kid you gotta get a gimmick

Kate has made my morning.

Am I the only one trying to figure out just what the fuck NonSociety.com is (besides one big ego circle jerk for three hot chicks with mediocre minds)?

Meh, I think I just nailed it.

NonSociety embarasses me as a woman and a feminist. I’m completely serious. It drives me nuts that this self-important twattle from twats will simply feed Internet misogynist’s flames and make sane, normal women look suspect.

(Also: Who is their target demographic? If it’s straight women, they’re missing the mark. Most straight women I know don’t care to look at women with skank weaves flaunt how GREAT and FABULOUS their lives are. Is it straight men? They should show more tetas, because men don’t care to read fashion prattle, they’ll just want to see nips. How do they plan on making money with this, exactly? WTF?)

Actually, if MR + MA + JA are banking on women like me to view their website and be horrified, they just might laugh all the way to the fucking bank.

i believe the phrase, ‘you gotta get a gimmick’ has never been more apropos.

or as sondheim put it - get yourself a gimmick and you to can be a star.
