Proof that I'm old

So according to Stuff White People Like (that impeccable arbiter of my demographic's taste), bangs are cool.

For white people, the haircut-with-bangs is an important symbol that a female has completed her transformation from a nerdy girl to a cool woman. In fact, if you went to high school with a nerdy white girl who moved to a big city, there is a good chance she will show up to your high school reunion with this haircut.


It was just the opposite for me. When I was the nerdy girl in high school, I had bangs. As part of becoming attractive, I grew them out. (Yes, I'm still nerdy, but I'm sufficiently hotter than I was in high school that this cliche should apply.)

So a complete trend reversal has occurred in the fashion-aware portion of my lifetime. That must mean I'm old.

Wow! I just logged in to say I also have bangs again, and found this comment. This is one of the trolls who keeps posting even tho his comments don't get through.

This is amazing! He is following me around to the blogs of wmtc commenters!

(By the way, that's abortion, singular. One abortion, zero shame.)

PS: you're not a boy? i-girl will be surprised!

redsock. said...

so youre a baby killer also? surprising really as i cant imagine any man sticking you. i'm really tiring of laura and her simple-minded leftiness. but i do enjoy calling minister finley or whomever else she says call and tell them to do just opposite of what laura says. i'm probably responsible for over 100 calls to minister finley asking her to boot the traitors out of our country. way to go laura, i would have never thought to call without you.
