Decided to have some fun with today’s OOTD post! The new wet look skirt and nude heels seemed like a fun combo, and who doesn’t love skulls? Blue & gold is a favorite color combination of mine, so there’s that too. Oh yeah, and I decided to feature my daughter, Bridget, in this set. It’s hard to believe it’s been a little over four months since she came into our lives, and Mrs. Spookshow & I couldn’t be happier. Bridget is usually all smiles too, but she just had to photobomb daddy this go around. Ah, well, haha.

Check out my blog, HisBlackDress.com, for more on this look and some musings about being a stay at home dad in heels. I kinda can’t get over these fit & flare skirts, ya’ll, what do you think?

Them legs…

Unnecessary “fillers” in our speech. I’d rather have “like” than up-talking, though (if we had to choose one, that is). Ewwww, up-talking. Then again, a combination of the two would render me homicidal maniac.

yes, colloquial speech is stupid
discourse particles are stupid
quotative particles are stupid
fillers are stupid
lower registers of speech = stupid!!!!!!woah aaa/

Like, did you ever notice? That, like, the speech patterns people, like, think are stupid?  Are, like, commonly associated with, like, women?
And, like, there’s this thing? Where, like, women aren’t supposed to be, like, assertive? So they, like, qualify their speech? Because, like, we’re not supposed to, like, stand by our opinions?

1) humiliate women so they don’t feel qualified to speak authoritatively about anything
2) humiliate women for speaking in such a way that reflects how you treat her
3) laugh, you are superior because you don’t use words like “like.”  It isn’t as if being a huge stupid asshole has ever made you worse than a woman who speaks with verbal tics.  

Holy shit

the thing that’s so frustrating is that the WOMAN IN THE POSTER HERSELF is saying that people SHAME HER ENOUGH ABOUT THE WAY THAT SHE SPEAKS that she doesn’t feel confident about attending college.
and the moral of the story is that the victim of bullying should stop making herself a target?
what the fuck kind of message is that?

No one will be alive by the last book. In fact, they all die in the fifth. The sixth book will be just a thousand-page description of snow blowing across the graves.

And the 2013 award for Greatest Idea of the Year goes to this. Seriously, I don’t care if its May, close the voting, its all downhill from here.

A lot of people immediately head towards the cruder varieties and I’m not gonna say they’re wrong for doing that, I’m just saying that, for me, the funniest Benedict Cumberbatch deliberate mispronunciation will always be “Bumberbumber Bumberbumber”

Ted, don’t look so sad. Don’t you hate it when people say that to you when you’re walking down the street? Has anyone ever said that to you when you’re walking down the street? No, because you’re a guy and only men say that to women, so they just- Right, sisters? Right? Girls know what I’m talking about. ‘Why do you look so sad? Give daddy a smile.’
