He always looked appropriate, but he didn't stand out in any way, but as a COUPLE, they were noticeable because of how she was dressed. Short flouncy little skirts, low cut tops, fishnet stockings, high heels, lots of sequins.

Looking back on it now...I'm thinking maybe she was a cocktail waitress somewhere, and her man would pick her up, and they'd stop for a donut and coffee to unwind a little.
My first thought was hooker and pimp.

Back in the 70's when we were in high school, for kicks, we'd drive downtown to watch them. Back then the pimps wore bright colored leisure suits and matching hats and drove Cadillacs. They'd hang out at the pizza shop. The hookers would walk around that block.

I can't believe we did that.

I can’t stand her. She will probably die before the age of 50 from diabetes because her “big girl fan base” is so large, she will never be able to lose weight and still be popular. She has absolutely no class, big or skinny.

Yep. And who would have guessed that one day we would live in a society where fattyness is celebrated by many, and one could get fame and fortune just for being a barely-talented fats?

Soooo, this is going to seem weird but when I was growing up my grandmother would load up a bunch of us and we would literally count hookers in Waikiki and at times on Hotel street (very seedy).

Then as a teenager my friends and would walk around and count them. Later, when we were stationed back to Hawaii DH and I took our kids (and sometimes my sister's kids) hooker counting.

It wasn't just my family, so many of the people I grew up with did the same thing.

She probably does more cardio than you in a week, than you do a month. As far as being classy; I don't know her like that, but given the alegations on her fat shaming her dancers, probably not very classy.

Uhh...I do 1 1/2 hours of cardio a day. Her heart is working overtime while she stands still, so I can imagine it is working triple overtime for her.

This popped up in an ad, I shop at Kohls sometimes but this would not be something that is targeted at me. Don't know if trashy or just too much body positivity but I don't like it.

I live in Florida, too many to count. A trip to Walmart is usually rife with examples, and in my opinion begs for an observation deck.
