(Okay, that sounded weird.) But yeah, anyone can pull it off to an extent...but PJ took it to the next level, and she blew it. You, Ms. Blaney, look just fine in your black hoodies and such.

i cannot fucking be-LIEVE that shane simpson just referred to louise brooks as "fake and ugly" - UGLY???

i'm totally sending shane a letter bomb. bastard.

i think pj looks great in all-black and in pretty much whatever she wants, for that matter. i mean you can't judge folks like pj or diamanda by normal beauty standards, because they're intentionally going for pure artifice, for the creation of an image over any kind of natural presentation. pj isn't even trying to look beautiful on the cover of Rid of Me - and that's precisely where the fascination lies (for me, at least) - in her willingness to complete fuck with conventional beauty standards. i mean, exene cervenka did the same thing, intentionally dressed up like a homeless bag lady who'd just stuck her finger in an electric socket, and something about it was so fucking brilliant as to be mesmerising, as to be "beautiful" in a perversely unbeautiful way.

that made no sense at all.

Cheers,
M

When Jesus and Riley argue over PJ, it's not her "beauty" they're concerned with. We were discussing "shaggability." And as for PJ, she's only got it when she ditches the black.

Like in that amazing pic I posted.

Mary: I don't like my woman to look so sad, unless they have pouty full lips, and sexy lighted eyes.

So i may be a bit wrong about that men being obsolete. I'm not sure if lesbians have actually made baby's yet. I'm kinda sure...heh...it's been done with female rats.

Luke: Thanks again for that PJ pic, i'd given up all hope and thought that Jesus was just some weird brit perv.

You should try it out:

Yeah, you should be able to pull it off.

Man oh man, I'm getting tired but I'm not going to bed just yet. Afraid I'll be doing little posting this weekend...girlfriend will be done teaching for the semester, and she insists on having all of my attention all weekend, which includes her "turning off the computer." Then I'm off to the beach and then my mom's for a bit...so I dunno. I'm sure I'll be around more than I think I will.

I figure i'm going to go for the 2nd hand clothes look.

I'll be playing the bass in the city, so i'll need a look for that.

If i had my way i'd wear jogging pants and undershirts everywhere.

I bought a strokes t-shirt, but for some reason i think i'll look kinda like some weeny with it on.

"look at that guy with the Strokes shirt, trying to act like he knows obscure bands, bet he never heard of Jet."

Yeah, only guy I know who can make that Strokes shirt work is this dumb jock kid I know who looks so clueless that you're actually impressed he owns a Strokes shirt.

Keep in mind that I was doing the trashed indie tee look long before I was a frat boy, I'll have you know. Also keep in mind that you can change that look into "trendy dork in a Slayer shirt" look by changing almost nothing at all...
