Tacky
 
Wearing white socks with black shoes. Worse, wearing white socks (or any socks, for that matter) with sandals.

Turning tires onto their side, painting them white, and planting flowers in the middle.

Pantylines.

Wearing a bikini top to the grocery store.

Having an upholstered couch on your front porch.

Continuing to display hanging baskets with withering or dead flowers in them.

Christmas lights up all year, unless you're physically unable to take them down. And if that's the case, please don't turn them on unless it's holiday season.


This message brought to you by Paula, who's in a very snarky mood today. Anyone else care to share some tack? :D

*Waiters (either gender) with bare midriff - unless you work at a topless joint, or are serving me a drink at the beach, I don't want your belly in my face when I order food.:distress:
*dangling nail jewelry
*clerks talking on the phone with friends in front of customers/customers talking on the cell phone in front of clerks

whatever makes you say that? :woohoo:

it's just sooooo rude, you know? but i guess unless you've worked at a restaurant, you don't understand how much time & effort go into closing up shop.

Using a funeral as a business opportunity (for example, distributing business cards to mourners, placing cell phone calls to business clients).

Women of a certain age wearing tube tops or halter tops. Without a bra. :eek:

Shiny metallic baby blue eyeshadow. Mascara in colors other than black or brown.

Cutting an old bathtub in half & standing it up in the ground, then putting a statue of the virgin Mary in it.

Artificial flowers. Especially outside in a garden.

Oh man - I used to work in a place (back in my rest. days) where we had a regular who arrived every day 5 minutes before the end of lunch. AAAArgh, 4 people had to stay for one customer for an extra 45 minutes at each lunch! They finally changed the closing time to a half hour later, and then he STILL came 5 minutes before closing. He said he liked having the place to himself. I think there is a special place reserved for him in the afterlife.

This all makes me think of Burning Man. :laugh: If I look through my photos I might be able to find all these items in one Burning Man pic...perhaps not the tube top.

puts you in a murderous rage, no? we have this lady who comes in almost every night ... she's like 120 years old, and we call her the cat lady because she always talks about her cats (one of which is named gandalf, which i find really cute), and she's been coming in RIGHT at 9 when we close, and she takes for-ev-er to eat ... and then sometimes she'll sit there after she's finished and pay her bills. grrrrrrrrrr. :mad: :mad: :mad:

Shut. Up.

:laugh:

I'm not to into labels, I actually think most LV stuff is fug.

But I think that if you can't afford the real thing, don't bother. I just don't get it.

Long red hooker fingernails. Sorry, Stevie.



Banana clips.

Men with longish 70's porn mustaches. Ala' Magnum PI.
