Dispatches From The Couch: Flashin’ Faux Pas
2008-10-02 22:27:00 By: Couch Tater Okay, folks, it’s officially time to grow up. For those who haven’t heard, the Parents Television Council is up in arms following an accidental flash of penis revealed on the September 25 episode of SURVIVOR: GABON. (Go ahead do a quick Google image search. I’ll wait.) I’m willing to bet that 95 percent of you would never have seen contestant Marcus Lehman’s no-longer private parts were it not for the fact that the PTC turned this flash-in-the-pan(ts) moment into a major scandal by filing an indecency complaint against CBS with the Federal Communications Commission and, in turn, making his the most seen crotch since Britney stepped out of a limo sans panties. Seriously? (more…)

Kelly Ripa's Fashion Faux Pas
2008-05-25 12:17:00 We are really trying to love this dress on Kelly Ripa pictured above with husband Marc Consuelos, but its just not possible.

A little faux pas
2008-04-17 05:24:00 A post on nurse K's blog reminded me of a funny thing that happened one time (in sort of a dark, sick way.)It was the weekend in upstate NY and it was hazy, hot and humid. Peoples tempers rose in direct correlation to the heat index and we were experiencing a sharp upswing in shootings, stabbings and assaults.It was 8 pm and the ER was slammed to the rafters, all hallway beds full, two gunshot wounds in the trauma bays and a code going on in the critical section. There were about a thousand cops, nurses, residents, attendings and ancillary staff running around the ER in barely controlled chaos.The code was called. Before we could even get our breath we got the call that there was a five car pile up on the interstate with approximately 10 criticals and 5 minors. Since we were the trauma center we knew we'd get at least three of the most critical. The problem was that there was nowhere to put them.Out of desperation we quickly did post mortem care on the code patient. There wa...

2008 Oscar Awards Red Carpet Hits and Misses, Fashion Faux Pas, Fug and Gor
2008-02-26 02:02:00 Stars really don't know how to dress. They're just too lazy to put the work in, so they hire gay guys and drama queens to do it for them. Case in point, the 2008 Oscar red carpet pictures.I don't know what's going on with red carpet fashion this year. I thought a majority of those Hollywood playas were looking straight fug, especially Cameron Diaz. Why was she there? Anyway, the bitch looks like she didn't even shower before the show. That peachy color dress with the poofy butt looks ridiculous and the hair looks like she just left the gym. Don't half ass it, either wear it up or down!

Fashion Faux Pas
2008-01-28 06:19:00 As I was out and about today I saw three fashion faux pas. The first was a girl wearing a skirt with calf high winter boots...NOOOOO. Ugh, I just wanted to scream at her how absurdly stupid she looked. The second was a woman who was wearing black knee high leather boots with olive green bermuda shorts. Yes it's as bad as you're thinking. The third was a guy, thin build, wearing tight, straight leg jeans that were cuffed at the bottom, no socks, and shoes that looked like they were a mix between sneakers and loafers. To make matters worse, the guys plaid boxers were hanging out. It really was just horrible, I have no idea what they were thinking.

Eliot Spitzer Makes Hilarious Faux Pas
2008-01-10 16:03:00 Governor Spitzer lauded Kerry Kennedy during a speech his rival Andrew Cuomo was at, knowing that Kennedy and Cuomo went through a bitter divorce after she cheated on him. CNBC "Street Sweetie" Erin Burnett is catching heat at the network for the Men's Health story she wrote titled, "Eight Things That Would Impress Me," which made her look like, well, a girl who likes to be around money. New Jersey Net Jason Kidd's girlfriend, Hope Dworaczyk, is pregnant. Stars and publicists hate working with Men's Vogue because the magazine double books covers.

Google’s privacy faux pas with Reader
2007-12-28 00:20:00 In its attempts to add social elements to products, is Google pulling a Facebook? Google Reader has allowed people to share items they are interested in with others since 2006 with hyperlinks, clips on blogs and storing them on a public page that you had to know the URL for to see. Last week, Google tweaked Google Reader so that your shared items are automatically made available to your Google Talk contacts. But, as anyone who uses instant messaging knows, not all of your IM contacts are friends. Many are acquaintances or people you barely know and with whom you may not want to share a reading list. Recently, Facebook was forced to modify its new Beacon ad targeting service that notifies friends in your network when you buy things on sites of Facebook partners. Facebook made that an opt-in feature, however, after consumer groups and Facebook members complained the service violated people's privacy. Google, too, has been crucified in the blogosphere over its Google Reader c...
Faux Pas
2007-12-22 21:55:00 From Wikipedia.The term comes from French and literally means "false step". However, it is a formal rather than everyday expression in French and does not generally have the figurative meaning used in English.A faux pas (pronounced[help] /?fo??p??/, plural: faux pas /?fo??p??(z)/) is a violation of accepted, although unwritten, social rules.Well now that we have learned some French, I'm excited to say that faux is no longer a faux pas. At least when it comes to fashion jewellery. With fashion houses such as Yves Saint Laurent, Louis Vuitton and Christian Dior turning out sophisticated designs (some of which cost as much as the real thing), the stigma of fake jewelry is gone. Today it's not uncommon to see the most chic women mixing fine and faux in the same outfit.
Last Night, At The Band Concert

Spice Girls Commit A Fashion Faux Pas, Twice!
2007-11-21 23:03:00 The Spice Girls made their debut as a reunited group at the 12th Annual Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, and they looked as fabulous as ever. But take a closer look at Geri (Ginger Spice) and Emma's (Baby Spice) outfits. Do they look familiar? Well they should. Both ladies' ensembles were previously worn by former pop princess Britney Spears. Maybe the girls need a new stylist. Not only were both dresses previously worn by Spears, but Britney wore them three years ago (long before she lost her mind). If it's any consolation to Baby and Ginger, they do look nice wearing Britney's hand me downs.

Turd Blossom?s Immigration Faux Pas
2007-09-04 22:49:00 According to Dick Polman in the Philadelphia Inquirer last Sunday (here)?Karl Rove is right.That's not a misprint.President Bush's career guru has long insisted that Republicans will never achieve permanent majority status unless they can connect with Hispanic voters. Since his White House departure, he has warned Republicans that their persistent immigrant-bashing is hazardous to their long-term political health. In Rove's words, "You cannot ignore the aspirations of the fastest-growing minority in America."Wow, I guess the fact that Rove recognizes the obvious is what makes him a political genius (but being the scheming rat that he will always be, I know that you can never count him out).I wonder, though, if he was ?trying to connect with Hispanic voters? when he spoke the following (as noted here - there are many, many ways the Repugs have alienated this constituency, but I'll just focus on this for the moment)?"I don't want my 17-year-old son to have to pick tomatoes or mak...

First Day Faux Pas
2007-08-22 03:35:00 Remember me? I’m the proud mama prude trying to keep her daughter modestly dressed at all costs. Well, I have a confession to make. I sent my daughter to school in hoochie-wear. On her first day of kindergarten.I know. It’s shameful. I should be banished to live on the Island of Misfit Mothers where I can mingle with Dina Lohan. But in my defense, it was an accidental, completely unintended protistot ensemble. And there’s a moral to this story, so pay attention.I bought Leah this cute little dress at Walmart for just six dollars. It was one of those belted shirt dresses reminiscent of the 1960’s. Simply adorable. In addition to that dress I also bought knee-high tights. It’s Idaho Falls and not only are tights practical, but there’s nothing cuter than a little girl in a dress with knit tights.And that was the outfit Leah chose to wear the first day of school. And it wasn’t until we were ready to leave that I realized the tights were not quite as high as I expected whil...

Visible Bra Straps: The fashion faux pas of the summer
2007-05-11 21:32:00 This summer's biggest fashion faux pas is the VBS - or Visible Bra Strap - according a new survey.Displaying the rogue straps, which frequently slip out from behind tiny blouse sleeves, is the most disastrous and "cheap looking" gaffe a woman can make this year, according to the poll.Seeing red: Gwen Stefani strikes out with a bold frilly number. Britney Spears, who usually prefers to not wear a bra at all, puts her straps on showThe style crime, frequently committed by celebrities including Gwen Stefani, Britney Spears and Amy Winehouse, echoes the infamous VPL, or visible panty line.Other no-no's include chipped nail varnish at number two on the list, too skimpy skirts, wearing sock with sandals and revelaing thongs, according to the survey by Wonderbra.The survey found 57 per cent of women - and 42 per cent of men - found the VBS a turn-off, labelling it "unattractive".Guilty: Kylie Minogue lets one slip, while singer Pink's bra pops from her topA third of women said it looked...

Bush?s Fashion Faux Pas: Tale Of Many Black Tuxedos
2006-12-07 22:07:01 I’m sure President Bush felt like a complete tard at the White House Christmas reception recently. Bush had on the same outfit as almost every other man at the Christmas party. So the question arises: how could this have happened? More importantly, if you’re going to break out the big bucks for the beauty, wouldn’t you want to be confident you’re the only one wearing it…(more) Especially if you’re the President of the United States? Why does he have that stupid grin on his face? Doesn’t he know he is breaking a gay fashion faux pas? Whatever a faux pas is it sounds bad. More proof that electing the Democrats was a great idea. At least Libtards would have had enough since to not cause a faux pas. Update: Sorry I misread the news story the fashion queers were actually talking about Laura Bush having on the same dress as three other women at the Christmas party. What is she stupid? She’ll have to burn that dress now. The most important th... |
