yellow suits with pocket hanker-chiefs
I'm behind on my blog reading b/c I had a hearing today (my last of the semester). But I just checked Mrs. Finding Normal's blog, and yes, I have to say that what I saw on TV the other day was positively disturbing. I got a call in the middle of the afternoon this past Sunday from a good friend, and so of course I answered the phone. She said she saw something on TV that defied description, that absolutely must be talked about and so would I turn to ABC before her face melted off for the horror? So I did, and it was, my friends, as she has said.
Midgets. In. Matching. Shirts. Selling. A. Real. Estate. Scheme.
I have never seen such a thing in my life. I consider myself accepting, but it was hard to understand these people utilizing their small size in such a way. It was just strange. And scary. I would not have believed it if I hadn't seen it. Which must be why Mrs. Finding Normal, with her husband out of town and her dog unable to explain the true horror to curious third parties, had to call someone. It was just that weird.
The shirts were yellow, with suits. Then they wore something else, I think red with jeans? But it was the yellow with suits, it was that combo that got me.
I don't know what to say. I just wanted you to know that this is true, and scary, and real and true.
Watch out. If you are watching ABC and you see midgets with real estate, I'd say change the channel. Not because they are little people, not because it's real estate, but because the blatant self-exploitation is too much to bear.
