Glitter Phobia

I've mentioned this before on my site, but what's the big deal about glitter? Do people really think it's sexy to look like you just rolled around in a stack of arts and craft supplies? I don't understand the appeal. If I see a girl wearing glitter, I immediately think that she either works with children, or is covered in sand. Those are the only two explanations my rational brain can come up with.

  • Steve, I have not been able to appreciate your recent comments like normal. They have not been producing the coversation that ones in the past have provoked. Could you work on that please?

  • I'll get right on that. And by "I'll get" I mean "you can". And by "right on that", I mean "bite me".

    Your loving roommate, S.

    Oh, Cait, I'm concerned. That movie frightened me.

  • oh my gosh! kingsley, you make me feel so much better! i have this really wierd shimmer phobia too! it is only the small tiny stuff that i hate. basically it isnt that i hate glitter, i just hate that i cant get it off. i think it would be the same problem for anything that just spreads and never comes off! but seirously i have to like look at makeup with a magnifying glass, it isnt normal!
