Linktastic Plastic

The following links lead to interesting and entertaining stories not mentioned on Super-Fantastic Plastic - the majority don't involve cosmetic surgery; therefore, they're too off-subject for inclusion in this blog, but that doesn't mean they aren't enjoyable.

Anecdote of the week:

Legendary writer, poet and Algonquin Round Table member Dorothy Parker was once asked to a high-society party in New York by women who knew nothing of her contempt for high-society trophy wives.

The women all gathered in the parlor to play a game called Can-You-Give-Me-A-Sentence in which the players are given a word and challenged to use that word in a sentence. When it was Parker's turn, she was given the word horticulture.

Without missing a beat, she replied, "You can lead a horticulture, but you can't make her think."

My weekly, non-cosmetic surgery related rant:

Can I just ask, what's the deal with people misusing the word 'relevant'? Relevant to what? Pop culture, soda pop, Pop Rocks? WHAT?

How the hell is hair relevant to anything? Can your hair be irrelevant to your ass? I don't understand.

For that matter, would people please stop trying to be relevant and just focus on producing the best product possible? No, no, no... everyone has to go around saying, 'Ooooh, look at me! I'm relevant."

Just stop it!
