Two women NO RUDE ANSWERS

 

Have you ever noticed females both who are thin will never admit that the other one is skinnier then the other.  For example: Wendy is thin and so am I.  Everyone who ever comes in contact with tells me how skinny I am.  However, Wendy told me she thinks I am thin and between size 2 and 8. But never used the word skinny.

 

Here are the two reasons I am asking:

 

(1) Yesterday when I met Wendy at the thrift store she was looking at denim tops but the crappy kind. She goes to me that the tops that she tried on is swimming on her because she is very narrow. Every time I see her she keeps saying "But I am so narrow"I wanted to tell her that most tops she buys just fit or tight on her but I wont. Two weeks ago she purchased two skirts (straight) and they just fit her.


(2) Stacy: "Don't get mad at me, but you said you think I am tall and thin and between size 2 and 8"
Wendy:" Yes, I have something to ask you but you wont get insulted"
Stacy: "I don't think so"
Wendy: "My friend asked me if I wanted a few pairs of pants of hers
Stacy: "No thanks, but you think I am tall and thin and between size 2 and 8"
Wendy:" Yes and that is what the pants are"
Stacy: "Why what size are the pants"
Wendy: "No I am not telling you you said no for the pants so I will donate them. My friend told me she gained a few pounds and she wanted to know if I wanted the pants, but they are too long on me and a little big and you are in the middle"
Stacy: "But you think I am tall and thin and between size 2 and 8"
Wendy: For the 16 thousand time yes"

Are you sure these women aren't Tania and Peggy?

It sounds an awful lot like one of their conversations.

Why doesn't Stacy just tell Wendy to go find her own thrift store in which to shop?

Meanwhile, I think Wendy should tell Stacy that she has a few screws loose. Wendy needs to say the following:

"Stacy, nobody gives a rat's heinie what size you wear. You're thin. So what?

Frankly, my boyfriend was saying just the other day that you're too skinny. He said we should ask you to stand on our front porch for Halloween so we won't have to buy a new skeleton decoration.

So, why don't we agree not to go shopping together any more? You don't like what I buy and I think you're an anorexic freak - so let's try to save what's left of our friendship and find something else to talk about besides our clothes and what size we wear, okay?"

With any luck, Stacy will realize Wendy is right and the two of them will live happily, and frugally, for the rest of their lives.

Properly clothed, of course.

JK, you are way off base.  I know it really was Joanne and Rebecca.  I wonder what made you think it was Tania and Peggy?  WOW! I just realized that VP  DOES have  lots of friends; in addition to these four, there's  Barbara, Sandy, Mary, Doreen and Margaret.  And, the strange thing is that, in reading past posts,  they all seem to have the same problem with how thin they are and how they look in their clothes. How amazing!!!  Must be the part of the country they're from.  I think VP should probably ask Mom.  Don't you?  Couldn't hurt to have the opinion from somebody who ACTUALLY HAS SEEN THEM.   HEY, VP, HOW TALL ARE YOU? I mean, after all, if you want us to agree that you're really thin and tall, we really need to know all the facts.  Othewise, how do you expect us to give you the answers you are seeking.  Maybe that's why no one here agrees with you.  And, now for the question "Have you ever noticed females both  who are thin will never admit that the other one is skinnier than the other?"  I have a good idea VP, why don't you just admit that she is skinnier, and then you could have avoided this post.  Get some help!!!!!

This sounds like a skinny contest VP. Now I've seen a lot of contests between women, there was a mud wrestling contest, a halter top contest, a bathing suit contest, a wet T shirt contest (oh that was real fun, I was a judge) a volley ball contest and best of all there were these two girls who got down on their ... no, wait Gary, that was a different kind of competition entirely (sorry about that, sometimes I get all mixed up in these things) but a skinny contest??? Never happened so I can't help you with this one VP.

Hey not to change the subject but did you mail that letter yet? 

Note to URI, I play golf and tennis and I'll soon need some new shoes. I hear you're in the internet shoe sales business so do you have any good buys in Wilson (tennis) and Foot Joy (golf) shoes? I've checked all the local thrift stores in the Beaufort, Hilton Head, Savannah areas and they've got some great buys, but I can't find a thing in my size 12 D. Give me a good price and we can do some business. Since meeting VP I just hate buying new but sometimes there just isn't any choice so let me know.

URI, I think perhaps all of these women have run out of synonyms for 'skinny.'

Perhaps we should help them think of a few?

Thin, slim, slender, matchstick, toothpick, skeletal, death warmed over, tiny, little, petite, girlish, emaciated...

Care to add some others?

What is the deal with this chick and clothes?  What is this, like the 20th question about either clothes or her relationship with her mother . . . . . and what her mother thinks about her clothes?  Seriously, Voterperson, you need some help.  Really, Honey, you need to see someone who can help you to see that you are more than what you last bought at the thrift shop.

And here is a wonderful tutorial for those of us who may be clothing challenged.

P.S. URI, do you think that would be me? I do have 2 pair of jeans now out of necessity. My initial pair developed a rather large rip in the cheek, so I was forced to go shopping for a replacement pair.

I didn't shop at the thrift store, but I did get them at the discount department store. Do you suppose that counts?

VP You haven't answered yet--How tall are you?  I really need to know in order to tell if you are tall and svelt, bony, slight build, spindly, twiggy-like wiry, anorexic or cadaverous: Or medium build, or even slightly fat.

Gary, It must be the other URI93 that sells shoes on here, but I'm sure if you visit VP's thrift store, you could get your pick of shoes and socks, and  even shorts (just slightly used, of course). I can't find them in the thrift stores by me, so I have to buy new. Maybe she'll post the store so we can all visit when we're in her area. I'll start keeping my change so I have lots to spend.  And, now I even hate buying new at my stores.  I feel like I'm being screwed (without all the fun).

Skitch, nope not  twenty-something posts--more like 150.  Click her icon and read some of them.  Oh, never mind, just read the one above and you'll know what the other 149 are.  This lady seriously needs help,  She believes that she is perfectly rational (her words) and that we all are defined by the shape of our bodies and the clothes that we wear.  How sad! 

JK the video was very informative.  Now I know that I'll have to go there DAILY to get the good bargains.  And as for your jeans, you are VERY wasteful, JK! Why would you not just wear something like a pair of shorts under them, or better yet, wrap a sweat shirt around your butt and tie the arms in front at the waist.  That way, you could still wear them, and  I'm sure that nobody would notice.
