... ahhhnolllld, I think your brain terminated, lol. It no longer can claim ahhhhlll be back, ahhhlll ... Have a nice evening, Ahn., hastalavista.

I seem to have crawled under PCH's skin. Maybe myrna and PCH are the same?

I hate seeing pudgy endowed teens and 20+ wearing skin tight tank tops without bras.

Doesn't anyone look in the mirror anymore?

Why are so many women a 'slave to fashion?' Just because it looks good on one person, DOES NOT mean the general public should wear it.

How many here are telling lies? Where do you all really live.
And let us not know anyone's state, city, please.(unless they want to do it for themselves.)

who is myrna??
All the women seem to dislike the Brittany and the whatever shows, types, how about the opposite?
The Lily Pilitzer, Talbots, safe dressers, the all black dressers.
And the ones who try to tell you not to wear this and that or the length of your hair. I could care less what anyone wears as long as they are nice,
kind, respectful and FUN!

people with no sense of humor..who think they're above this thread..but respond to it anyway, instead of ignoring it..i guess they're not quite above it after all.

this must be myrna?

I thought the point of Talbot's, all-black and Pulitzer was to avoid the tackiness of passing fads including the everything-goes-as-long-as-it's-tight fashions of the current moment. You might get me to agree with dumpy, frumpy, boring, late-middle-aged, but tackiness has to suggest something low-class or no-class. I don't think "trailer-trash" shop at Talbot's.

Knee-highs and Naturalizer pumps with a miniskirt? Now that's tacky!

I agree, how about socks with hi heels? I actually saw that today.

Ohhh, I just remembered a Tacky sighting from our holiday in Montreal!
Having lunch in a really nice place, mostly business types talking and eating, very nice atmosphere. Behind us ( Thank goodness)was a large hairy but bald man wearing one of those tee shirts with straps..and shorts. Eating lunch with his child. Even if he had been in good shape and not so flabby, it just is so Tacky to go to a restaurant in what is basically your underwear

How about when you open a door for someone and they say nothing to you in return. Complete lack of class.

People who lie...and do it so much that they don't even realize it anymore.

People who say, "look a dog" when I walk by with my service dog, like they've never seen a dog before.

People who don't dress their age/weight.

Parking in handicapped spaces without a plackard.

Wal-mart parenting. (Letting your child run around a store/resturant disturbing others/knocking things down and not stopping them)

Not asking for directions when lost. (ok, maybe not tacky, but annoying)

Women with rings on every finger.

People who don't use tongs when getting food from a salad bar, buffet, etc. GROSS!

People who have to be right, even when they're wrong.

Speedo anywhere other than a swim or dive meet.

salad bars, buffets.

Tacky?

People in retail stores who have somehow come to believe that they are actually in a Middle Easter bazaar, and that by haggling they can bring down the price of any given item. I'm sorry, but if the hardcover novel is marked $24.95, that's what you're going to pay unless you've got coupons or a discount card. Deal with it.

Tacky?

People who continue to ask for discounts on the price of their hotel room after you've already told them your best price. "Best price" means just that. It ain't goin' no lower. If you don't want to pay for a hotel room, you shouldn't travel.

Tacky?

People who are outraged to hear the price of a given hotel room, never mind the fact that you've got one of maybe three hotel rooms in the city still up for grabs and there are hundreds of carloads of tourists in need of lodging circling the parking lot like hungry sharks waiting for their chance to claim it if you're too dumb to take it when you've got the chance.

Tacky?

People outraged to learn the price of a hotel room on a Friday or Saturday night in high tourist season who tell you in an indignant tone of voice how just last night they stayed in a Ritz Carlton or whatever in Florida or Charleston or wherever for $1.85 after tax, or some other ridiculous and blatantly false low price. If you'd like to make the six hour drive back to Charleston, or the ten hour drive back to Florida to get that rate, feel free, but you if you stay here you're paying our rate.

Tacky?

People outraged over the price of a hotel room in high season here in Asheville, NC who, when you explain that tourist season is the reason the rates are high, look at you with a vague, befuddled expression normally associated with fish, and exclaim, "Tourist season?! What's there to see around here?" -- in a tone of voice that suggests this region is the source of everything unpleasant that you've ever stepped in. We're tempted to say, "Well, according to the last statistics we had 6.5 million tourists visiting the region this past summer and we can't figure out why. There's absolutely nothing to see here. Nothing whatsoever but they keep coming. We haven't the faintest idea why."

But then again, being sarcastic can be kind of tacky too, can't it?

Are you guys saying that being tacky is BAD??

uuhhhh-- Hilarious!!!

Tacky is:

a 65-70 yr old man riding a three-wheel bike on a Florida street wearing a Speedo, black nylon socks with sandals, and puffing on a fat stoggie. Just saw it last week.

Comeovers, particularly greasy ones - yucky,tacky, who do you think you are kidding. Just be balding - it looks sooo much better.
Children being allowed to stick their fingers into food at a buffet - makes me gag.

jmm, I laughed at your typo, picturing someone coming over to your place with that greasy lock across the forehead.
I know you meant comb. I do those typos alot.
