When I was young I was picked on quite a bit. The usual set of circumstances, I was an easy target (smart, quiet, odd, insecure) and once the kids found my buttons they didn’t relent. For a long time I tried to ignore them. I spent a lot of time reading because I thought that with a book in front of my face I would blend into the background. And, for a while I did. From behind those first books I developed my love of the written word. Beginning with the marvels I found in the library and then later the stories I found in my own head. My need to escape elementary school torment helped foster my imagination, I suppose. I need to thank those kids for that.
So anyway, a few times the kids pretended that they wanted to be my friend. A kid would ask if I wanted to hang out on the playground either at recess or after school. The first couple of times I bought it. It was a pathetic display of desperation that, looking back now, makes me laugh. You can see that kid, right?...very awkward, over-filled book bag, disheveled clothes, greasy hair, hopeful smile. I would wait for my friend to show up and of course they wouldn’t and I would eventually trudge home. Sometimes they would gather somewhere along my route and give me a hard time shouting “Who were you waiting for back there?” and “Did you really think we’d be friends with you.” It was worse when they would wait until the next day bringing my humiliation to school to share with the rest of the class.
Why am I telling you this? Well…insight I suppose and also to offer some context that you may draw from for those times when I seem a bit vague (yes, really). I have had to overcome and still battle with some pretty substantial trust issues. Always present in the back of my mind is the voice telling me to watch out for anyone who gets too close because they probably have an ulterior motive that will leave me in a rut. It has taken me a long time and years of therapy to be able to ignore that voice and share even my more simple weaknesses with friends (without the guise of fiction). And, so I share this piece of myself, my past with you.
p.s. I am not sure what you will glean from my palate but my gut holds plenty.
(Not at present: soon and I'll let you know when.)

«Oldest ‹Older 1201 – 1400 of 4973 Newer› Newest»11:05, that is not fair to the person and group of people they DO blame.
Then I'm sorry to the person they DO blame but that's not my fault, it's the OPS for blaming others.
lookit, J has made it clear to everyone how desperately she wants to get in SS's pants. sure he is polite about it but it ain't ever gonna happen sweetie.
We all know that J. doesn't lie. She just sits back and accuses other people of lying.
Ooooohhhh zing!
I also see that you signing in is not going to happen. That's fine. You are the one who has to look in the mirror everyday. You do not know J. I DO! I know the person she is. I know the kind and loving person she is. You can say what ever you want, as you obviously do, but it doesn't make it so.
The only two things I will mention from your "comments" is that, to be fair I was the one who posted the birthday post on Mayos. J. had written it at our blog and I brought it over, thinking that people would see that it was meant in fun, and that was, let's see, back in October. Since then it has only been nameless people who have brought it back to Mayo's, as well as adding their own comments that were FAR worse, and even some of the things written at the SP blog. Which was created so that PEOPLE WHO DIDN"T WANT TO READ THAT DID WOULD NOT. As far as I see, no one forced anyone to go there, or comment, or bring it here. That, is the work of anons.
Second, I am also the one who posted the links to Anmesty International and ADA. I thought that would be fine here. I had been to another blog where the death penalty was being discussed and I thought I would just leave a link here to anyone who was interested. ADA is near and dear to me, for reasons I discussed earlier.
Now, I'm done with this. You are getting closer to your goal, so keep it up.
The rest of you, have a good day.
L.
Psst, psst! I just released the four first robins I got this year! I got them back in the beginning of June. The four of them took off flying strong and high and perfect!
This is also slightly less of a strain because I only have three robins left now, and two are really wonky, and I don't have to buy as many ridiculously expensive replacement worms as I have been buying.
Anyway, that's my Tuesday so far and now I still have more birds to clean and feed and then some shopping. Hope you're all having a fine day. :)
And, I want 1212!
Both Mayo and SS have mentioned they have a SO. Yet certain people still insist on flirting and fangirling.
It's wrong and it's tacky. I cringe every time I think what J wrote to SS that time. How did she think that was going to make him feel? Flattered? Turned on? Please. More like repulsed, cheapened and angry.
I personally apologize to K if she's going to get blamed for any of this. I am not Kapu.
neither am I
Seeing as how J never lies, I would be really interested to know what she thinks of Frank's wife.
I'm not sure I know how to reply to that or what the tactful protocol is, but thank you.
Good luck with your birds.
I'm guessing she isn't as much a fan of jamia as she is of jamia's husband, anon.
The OPS have a lot of nerve asking anons to pick a name, when they are allowed to talk about Mayo's secret that they know, and no one is allowed to ask them about that. And their Special Connection to SS which was on mcrumourcontrol, and no one is allowed to ask them about that.
there is no special connection with ss it is all in their minds.
he's not stupid and j makes it so obvious she just wants to fuck him.
good morning! it's been a busy lj kind of morning, but i wanted to stop in and pay my respects to blogbelieve before relinquishing the computer for the day. :)
also, i have pics to share. *hee*
here's the best of the lot from my ill-fated, tick-laden photo excursion the other day. it's the father oak in my folks' backyard.
to the left of the picture, you can see the edge of their woods, six tantalizing mysterious acres that you can't walk in because of ticks and snakes. there could be anything in there. personally, i think it's rife with fauns and fairies. :)
and last week, i went out one night with my hand-me-down camera to see what it was capable of at night (answer: not much), but i stumbled upon a weird effect as i was trying to take some shots of the moon.
freaky-deaky moon pic.
a second freak-deaky moon pic.
kinda cool, huh? the first one looks like a bean sprout, or, you know, a lunar sperm. :)
time for me to skedaddle, but one last thing: sdock, i'm sorry i disturbed your slumber! *oops*
have a good day, blogbelieve. try to be nice to each other.
mayo, you have a good day, too. don't let my moon photos scare ya. :)
bye!
oh hey! congrats on the birds, kapunua!
bye, again! :)
If SS didn't like the way J spoke to him, he would tell her to stop. They are friends. End of story.
Next you will be telling us that we are all just jealous of the special connection.
Lunar sperm. Well, there's another part of our anime. ^_^ Great pics, TJ!
Speaking of pics, before I go, there is one more thing. So the other night I was talking about my hentai art pal and I mentioned that Vampire Hunter D / hand drawing that she did back in the day. Her aim was to make us all go "OMGWTFDNW!" and "HOW CAN I DELETE SOMETHING FROM MY BRAIN?!"
Do not click this is you are under 18. This is NC-17. Hell, this is NC-sane. ;D
Vampire Hunter D / Hand, OMGWTFBBQ.
The irony is that it's actually a really beautifully drawn piece of work; which was always the irony when she would do something so "OMG!"
Anyway, we laughed about this for months, and the puns that followed were totally out of bounds. ;D
Mummy K if you happen to read this, please don't click on that. ;)
One more. Back in the beginning of our FF7 days, like I said, ChocoZel / Mel ruled the artistic fandom and she was a huge yaoi fan. I hadn't heard of yaoi or even hentai till I met her and after my initial "OMG!" reaction we became good friends and remain so to this day.
She used to tease me a lot, and once I would mention characters or scenes that I liked, she would dirty them up to watch me spaz.
But she would do beautiful drawings and it became a game between us.
One of my favorites has always been Reeve from FF7. And this was one of the best pieces of Reeve fanart ever.
It's not nc-17, it's more like R, whatwith Tseng climbing all over him like that, but I just vividly remember commending her for not being afraid to draw body hair on dudes instead of insisting everyone was a white, hairless little bishie.
Okay, that's plenty from me today, I think! I'd better get my dogs for their run and get out to the stores.
Thanks for bearing with me. ;D
You definately know some weird people K.
Jesus Christ...that bitch on The Young and The Restless must be 210 years old...I havent seen this shit in 20 years...she was old then and she's still there....damn!!!!
Is it wrong of me to think of that picture as hot?

I'm surprised you don't already know. Most people here know exactly what J thinks of Jamia.
Hey to anyone here. Sugarplum, I never got your email :(
You mean that Frank is too good for her and that she is the nasty one who seperated Frank and Gerard? Yeh mots people here do know that. She wasn't so shy about her opinions when the blog started.
Another red letter day,
So the pound has dropped and the children are creating,
The other half ran away,
Taking all the cash and leaving you with the lumber,
Got a pain in the chest,
Doctors on strike what you need is a rest
It's not easy love, but you've got friends you can trust,
Friends will be friends,
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention,
Friends will be friends,
When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends right till the end
Now it's a beautiful day,
The postman delivered a letter from your lover,
Only a phone call away,
You tried to track him down but somebody stole his number,
As a matter of fact,
You're getting used to life without him in your way
It's so easy now, cos you got friends you can trust,
Friends will be friends,
When you're in need of love they give you care and attention,
Friends will be friends,
When you're through with life and all hope is lost,
Hold out your hand cos friends will be friends (right till the end)
excuse me, i just farted.
yeah brain farts
i just cut the cheese.
She keeps Moet et Chandon
In her pretty cabinet
'Let them eat cake' she says
Just like Marie Antoinette
A built-in remedy
For Kruschev and Kennedy
At anytime an invitation
You can't decline
Caviar and cigarettes
Well versed in etiquette
Extraordinarily nice
She's a Killer Queen
Gunpowder, gelatine
Dynamite with a laser beam
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Anytime
Recommended at the price
Insatiable an appetite
Wanna try?
To avoid complications
She never kept the same address
In conversation
She spoke just like a baroness
Met a man from China
Went down to Geisha Minah
Then again incidentally
If you're that way inclined
Perfume came naturally from Paris
For cars she couldn't care less
Fastidious and precise
Drop of a hat she's as willing as
Playful as a pussy cat
Then momentarily out of action
Temporarily out of gas
To absolutely drive you wild, wild
She's all out to get you

I think I did it again
I made you believe we're more than just friends
Oh baby
It might seem like a crush
But it doesn't mean that I'm serious
'Cause to lose all my senses
That is just so typically me
Oh baby, baby
Oops!...I did it again
I played with your heart, got lost in the game
Oh baby, baby
Oops!...You think I'm in love
That I'm sent from above
I'm not that innocent
You see my problem is this
I'm dreaming away
Wishing that heroes, they truly exist
I cry, watching the days
Can't you see I'm a fool in so many ways
But to lose all my senses
That is just so typically me

I hope all the laughing being done here today is meant to be joyous laughing with somebody. Not laughing at the discomfort & humilationof somebody else.
I see kids still come out of hiding some where along the sidewalk leading home and bring it school the next day in an attempt to further humiliate and embarrass . Complete with ASSumptions, pointing fingers and pushing.
try to put something nice up and forget it
round and round they go where they'll stop nobody knows
but I hope they dizzy from it!
i tried to keep my gas in my ass, but i failed. sorry
you fail at many things
add it to the list darling
2:46
you don't have to be mean. at least i tried.
2:46
smells like a bag of farts.
2:43 admitted it
blame them where it belongs
i gotta go drop a deuce. i'm outta here.
2:43 is a slob
next time hold you ass cheeks together tightly
sewing it shut would be another way of remedying it
Not laughing at the discomfort & humilationof somebody else.
she SHOULD feel uncomfortable and humiliated. what she wrote about frank on his birthday was disgusting. she should be ashamed of herself, she is probably at least 15 years older than frank. that's old enough to be his mother.
insanity and chaos reign this week

who left the floater in Mayo's toilet?

July 29, 2008 2:54 PM
I f it was so disgusting why do you keep bring it up?
Anyway it is old and no one cares... not SS and not Frank.
Ss is the kind of person who would have nicely wrote a comment to her asking her to stop if he didn't like it.
Frank has said in interviews that he won't stop fans from being creative.
Now if you still have a problem her are two suggestion take it up with the ops themselves or go harass the people writing rape fanfic. Because that is the really disgusting stuff.
her=here
peeks in one mo time
more shit!
2:54 why do you care so much it appears as if you are more concerned for him than the person you are accusing
sounds as if YOU like him alot more
people can like who they want. if you dont like what they said (especially from like 6 mths or so ago) ignore it
it is obvious since you keep bringing the subject up YOU are the one with a problem
when you are saying these things you do appear as a bully whether you like it or not
what you wrote speaks for itself
"Not laughing at the discomfort & humilationof somebody else."

July 29, 2008 2:54 PM
you are trying to humiliate and make someone uncomfortable
go back and read what you said and you shall see
maybe back off a bit!
smacks mj on the butt
scary how great minds think alike
I agree 3:07
Seriously, first anon at 2:54, why don't you shut up already and take your complaining to someone who actually gives a damn?
*smiles* at BC
especially when they arent here to defend themselves
adios
i'm sure gerard would say the same thing to you bc
Shopping was mostly successful and I bought the gifts I needed to buy for Sije's 16th birthday party next Saturday. I had told her once before about The Pillow Book and that she reminded me of the young empress Teishi, even as I reminded myself sometimes of Sei Shonagon. She said she wanted to read the book, but she couldn't find it anywhere, so it is one of my gifts to her. This is the message I put in the card to go with it:
"This is the book I was telling you about, with the character who reminds me of you--although she is less a character than an historical figure: the Empress Teishi of Heian Japan. She was a young Empress, only in her teens, yet everyone in her court still aspired to her grace and wisdom.
The writer of The Pillow Book is Teishi's attendant Sei Shonagon: a worldly, sarcastic, somewhat snobby, somewhat selfish 30-something who still likes to tell jokes and chase boys, but nevertheless is a great writer and very much admired the younger empress. The two form a friendship in their social circle of the court, although it is usually Sei, who is supposed to be 'older and wiser,' who seems to learn from Teishi.
Interwoven in the true story are idle lists, observations, poetry, jokes, rants etc. It is sometimes hard to follow since the pages were discovered out of order, with no dates on them.
It was written just over a thousand years ago, and what is startling is how little has changed throughout the years and cultures. Many of the same societal norms still exist today, as well as the same frustrations, loves, arguments, observations--and of course, the same kinds of friendships.
Otanjo-bi omedetou and Arigatou!
Jules"
That seems pretty nice, right? :)
Aaaaand I bought some nice, 20lb, recycled paper for my manuscript. Why not start off conscientiously, after all? I feel awful that I wasted 399 pages on the first manuscript that I'm never even going to send out, because that, being useless, truly is not worth the paper it's printed on.
*sigh*
I try.
You life isn't worth the paper it's printed on
Kapunua,
May I ask your advice on something, please?

You life isn't worth the paper it's printed on
WTF does that even mean?
;) for 3:12
hello everybody
Oddly enough, my life isn't printed on paper. I think what you're looking for is "your life won't be worth the paper the contract taken out on it is printed on." I realize that's a mouthful, though.

Sure, Mya. If it's about your dog limping I would get that X rayed without any hesitation.
kapu you make me laugh :)
^_^ Silly anons who use, and especially misuse cliches make me laugh. :D
Whatever, shut the fuck up about your manuscript already. You are not as smart as you think you are
3:17,
Like I really care what he thinks. *rolls eyes*
Hey to everyone who arrived
Thanks, Kapunua.
I don't feel any breaks, anything swollen, or anything in her foot pads. I had hoped it would get better on it's own, but she is still not putting any weight on it. Still think I need to get it x-rayed?
She doesn't cry or whine about it either when I manipulate it.
I would for sure. I didn't feel anything on Trisky's leg and the douche who was my boss sent her home on buffered aspirin three times in three weeks, even after I told him I had a bad feeling and asked him to do x rays.
It is probably not cancer but could also be Lyme disease, which causes sudden limping with no other symptoms, and that is easy to treat.
Trisky was also very stoic and she never cried either when the douche would manipulate it; but that could also be the case with Lyme.
The other saying is that your life is not worth the paper yoru birth certificate is printed on.

Why don't you just stop reading her comments. Or even better walk away from the computer.
Take care 3:16 anon
Hi mj, how are you?
Thank you again, Kapunua. I really appreciate it.
3:29, how do you know exactly how smart I think I am? :)
No worries; I hope she does all right, Mya.
Hi, BC and Martha
bc that's my point. please try to keep up.
you said:

i'm sure the anon at 2:54 doesn't care what you think either *rolls eyes*
And thank you, MJ!
So! Here we are and this is it. Me with 500 sheets of recycled 20lb paper, and suddenly the utter lack of guts to begin printing. O_o
But I'm going to anyway.
Right

skip over what she writes if it bothers you
who cares
why do you want a confrontation?
why do you antagonize?
do you thrive and feed off of it because there isnt anything better to do?
get over it already
adults can ignore each other
child like mentalilties cannot
if you are a child go help your rents clean the house or make them dinner
if you are an adult start acting like one
damn do something useful instead of worrying what someone is or isnt doing!
OMG! 3:36, 1293!
I'm not doing it on purpose. It just keeps happening.
MJ, they're on summer vacation, they have nothing else better to do, apparently.
Hello anon, bc, kapu and mya.
I am alright, how are all of you?
I'm sure they don't 3:36, but thanks
I'm alright Mj, but uncomfortably hot. Be back in a few
never ASSume
remember that
I'm doing OK, Martha. Just at work, freezing in this office.
you said ASS! hehehehe
well bc is hot so mya maybe you should send her some cold air and she can send you some hot air.
It is Hot as Hades outside, but why does this building have to be 69 degrees?
*I said 69!*
bc is full of hot air.
And I suppose I am somewhat frigid...
pin drops
I said "frigid"!
And since that comment, I had to work on a document here at work that is number 69!
See how entertaining this is?
Not really
lol
No fair 3:51. I wasn't here for a few minutes, and already you were insulting me *pouts*
I think I'll take a smoke break.
See you guys later!
later mya.
bc I am going to take off for a nap
bc,
i'm sorry, Martha set that one up for me.

I was just curious if anyone had heard anything about the earthquake in LA?
Anyone?
I just saw it on Yahoo, and the headline said there were no injuries.
And apparently no damage either. O_o
I don't care about rumors or who is who -but I think we would ALL appreciate a check-in of certain parties.
That's all I will say.
Thank you Kapunua.
Hello Mayo,SS and Family!
I'm baaaackkkkk!
So,how've you guys been?
LOL, like Mayo making a post about feeling shaken? Nahh. ;) It's all good, the news reports just said that residents were like "OMGWTF" and then it was over. :)
Hi Bella! :D Good to see you!
I hope Gerard is OK.
I'm sure he is, 4:18; the reports said that there were no injuries. Of course this all depends on how many MSI records the quake sold. ;D
I thought you were giong to print your book
Hey Jules!
*HUG*
Thank you!
How are you?
Why, I am printing it at the moment, and it's very tedious. Pages flying every damn where.
Enjoy your nap mj. Bye Mya. Earthquake anon, no I haven't. Was it a small quake?
4:13, don't worry about it. I wasn't serious :)
I'm goooood! Just chilling! Well, not really chilling since it's so hot here and I have the AC off, but I'm drinking home made iced tea so that's pretty nice. :D
MSNBC said the earthquake was a 5.4with minor damage and no injuries reported so far.
Oh yeah,I know what you mean.It's very hot here too and I'm drinking iced coffee right now.
I'm glad to know you're doing okay,though! :)
Hi BC and anon(s)!
k,
how do you stand it with the AC off.

THAT was funny as hell! Thanks!
Hi bella, how are you? It's good to see you again *hugs*
These people I work with keep harrassing me with... WORK! So, I haven't taken my smoke break yet.
I'm slipping out now before anyone grabs me again!
Thank you BC!
*HUG BACK*
I'm good,actually.I had a lot of fun with my friends the past week.
AND...I finally went to the beach!
I love the sea...
How've you been?
Before I head out just to let you know the earthquake that hit in 89 was a 6.9.
So a 5.4 is a nice size one but shouldn't do to much damage. Just shake you up a bit. Personally I probably would have sleep through one size.
As long as GW had nothing that could fall on him in his house he should be okay.
LOL, I had to.
I'm usually okay with the AC off because I get cold really easily, but it is a scorcher today. I might pop it on for an hour or so. I don't like to put it on if I really don't need it.
I'm such a pill. ;) It's good I live alone.
Oooh, how nice, Bella. I love the sea, too.
Thank you MJ and 4:22.
Much obliged.
Poor mya. See you later maybe? That's good Bella. You sound more relaxed and refreshed. I'm okay, just waiting for some food to warm up. I'm staying in today, it's too hot, but I have plans to go swimming tomorrow, so its all good
You sound more relaxed and refreshed
I am.I really needed this.
I had a great time.
OK so I got really bored and I started reading K's live journal.
K, you really really loved your animal hospital job didn't you? I know it's been a while but I for one am really sorry you lost it because of this blog.
Sorry. I clicked on your 'work" tag and you seemed mostly happy. It's open to the public so..... hope you don't think that's weird. LIke I said I got bored.
No,t hat's all right. I locked most of the unhappy sounding ones, which were more and more prevalent in the last few months I was there. It's like this blog was the final straw. I'd felt (and been told by people outside of the situation) that they were looking for a way to fire me or at least to make me want to quit because of the amount of money I was making and they wanted all new people. I see it more in retrospect.
I should unlock those old locked posts where I was bitching about that place. ;)
Anyway thanks for being sorry. I'm not though; trust me. ^_^
Printing finished at 5:04!
hi guys. Hi mayo, SS, bella, kapunua, mya, BC, nice anons and anyone else i have missed in the length of time its taking me to text this fucker. This phone is so fucking frustrating!

Lying on the grass;
Breathing in and Breathing out.
Calm surrounds me;
The tension is finally soothing.
Heart beats right on time;
I can breath again.
Still Healing;
Patiently.

Me too, although when I'm not wearing one, I wear a rather large shirt to hide them ^_^
Mayo,
I've never had an anchovy.
But pistachios rock my world in a good way.
And then there's...
pistachio ice cream
pistachio puddin'
pistachio puddin pops??
Nah, but there should be.
Later!
Mwah! Mwah!
LA update:
LOS ANGELES - Scattered minor damage and a few minor injuries have been reported in the aftermath of an earthquake that was strongly felt across Southern California.
So, that's not as good as "no injuries" but minor isn't too worrying!
I am just SO GLAD that Lindsey's $1500 bag* is not damaged! Then she might have to buy a whole new one to put stuff in!
Man, if I made a million million dollars (or married into it,) I would totally spend some of my money frivolously for sure. I'd buy Final Fantasy VII statues for sure. And some broad swords, a bigger aviary and such. I am all for people spending their money however they want to, so long as n one and nothing is exploited or treated cruelly int he process.
But man. I just don't get the bag thing. What could possibly be the difference between a $12 bag from Target and a $1500 bag? YOU PUT STUFF IN IT. I just don't get the huge price difference, and I get even less why anyone would pay it.
Unless a bag magically handed me anything I wanted at every moment, including things I hadn't even put in the bag in the first place, there's just no way it could be worth any more than a few bucks to me.
But that's just my mana'o.
*This is a rumor; I don't know any such thing for sure but I thought it was funny as hell.
Wow, lookit me getting tangential.
I'm off to shower. Later guys!
Amy, that's awesome! Hi smokie
Hiya Smoke!
Just took a look at my bills, turns out I'm not as poor as I think! Yeah!
BC and Anon, I love my itty bitty... kitties. And while I do like to emphasize them, I get self-conscious about them pretty frequently too.

good morning
how is everyone?
so over my night ..
I see the dead horse has been dragged back for a flogging, I was wondering about the smell
lyrics anon, excuse me but I think your obsession is showing!
good songs though
TJ lunar sperm? awesome
gaseous anon, perhaps charcoal tablets might help you there, or cut down on the beans and fibre
heart anon ♥♥
K well done with the robins and good luck for the others
Mya check in between the paw pads too or get the vet to, best to get it seen to by a professional
fasc shame about the rain but make the best of it all!!
amy I think I saved my plants from frost
HI BC MJ bella
and all you hot people I'm FREEZING!!!!!
oh and hi smoke and mustard
Hello everyone and goodbye everyone!
Be back later!
Ergo, how about you come to Canada? It's warm today, so warm I couldn't be outside for long gardening. I think I sunburnt my head.

The $1500 bag is only worth that much because of the high-end designer label that's attached to it. If you think that's too much, They also have purses that cost about $10,000
Oh I'd much rather be there amy!
I'd send you a bag of cold air but my pigeon hasn't forgiven me for last time
Yes BC, everyone already knows that. I think K was making fun of the fact that people buy things for their labels.
Look at it this way. You spend nearly ten years doing it hard and the future doesn't look that hot.
Then you spot a desperate guy who easily gets blown away by you (no pun intended), who also happens to be someone in a prominent position in your industry. There's a summer romance, you both ride the crest of the wave which culminates in marriage. Do you think she would really pass this chance? I think most women would do the same thing.
And now she has what she always wanted without too much effort.
Hi Ergo, gah, I would love to trade places with you. It's not super bad outside, but we'll be in the 90's most of the week :/
I do hate sleeping at night when it gets too warm
Hello.
re the bags there is a point where they are much higher quality materials and workmanship, it would last a lot longer than a cheaper bag my good leather handbags cost a bit but last for years and years. But you can't tell me it's 10 times better as it's price would suggest, it's all marketing and name after that
They also have purses that cost about $10,000
The other thing to keep in mind is that the bag is only worth what the person will pay for it.
-A
but they are nice bags, if I had the money to "spare" I'd probably consider it, though maybe not one that expensive
Hallo Belle!
Ergo, I hear ya. My pigeon quit last week.
-A
amy that is the point, they charge that much because there are people that will pay it
if noone wanted them at that price they wouldn't be there
The bag is an image thing. When your peers are all wealthy and start wearing designer labels, you start doing the same.
I hope you all had a good day.
Even you Mayo!
Hmmm,will be back soon to lurk ;)
I paid $130 for a Roots Leather Handbag. It's gorgeous in my eyes, and I bought it with money that I got for my 21st birthday. I don't see it as a status symbol, because a lot of people don't like leather anyway, and I definitely didn't buy it because of the price.
I like the look of it, even though certain members of The Peanut Gallery call it my "Murse". :P
However, I'm more excited about the satin gold dress I just got for $15. Go figure.

Interviewer 'so what attracted you to the millionaire rock star Gerard Way?'
Lyn-Z 'um..like..his voice, he like sings superstar to me when I'm sad and, like, buys me designer purses and rents, like, chimps to cheer me up..and like he fixed it so my band would go on tour with him and get like media exposure and stuff to help boost record sales...'
A 5.4 is nothing. And wasn't there people living in LA before Gerard Way?
6:06
Well, my opinion is that they can buy whatever they want, but I do think $1500 is a lot for purse. That money could have been donated or given to someone who might actually need it.
6:08
I wouldn't do such a thing. If I was in that position, it would make me question that person's ulterior motives. Trust is a delicate issue.
