Overheard at a café this afternoon:
Woman 1: “She spent $15,000 on underwear*.”
Woman 2: “Well, let’s just see if that gets her a boyfriend.”
The woman at the next table, which was completely empty other than a bottle of gold nailpolish, painted her nails serenely, as if she hadn’t heard a word. Maybe she just has way better manners than I do and doesn’t eavesdrop. I love to. They say listeners hear no good of themselves, but the fun of eavesdropping is that they’re hardly ever talking about you. Unless you’re rich and/or famous, in which case, what else did you expect?
*Surely when underwear is that expensive, it rates being called lingerie.

That’s a lot of money. I could buy a whole wardrobe, and still have money left over to buy dinner!

I agree, that rates being called lingerie!

That rates being called insanity!

I’m guessing you’re not talking about grannie panties from JC Penneys, right?
