This has absolutely nothing to do with how much crap you can buy for 20 dollars, it has to do with the the chef boyardee review that you’ve recently put up. You said: "The commercial starred the two kids up above, Hank and Sally. They’re dressed appropriately enough for the time period, though I’m a little concerned since they could easily switch outfits without it being considered gender-bending. I’m not sure which one of the children is at fault for that, but it’s making me hate them in ways I don’t care to describe or examine."
What made this so funny to me (and I’m sure I’m the ONLY one who thinks it’s funny) is we just got done talking about androgyny in fashion today in my fashion history class. Fashion is androgynous in times when economically, all is well. (It also tends to become asymetrical, which is more expensive to produce). So that’s why those kids could easily trade clothes, it was during the ’80s when we were doing pretty well money-wise =)

Yeah, it was super interesting in my head, typing it out made it pretty boring. *returns to lurking*

I don’t know if my computer sucks, I’m impatient, or if this is just a gaffe, but when I click on anything up there, I just get an ad, no pics.

*sniff* i miss you, dinosaur ruler.

also, regarding the chef boyardee thing, why didnt you throw up a little side-linky thing to the pac-man pasta? if my memory serves me, then didnt that also have the dreaded evil Golden Chicken Sauce?

Matt, the thought about getting a new shirt is a good point, but you need to think about this:

If you DID get that new shirt, could you really have pleased the masses in such a... ummm... "different" way as you have done with spending the $20 on worthless crap? I don't think that a shopping spree for 1 shirt could have been as entertaining. Then again, people do need clothes. This is deffinatly a tricky question to ponder. I do believe that the entertainment you provide is worth forgoing getting that new shirt. You know, opportunity costs and all!

keep up the good work, damn good page!

it wasn’t nearly as boring as waiting for X-E to load on dial-up. and now i know i’m not nearly as bored as matt. i mean, CRAP man! all this money from UGO and you spend it at Party City? Jesus Christ, I hope you atleast have one fucked up, bitching party full of debauchery and depravity to rival anything Studio 54 did.

I can’t imagine trying to load the site on dial-up. Look, I’m trying – can’t do it. Can’t imagine it. :/
