(V)INTAGE – Blogging from A to Z

‘V’ is for “vintage” – ads. Most of these just left me shaking my head. I think it’s safe to say that advertising was a male dominated field back in the day.So a coconut, marshmallow coated, cream filled, chocolate cake for a head is what Hostess thought was glamorous?? They’re guys, it’s the car but nice of Chevrolet to give a warning in their ad.
“All you ladies might as well be warned right now: You’re going to be the target for admiring eyes – perhaps a few whistles, too – in your slick new Chevrolet.”
Not one single case of throat irritation but maybe lung cancer? John Wayne beat his lung cancer in 1964 only to die of stomach cancer almost 20 yrs. later.. So sad. Not entirely sure how this ad is selling pants but, um, okay… And what’s with the creepy kid ads?

Maybe those kids are the reason for so many ads like this.

And ya’ know, maybe it’s not so much the kids as her asshole husband over-reacting because she bought the wrong coffee.

Then again maybe all she needed was a vitamin.
“Gosh honey, you seem to thrive on cooking, cleaning and dusting – And I’m all tuckered out by closing time. What’s the answer?”
“Vitamins, darling. I always get my vitamins.”
And speaking of pep. I need to get a lit’l pep in my step because I’ve got a shit ton of stuff to get done! – Maybe I need a vitamin!

Our weathermen were wrong. We have a beautiful day filled with sun and temps in the 60’s so you can bet I’ll be out in it. Be well my faithful readers.
Only 4 more A to Z posts and then it’s back to our regularly scheduled programming!
Right about now this is the way I’m feeling about the A to Z Challenge.

(U)NDERWEAR – Blogging A to Z

Today’s word is brought to you by Hanes, Fruit of the Loom, Victoria Secret, Vanity Fair, Jockey and Joe Boxer. Just to name a few. – Can you guess the word???
That’s right – UNDERWEAR!
Once upon a time this was underwear…
In modern day, it comes in a family pack.
Is this really a debate for men???Boxers vs. briefs??

Personally, I prefer the boxer brief.
And if you could “bend it like Beckham,” that’d be awesome.
Woman aren’t so picky. We just want something that’s not gonna’ crawl up our ass or give us panty lines.
Obviously, men don’t care…
Is this underwear or an engagement ring? You decide.underwear carrotIt’d be kinda’ hard to fit that carrot on her finger..
And I’ll just leave it at that.
I’m so glad women don’t have weird underwear. Do you think she’s “Ram tough?”

Did you know they made underwear for dogs?
Okay, not exactly this..

But this.. It’s a dog thong. Seriously. Would you put one on your pet???
I’m the first one to say that I love putting clothes on my pup but this??
Yeah, no.
Now, I have to tell you. As someone who sews A LOT. Never in a million years did I know that you can make clothing FROM men’s underwear but apparently you can.. Raise your hand if you’d wear it anywhere other than Walmart.
Tttthhhat’s all folks! – Just FYI, there’s a lot of shit written and posted about underwear, and I saved you all from eye bleaching today so you’re welcome.
We’re having rain all week so just assume that my whole week will be spent reading and sewing. If anything thrilling and spine chilling happens to occur I’ll be sure and let you all know.
Oh. Like this for instance. – Another “u” word? Under, as in under surveillance???
Slightly curious as to why the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Dept. is reading my blog..
Super curious why it’s the ‘Miranda Throws A Pleasure Party‘ post.
