things i just don't understand


this hairstyle that seems to be sweeping the teen nation...


so, i'm confused. are cargo pants in or out? haven't stacey and clinton told us no?


the mustache thing. i don't get it.


why aubry doesn't like adam lambert. i mean, i know he's cuckoo, but as far as catchy pop songs go, he's pretty amazing. (and i am not a catchy pop song kind of girl.)


do people actually buy stuff from the skymall magazine?


can you please explain these things to me?

that hair makes me crazy. it's pretty stupid looking. my brother-in-law is 15 and all his dufus friends have it. saying that made me feel really old and un hip.

i like cargos. only the straight legged slim ankle kind though.

i am with you on the mustache thing. wha?

adam lambert makes my skin crawl. i've never been able to pin point why. I only know him from american idol and haven't heard any of his stuff since, but he sorta ever so slightly grosses me.

every time i am in an airplane i want like 10 things from the skymall magazine. so many of them just seem like they will make my life and traveling so much better. especially the Harry and the Henderson's lawn ornament.

this is the best post ever.

as for the teen hair, i am quite sure that chiropractors are loving it because all the kids necks are out of joint from the way they whip their hair to one side all the time. and j. biebs is probably loving it too because i think he singlehandedly started it.

skymall- never. pure entertainment. i don't even know if the stuff acrtually exists (nah, it probably does).

this is easy. Of course the model is a young man, but the obvious usage for the rip cord thingy is a head splint for older people. If things are broken, and life is off just a bit, an older person can stick his or her head in the splint and bingo, just like Temple Grandin and her Cow press, relaxation is just a tug away. The sasquatch thing is included in the SkyMall magazine just to see if people really are paying attention. Just some observations from an older person. Love you. Dad

All of my students have that hair. Even the mexicans. Which really means something.

I won't comment on everything, but as for the bigfoot lawn ornament... If you ever make it up to Humboldt County in California, you will see bigfoot merchandise EVERYWHERE!!! Just about everyone there is convinced that they have seen big foot at one time or other. You will see entire stores devoted entirely to bigfoot. In fact, there was a man who was in my ward when I lived there that would LOVE said lawn ornament.

ugh. that hair is really awful! and the twitch to keep it in place is even worse.

i'm not so much a fan of the skinny cargos... mostly because i saw them at old navy and i really hate old navy... mostly because of their commercials.

thank you! what is the mustache dealio?! i'm over it... but i was never in it.

i'm not a catchy pop song kind of girl either.

the guy who invented sky mall was in lando's ward growing up. holla.

this made me laugh as mi esposo and i spend a few minutes before our stake conference today playing "find the bieber".

and that guy wearing the head strap? whhaaaat is that? a cozy way to hang yourself?

ames said...

that hair looks like a ground hog wrapped around their heads. and now that I said that I don't think I can look at Beiber again without dry heaving. I love this post and agree on the mustaches. Ha ha, we get it, mustaches are kind of quirky and some styles are zany. now lets move on to more important things. Like the patch of hair guys grow under their mouths. gross.

abby said...

what i don't understand is why that wedding party is all wearing tevas? am i right or am i blind?

i told my teenage sunday school class on sunday that i just don't get the bieber. they laughed. it was a lesson on honesty so it was important to express that.

okay, i'm a little behind schedule with the blog comments. but:

justin bieber is my main man. back off.
my sneaking suspicion says that's a j.crew photo - forget stacey and clinton, if j.crew's jenna says cargos are okay, then cargos are okay.
my disgust for mustaches are keeping me silent here. i just have nothing to say on the matter.
adam lambert is AWFUL. just awful. beginning with that v-neck... nothing will change me.
skymall is nothing more than a means of entertainment to hurried travelers who did not have time to buy their own trashy magazines for the plane ride. skymall hits their mark by way of entertainment.

p.s. adam lambert is AWFUL.

Sweet J said...

I may steal this idea FYI but only 5 people read my blog so you are good. Also....the sweepy hair is so David Cassidy and thereby SOOOOO hot.

Katie said...

i'll have to ditto everything kelly said. hair? stupid. cargos? like the straight legged ones. mustache? can we say napoleon dynamite? adam lambert is dis.gus.ting. he also makes my skin crawl. gross.
so, i dont' have much to add...but i did really like this post!

Brooke said...

I don't get the mustache thing either! I thought I was the only one. And my mom totally shops out of the skymall mag. :)

Stacey said...

Who cares about mustaches when 7 relatively attractive adult men are wearing TEVAS??!! Tevas with suits. Tevas at all. I just can't even see the mustaches.
