Poor, poor, Sugar shorts.
When I was a little girl all of five, I wanted to wear my pink and white polka dot dress. It was so adorable. Thing is, it was about 10 sizes too small and when I went out to the kitchen to show my nanny how pretty I looked in it, instead of congratulating me, she got upset and said, "You can't wear that dress, sweetie, it's too small for you!"
Oh yes I can too!!
Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! Back to my bedroom! Locked Priscilla out! Climbed on my bed and stared out my bedroom window with Priscilla yelling at me through the door to TAKE OFF THAT DRESS, GINA!
Oh, I cried, and cried. I looked so good in that dress. I just couldn't understand what the big deal was. It was very small, though, I had to finally admit. It was so tight around my ribcage I could barely breathe to sob. ;D
But see, looking baaaaaack... I can clearly see.
I bet if Sugar shorts was wearing a kilt the joke might have ended a little differently. But we'll never know, will we.

One of my personal favorites is Dr Seuss with his exquisite understanding of the human psyche. Our internal dialogue (unregenerate of course) can sometimes sound like this:
“Even if I wanted to go, my schedule wouldn't allow it!
4 o'clock: Wallow in self pity
4:30: Stare into the abyss
5 o'clock: Solve world hunger. (Tell NO ONE) ;D
5:30: Jazzersize
6:30: Dinner with me (I can't cancel that again.)
7 o'clock: Wrestle with my self loathing
I’M BOOKED!”

PS did you know that we are the only ones of God's creation that blush - I think it's because we have been given the ability to recognise our reflection and understand our underlying motives
Love you all - personally - I find satire almost a balm for the soul - not to laugh at someone else's pain - but to see my own ridiculousness and vanity

Yes we have all kinds of humor here... I usually don't comment just let people have there fun. But sometimes I see something and I feel like making a comment, that's all.

Same here. :)
Gina:
Oh, yes, good ol' Dr. Seusse.
Twas a favorite of mine as a kid. I still is...a kid--that is.
We are the only blushers in the whole pack. No, really!
Can't you see
How that could be?
For sure, our cheeks are smooth.
But theirs are hairy.
Others still are scaly.
So I conclude,
That I exude
A certain amount of unregenerate-sy
Don't you agree, Hayley?
The End.
