I think that might be a new swear.)<BR/><BR/>Ill-fitting tights and nylons are a tool of the patriarchy to keep wimmin down. Seriously. You can neither climb the corporate ladder nor kick ass while holding up saggy tights with one hand.<BR/><BR/>And in more seriousness, spray on pantyhose is a pretty awesome concept. Even though it was an SCTV skit first. I've tried it... I have a bottle sitting right here - "Vitamn K Airbrush Legs" by Sally Hansen. <BR/><BR/>You pointed out one of the drawbacks already, Beth - unfortunately it doesn't come in tweedy fiberglass-laden varieties to keep you warm (yet). The bottle does advertise that it is "optically slimming" (!) and good for hiding bruises (!?).<BR/><BR/>The colours are ick. It comes in a bunch of shades of browny orange ... skin tone for _somebody_. (Not anyone I've ever met though.) <BR/><BR/>In conclusion, spray on pantyhose covers albinoness pretty convinicingly, and gives you that ugly beige pantyhose colour that says "my legs aren't naked!". Beyond that, it still has a way to go.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14327898.post-69335322052873058762007-03-22T18:59:00.000-07:002007-03-22T18:59:00.000-07:00Babe...you can get size A nylons.

I get them in bulk at Costco, in both black and 'nude'...maybe we can hit a Costco when I am out there or when we are in Calgary. It's a great deal - 6 pairs of the 'Silk' sheer nylons for around $20. They're control top, though.<BR/>Do you want me to pick some up this weekend and bring them with?

For real. Problem with that is that, believe it or not, I wear nylons not only to hide the fact that I'm an albino, but also to keep me warm (I know they are thin, but they do keep you slightly warming than bare legs... at least in my mind they do!)<BR/><BR/>Kalev - ya, I knew you'd freak out just like I did over the stupidity of it all.<BR/><BR/>Rebecca - I'll keep at them.

They do make plus-size nylons, but you have to be 6'7" to wear them, because I can pull mine up to my armpits when I deign to wear them.<BR/><BR/>And it is possible for the loan people to combine your payments - you just have to keep at them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14327898.post-43830407835172013482007-03-22T11:23:00.000-07:002007-03-22T11:23:00.000-07:00Oh my gosh that "healthcare professional" shit is ...Oh my gosh that "healthcare professional" shit is totally ridiculous! What a crock of shit!!!<BR/><BR/>And why is it that the people administering all these student loan programs are so moronically uninformed?<BR/><BR/>But if you can, totally press them to consolidate that ridiculously high number of loans you have. It's shameful and disgusting they would even bother to set them up that way and they need to fix it, pronto! It would save them hassle and money, too, not to mention you.<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry 99% of the people in the world are so fucking stupid.

Or socks in a can. Or something. Basically, it was just a bunch of dudes spray-painting socks on. “Comes in black, grey, brown, and now—argyle!” I believe this same technology can be used for nylons.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06856187137331544258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14327898.post-56901037973618621452007-03-22T06:36:00.000-07:002007-03-22T06:36:00.000-07:00Obviously you should quit your job and go into bus...Obviously you should quit your job and go into business making size A nylons.<BR/><BR/>Might as well start making Q and Z as well, just in case you have friends that need those (Q = 4 legs, Z = trasnvestite pouches)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
