tom's wearing a hat, so I suppose he fits here (though his hat doesn't fit so well). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgaDhMg62jI Old Dogs, Children, and Watermelon Wine

    The "Annoying Phrase" Thread

    Because 'you' don't agree with a particular viewpoint, what right do you have to demand the whole world change to suit you? We are all free (at least in the US, and at least in theory) to think and believe as we choose. Let others do the same thing. And as for teeth-grindingly annoying...

    Exactly. What you said. ;)

    What are you listening to?

    Sap alert: I'm fb chatting with my mister, who is home while I'm away. He's got the classic music channels on tv, and just threw out a song title saying, "this one reminds me of your childhood" (I had a US childhood, while he had a UK one). So I had to mute my golden age online radio to find...

    The "Annoying Phrase" Thread

    BC vs. BCE - what exactly defines the Current Era? Wait, you mean it's the same thing? [huh]

    The "Annoying Phrase" Thread

    Yep. Changing the words doesn't change the meaning for those to whom such things have meaning. Keeping the original, authentic words doesn't force belief upon anyone who doesn't believe. I hate word games. (Except for the NYT crossword, which I don't hate. Except on Saturdays and...

    What's on Top - Bras, panties, garter belts, slips, & stockings

    As a somewhat short-waisted woman, I hear you about that boning thing. I've got a pair of longline bras, and they're divine as shape wear, and for halter dresses and such, but at the end of a long day - ouch.

    What are you listening to?

    Yes, and sung in that charming, Pepe LePew accent! :) I found and posted the version by Charles Buddy Rogers from "Paramount on Parade", but without that Frenchiness, it's just not the same. (Fortunately, it's correct in my head. ;) )

    Can the Snood Save Christmas?

    Hair and clothing styles are amazingly powerful; sometimes, when looking at photos from the 70s, I'm almost convinced there was a separate gene pool for that decade!

    What are you listening to?

    Sitting alone in my lodge-inspired room at an art retreat, with Pandora keeping me company. I just heard Maurice Chevalier's "Sweeping the Clouds Away", which I adore, and I really wanted to share it with my fb pals tonight. Sadly, it's nowhere to be found on YouTube. :(

    Can the Snood Save Christmas?

    Well of course, Hamilton, because we all leave our scarves on when we get hot. :rolleyes:

    What is your favorite retro look on a handsome man?

    When you said "Aw, shucks", did you jam your hands into your pockets, look down, and drag the toe of your shoe in the dust, circle-like? An "aw, shucks" don't mean nothing without the appropriate body language. ;) You're right though; I've given up making any comments about a man being...

    Today I am a "Ma'am"

    I suppose a generic woman is a 'ma'am', while a woman of rank is a 'sir'? It gets complicated, doesn't it?

    What Did You Drink Last Night?

    Stone's ginger wine - ugh. No, I didn't drink it last night (thank God!), but a couple years ago I picked up at bottle at the local shop, full of anticipation as I adore ginger, and can't get enough of it. The Stone's though, was horrible, thick, sweet, syrupy. Is it really a mixer mislabeled...

    Today I am a "Ma'am"

    Other than saying 'hey lady', anyone addressing a woman in today's society risks saying something offensive, and being accused of making presumptions. Miss = young and/or unmarried. Mrs. = married. Ms. = none of your business, but still seems more a term to be filled in on questionnaires...

    The ones that got away

    This jacket went a bit too high for me at the end. Too bad. I really was charmed by the high collar and the gathered back. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360205256296
