Let me clue you in on a specific type of person I live around who tries way too hard to be something they are most likely not. I was on my way home from the VA Hospital this afternoon, and I was close to the Mega-Campus that is UW, and as I was rounding the corner, a red little sportsy car cut me off. Now, generally I mentally flip people off...might not be good to actually do it, since my license plate is "1BADREV" So, I generally keep the finger down. But, as this car started to stop in front of me, I read the license plate, noted the make and model of the car, looked at the driver, and almost barfed. The car was a 2008 candy apple red Mercedes SLK280....it's a hardtop convertible, comfortably able to seat two skinny rich people. The woman driving it was probably in her mid-fifties, kinda chunky, but with bad hair. This hair was probably bought and paid for numerous times over because I doubt that she even knew what a curling iron is or does. She was wearing the expensive Gucci shades....how did I know this? Because of that ugly symbol on the bows of the sunglasses. But, that's not the worst part. The license plate on this "I need a boy-toy car" read "Prada." What kind of shallow, fake, pretentious person needs to advertise a brand that most of us cannot or choose to not afford in the first place? I mean, who in their right mind needs to tell the whole world about their love for some overpriced, ugly, and I do mean ugly, brand of crusty fashion accoutrements? Obviously, if someone is that dire for need of attention from the brand name she is obsessed about, is it any wonder she is telling the world just how shallow and pretentious her life really is? Middle aged women with bad hair and ugly sunglasses, who drive small sporty cars with arrogant and intentional markings of greed faceted to them, need to realize that all that cannot replace time they have lost, or the time they have left. Find happiness some other way, because it's obvious to the world you are advertising to, this way is not working, and it looks just plain desperate. More later...Tuesday, August 12, 2008
Cut Me Off? You.... Ewww!
