I knew somebody who wanted to get a little gold fork and wear it on a chain round his neck. I told him it was way too subtle.

I recently read that hanging is for criminals - firing squad is for soldiers. I think ol saddam got exactly the right one.

As I said over at Tim’s, couldn’t have happened to a more deserving thug.

I think they’re meant to be spoofs - this is the Bulwer-Lytton contest of porn. Though come to think of it there’s no reason they couldn’t be submitted to Bulwer-Lytton directly.

Avocado green was the very least of the atrocities. That gawdawful orange was worse. But the very worst, excluding of course, the gold lame* clothing which is in a class by itself, was the multi-colored-sorta-plaid-with-bell-bottoms pimp pants. They looked like a rainbow threw up.

*There should be an accent here someplace but I’m too lazy to look up how to do it and besides, I think “lame” seems appropriate.

God, those are terrible. You’d have to be drunk to like them.

Skubie, don’t forget the “platform” shoes. High heels for men! Whee! I’m 6′3″ and with them babies on, I was 6′6″ or more!

Those shag rugs were only good for about a year, then they really showed the traffic areas and started matting. Great for bare feet immediately after installation, not so much later.

Avocado green refrigerator. But it could have been worse.

Apparently it had been repainted; a ding on one corner exposed a layer underneath of fire-engine red.

Remember “the wethead is dead”? F’crissakes, I remember “a little dab’ll do ya”.

‘Tis true, though. Complain all you want about the 60s, the 70s were the very definition of “atrocious”.

They were at least highly absorbent.
