Princess Diana In Memoreo

It just means I’ve found EatingOffThePeople’sPrincess, a blog that consists of nothing but artfully consumed and arranged foods on a Princess Diana commemorative plate. I mean, did the world really have to wait for blogs to come into existence to give these things a purpose? What did people do with them before, other than sell them on eBay and flea markets? How many generations of royal divorces would you have to collect these puppies to have four place settings, anyway? I don’t remember any Princess Margaret/Tony Snowdon commemorative divorce plates.

Be sure and see the “Di Hard” and “Di Harder” entries! I wonder if this counts as posthumous public service?

You won’t believe this. Your brain will explode from all the fabulousness on display as Tim Gunn of Project Runway tears apart the worst-loved super hero costumes of all time:

“You’d think an escape artist would want to have peripheral vision…”

“This looks so Broadway! I can just see Ann Miller tapdancing in this,” on Catwoman’s outfit. “I’m a fan of the Michelle Pfeiffer look, not the Halle Berry one. If your look is invoking the word “Halloween” that’s a sign it’s not working for you.”

And part two:

ZOMG Ginny is taller than Harry! (UKPopSugar)

Well, I don’t glove this look. One thinks, one does, that if one were Queen one would certainly have a Silver Nose Trowel In Waiting or somesuch servant to do one’s digging for one. One would certainly not go rooting for nose goblins with one’s kid gloves on, because it stains and it makes one’s nanny cry. Although since she was on her way to welcome in the new government, perhaps she was just preparing a nasty surprise for David Cameron?

“Refained”:

Excessively refined and genteel: cultured coll.: since ca. 1920. Ex a ‘refained’ pron. of refined.

From the inability of certain persons to pronounce words correctly, due to their fake and ostentatiously upper-crust accents. Or perhaps the habit of leaving one’s kid gloves on while picking one’s proboscis?

Trivia fact: I once dropped a man I was dating, a very nice one, for a number of reasons but foremost among them that he attempted to pick his nose with his ski gloves on, and then attempted to shake my hand. At least I got third prize in a bad date contest for that!

Let’s start the week right with some eye candy, shall we? Presenting Prince Hot Ginge:

As Borat would say, “verrrrry niiiiiiiiice!” The great thing about uniforms is, if they look bad the entire country complains about them until they get fixed; in a way, it’s sort of crowdsourcing design. Yes, there are practical considerations to which one must Iraqiesce. Sure, it may never be as sleek as if Hedi Slimane got his hands on it, but on the plus side, most of the recruits would be able to fit into the uniforms without contracting cosmetic tuberculosis first.
