Is prom really a big deal? Can’t she just skip it?

Well now, aren’t I glad I didn’t read any reviews until now? Is it unsurprising the first one I saw was a ninny being humorless about the Communist plot? Maybe some of the humor was a little subtle?

Doesn’t she have the wrong mother? Isn’t that what I did? Why doesn’t she see the sense of your suggestion?

May I suggest for her prom dress she considers… Tweed? :smiling_imp:

Wouldn’t that be the fashion item of the year?

Didn’t I solve that ‘no one else shall have this dress’ thing by picking a pattern at the fabric store, chosing my own fabrics, and hiring a seamstress? Probably not cost competetive today, but wasn’t it in the 80’s?

Didn’t my awesome dead friend (whom I couldn’t stand for so many years) wear one of her grandmother’s dresses (and a looooong string of not-real-pearls) from the 20s and was’nt it even awesomer the second time around? (This was in 1987 so YMMV)

Are you planning on running for the Supreme Court?

I could, couldn’t I?

Should I put myself forward as a consensus candidate?

Would crowdsourcing all my decisions via the BBS be a potential vote-winner in the Senate, do you think?

Couldn’t I use the Poll function for it?

Shall I post some kind of rant about technology making things too easy for kids, allowing them to not have to face the hard situations in life head on, to not get to practice graciousness in the face of the vagaries of life? Get off my lawn? What’s that you say, there’s nothing new under the sun, humans are still humans, and technology simply brings us new/other ways to be awkward and get over it?

Ain’t that the truth?

And can you believe, one of the dresses she looked at today was amazingly similar to the dress I wore to my 8th grade graduation? And wasn’t another girl wearing exactly the same dress, weren’t we both honors students so we were in the first row on stage, and wasn’t the other girl a bully who found this a perfect excuse to torment me?

Good times? (Yeah, no.)

Didn’t someone I know go in a wedding dress from the thrift store?

Anyone wanna guess who saw Ceelo Green today going into Walter’s shoe store downtown today?

While I am a big fan of pomp and circumstance, isn’t it even better when you can make important life events your own?.

Hmmmm, didn’t I rent a tux for junior prom (and end up wearing thrifted plaid pajama pants instead of the dorky tux pants), and spend $5 at a thrift store for an early-60s party dress for senior prom?

Hmm…was it Walter? Was it CeeLo Green seeing his own reflection in the plate glass window as he went in? Am I close? Is it a trick question?
