queer and loathing

Musical Stuff.

Guess who I saw the other night, for free?
Well, no… Styx.

Now some Daft Punk. Just wait till about :50 It’s worth it, in some completely worthless kind of way.

I really didn’t need to see that

Last night (ok, 5:15 this morning) I was sitting in Lafitte’s talking to the new bartender when all of a sudden he stops me mid-sentence and points out the front door.

He was, of course, pointing towards the completely buck-assed neckid woman casually walking down Bourbon street. She was probably in her mid-twenties, she had a nice body and didn’t seem intoxicated or anything. There was nothing out of the ordinary except that you know, she was completely naked. I mean not a stitch of clothing; no shoes even.

Not even a hat.

Only in New Orleans.

UPDATED news item

Man Stabbed In Neck, Shoulder On Bourbon St.

They left out one piece of information in this article. The two men were in full on drag transsexuals.

I also heard the stabbie died a few days later and that the stabber was indeed caught. Whew!

she was shot, buy our clothes.

I don’t quite understand this advertisement for American Apparel. It’s titled “When I was little, I was in the Korean Circus” which is a little ’so who cares?’ but then you read the fine print and feel bad: “Kyung, 23 years old, was shot recently in Paris. An American Apparel creative/retail employee, she’s seen here wearing our T-Shirt Leotard with the Opaque Pantyhose.”

Um, what?

There’s no mention of say, donating part of the proceeds of any any Opaque Pantyhose, T-Shirt Leotards, or zig-zaggy gold lamé headbands sold in July to help pay her medical bills or perhaps whether or not Kyung even survived the shooting. There’s no mention of ANYTHING other than she was shot and that she dressed like an extra from Flashdance.

What is the point of this ad and why does it just seem exploitative?

WTF?
