I have come to realize...

[dolo amber]

That there is not, possibly, on the face of the earth, anything more utterly soul-crushingly boring than shopping for sofa slipcovers. It's enough to cause a person to quite simply perish. :boring: :cry:

1. what? your hubby won't MAKE you one?

4. Handy with a needle and thread he is not, young Jedi

[matcom]

6. you could get it annuled

12. I s'pose...but then who would torment him?

It'd be like giving a serial killer the death penalty rather than life in prison...he'd be getting off too easily. :P

(Heh...I said getting off... :D)

[matcom]

16. we could have weekly Lounge contests

you know, have people eat nasty things and push the envelope with the sex threads. winners would be in charge of 'Tormentation' for the following week.

as for the 'getting off' stuff, i'm available from noon to 2:00pm Monday thru Thursday and 10:00am - 3:00pm on Fridays. :D

2. The only thing worse is reading about it....

:boring:

[dolo amber]

7. I'm sorry...did you say something?

5. for me, it is towel shopping....

Yuck. Textiles= badness.

[dolo amber]

10. I love some nice towels, I do NOT love shopping for them

I need a helper monkey. :(

:D :hi:

[Midlodemocrat]

18. Here's a helpful hint.

The best towels evah, are the ones called The Great One from Kohl's.
I have finally settled on the nicest, fluffiest, biggest ones for sale anywhere in the US.

And, when they go on sale, they are a steal at like $4 each.

17. What? Dis not the towel!

"A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have...What the strag (strag: nonhitchhiker) will think is that any person who can hitch the length and breadth of the Galaxy, rough it, slum it, struggle against terrible odds, win through and still know where his/her towel is, is clearly a person to be reckoned with."

8. slipcovers are to sofas as victor calderone is to goldfrapp

[dolo amber]

14. Oh dear

:spray:

11. The worst for me was trying to find the right sized bolt for my mailbox.

It took us two trips to find it, and ... I'm sorry, did you say something? :boring:

[dolo amber]

15. Home ownership truly *is* the American Dream

:patriot:

[flamingyouth]

20. Especially an OLD one!

Yeah, there's never anything breaking or going wrong here! ;)
