I'd support this protest except there is a possibility that there could, maybe, be the possibility of violence.

Posted by: Joshua at March 8, 2005 07:31 PMDon't worry, Joshua, you don't look like you're wearing a cheap-ass wig.

Okay, I give; what the hell are you talking about?
Posted by: Joshua at March 9, 2005 11:28 AMHe was talking about the ambiguity of your sentence.
Posted by: Etienne at March 9, 2005 12:25 PMI gathered that was what he was going for, but it's not clear to me how my sentence is ambiguous.

The implication being that you, like that chick, look like you're wearing a cheap-ass wig, i.e. Is it just me that looks like I'm wearing a cheap-ass wig?
It's an old joke and, apparently, not a very funny one. Carry on.
Posted by: Ryan at March 9, 2005 05:16 PMC'mon Ryan, you should know by now that Joshua doesn't have a sense of humour.
But yes, it does look like she's wearing a cheap-ass wig. I'm not surprised, and I expect her big chunky sunglasses and false nose probably fell off moments before the photo was taken. Who in their right mind would own up to such saggy baps?
Posted by: simon at March 10, 2005 05:55 AMIn fact, as I understand, her slogan is "Get your colonial shame off my breasts". So if the poor Prince went up to her and somehow removed "colonial shame" from her aforementioned appendages, possibly via the application of alcohol (which to be honest gets most things off, particularly clothing) what would he then write instead? "Senseless slogan" would be a viable alternative. "Permanent Marker" would be ironic.
I can see her point though - the whole British Monarchy has been getting on our tits for years now. It's about time us Antipodeans took a leaf out of you Yank's book and did away with them all.
Posted by: simon at March 10, 2005 06:05 AMI think its really kind of quaint and funny how the English still exist in a monarchy. Just like I think its kind of quaint and funny (and sad) that so many people are so into the moment to moment deterioration of the Pope.
And it does look like a bad wig. But I give her extra points for the decoration above the letters.
Truthfully, does anyone outside of the British really give a damn that Charles is remarrying? I know I don't. Charles is the royal that makes all the rest of them look tough, he looks like a stiff breeze might take him out.
Posted by: Johnny Huh? at March 10, 2005 02:48 PMIt's either the Hayley Mills circa "That Darn Cat" wig or the Lulu "To Sir, with Love" model.
As a Yank, it's hard to tell the difference.
