This 1950's home; the REAL 1950s

04.11.14

 It really has been too long. That's a phrase that was very popular in the 1950s, but in the case of the home of a certain 96-year-old-woman, it's gone beyond too long, back into the realm of campy, and now it's downright fucking cool.
 The link at the end of this article is of a house that has been completely kept up with authentic 1950s decor, and as long as you can't get enough of bright colors that make it look like noon when bathed in moonlight, then you are going to be floored by this shit!
 I don't know when the word 'floored' came to mean hypothetically being knocked off one's feet. I'm certain it was before the 1950s.
 Anyway, just look at this place. Personally, it made me long for a time where people covered up their bigotries, prejudices and alcoholism with pastels and "oriental" design. Where women still knew their place and pregnant teens were treated as though they donned the scarlet letter and were explained to others as victims of 'refer madness'.
 A time where kids could still deliver newspapers without parental consent because they were still too scared to tell their parents about the guy who says his house is made out of candy...from the inside. 
 A decade where free love got you nowhere. Unless you were a dude, then it got you a promotion. Women could only be secretaries, which was the style at the time.
 Finally, jello-molds. Everywhere. Fucking everywhere a goddamned jello-mold with fruit hidden like "treasure". Fruit is not a treasure it is a terrible necessity! \
 I don't like a lot of fruit.
 So please, enjoy this great thing guaranteed.....a 96-year-old woman's home, literally, from the 1950s.

Beyonce

04.01.2014

 I realize by the date you may assume that I'm foolin' you but indeed I am not.
 Who run the world? Girls.
 Who told us that? Beyonce.

 Unlike a lot of people, I didn't really need Beyonce to tell me that I rule the world; I kind of figured with the comments I get about my great ass and how all I've ever had to do was say "I want" and pretty much everything came to me; but it doesn't hurt to get that little extra ego boost from one of the sexiest, most powerful women in the world.

 Oh yeah, that Beyonce is a powerful woman. Jay-Z sure as hell couldn't stay away. Through all the gossip of their break-up, who came off as the biggest testes sack of them all? Oh my god, it was most definitely Jay-Z. Of all the woman at his "finger-tips", Beyonce was the one who broke every tip he poked at her, until he finally conceded that she was, in fact, the Queen and his lucky ass could only hope she'd keep him as her King. Lucky for that guy, she's also a smart business-woman (and loving, I'm sure. I just feel like she's a very loving woman, too, because you can be loving and hard as hell. Just ask me; I'll tell you).

 So today's article goes to Beyonce; a great thing/person guaranteed.
