Thursday Thirteen #8
 |
I generally try to live by the "never say never" mantra, because you just never know, but at this very moment, I truly believe that I can honestly say I am as sure as I could possibly be (which is just only slightly less than 100%) that I will never wear... 1. Peach (the color) 2. Hot pink 3. Hot pants 4. Parachute pants 5. Animal prints 6. An argyle sweater 7. That fleece with the fuzzy stuff on the outside, or inside and out 8. A sports jersey 9. A wig 10. A wooly Russian hat with earflaps 11. A Davy Crockett coonskin cap 12. Saddle shoes 13. Cowboy boots *Disclaimer: Please do not be offended if you wear these things. I do not have anything against anyone who does. They're just not my style. Links to other Thursday Thirteens! |
The purpose of the meme is to get to know everyone who participates a little bit better every Thursday. Visiting fellow Thirteeners is encouraged! If you participate, leave the link to your Thirteen in others comments. It’s easy, and fun! Be sure to update your Thirteen with links that are left for you, as well!

I look good in peach! Not so much the hotpants.
Great list!
Not out in public but alone with your significant other....I bet he would be thrillled if you wore 5,11, and 13.....hehehe
Have a wonderful Thursday...
My list is up
Amen on the hot/parachute pants!
Happy TT!
More argyle sweaters for me! Yeah!
No worries about offending me...I wear peach--the fruit, not peach--the color.
My grandmother once wore one of those furry, Russian hats to our high school football game. I was mortified. It looked like it was a hideous hair style!
Great list!
So I wear (or have worn) #2, #6, #8, and #13. So now I hate you! Hee.
Excellent list, mine's up too!
And I like your header graphics.
Cool list. :) I can agree with all of them except the Sports Jersey. I love my hockey jerseys (I am Canadian after all. *Grin*)
There is something about hot pink which absolutely frightens me. As for hot pants and parachute pants: some things were better off left in the imaginations of people. No one needed those to be made. No one.
This list was great! I loved it! Happy Thursday to you, and feel free to visit mine as well if you get the chance. :)
Great list and great idea. I agree with all but one; I would totally wear a Twins jersey - especially if I could wear it around Champ's Cardinal's lovin' family!
The item that I would have added is thong underwear. I will NEVER EVER wear them!
My list is up... and I'm so tired my eyes are drooping...
If you can open my TT with IE it will work..Firefox does not like my blog..hahaha
Thanks for the visit!
What's wrong with argyle? Except that it screams 80s preppy?
4. Parachute pants
Oh man, I forgot all about these! Thanks for the flashback :)
Hi Geekwif--Just saw your comment at my blog--Oh! Your would love the tv series, Road to Avonlea if you loved the Anne of Green Gables mini-series!

I guess I need to make that I agree with all but two... I would SO (and have recently) worn hot pink. I love it, in fact.... I mean, how "blond girl" is pink, anyway?
oh wow! really?
i'm all about 2, 5, 6, 7, and 13. that's almost half your whole list. i wonder if i were to make a list how many YOU would have to point out as ones you wear....
ok, here goes.
i'd never wear:
1. a beige anything as a top (makes me look dead)
2. heels higher than 2" (ow!)
3. flip flops (toe wedgies)
3. wedges (i just don't understand this trend)
4. the kind of underwear that appears like a letter Y ABOVE the waistband of any pants. ew.
5. anything from abercrombie and fitch. (i disagree with their advertising policies, and refuse to support them)
6. nikes. they hurt my feet
7. a body piercing
8. tattoo
9. mohawk
10. one of those enormous sequined purses that will blind innocent bystanders on a sunny day.
11. 2 piece bikini, thong bottom. (i'm gagging a little just at the thought)
12. fingerless gloves, a la Madonna in the 80s
13. socks with individual toes, for style reasons. they itch.
i had to 'reach' a bit, since i tried not to use any of your 13. so humor me and tell me which of these you'd wear!
and can you tell i've missed your blog, and am making up for it here and now?!
Now that's a comment, HolyMama! This is going to be fun!
Let's see...
1. yes - wear it all the time - (That's the same reason I don't wear peach. It makes me look dead and green.)
2. no - I agree, OW!
3. yes, I guess - I own a pair, but rarely ever wear them.
4. no - ewwww
5. no - I completely agree.
6. no - but only because I've never tried them - I don't know why
7. yes, I would - I mean I don't have anything against having one, but I don't happen to have any.
8. yes - I don't have any, but I SO want one and hope to get it in the next year or so.
9. no! never!
10. no!
11. NOOO!!! - that is something I could never impose upon anyone. I'm just not that cruel!
12. nope
13. no - I've never tried them but they look so awfully uncomfortable.
So I guess that makes it 1, 3, 7, and 8 that I would wear. Only 4 out of 13, not bad, eh?
OK, I'm playing along with you both now, Geekwif and Holymama. I am completely on Homymama's side, with one exception. I want a tattoo. Other than that, anything beige above the waist is a no-no (they say your shirt should never match your hair!) and anything wedgie, thongie and stringie doesn't work. Gaudy stuff just isn't me. Ask Geekwif. I'm all about pink, cotton and styles that fit my figure. Oh, and pink bikinis, not thongs (again, pink and cotton - see a theme here?)
And I also completely agree with HolyMama that I am completely and TOTALLY missing you! Post already! .....

Oh, and Sweet Girl got her mail today. She was so excited and read all but two words herself (and those were easy words, too - funny thing, that). Her friend was there and watched her reading and said, "you read that all by yourself? I can't read like that!" SG was so proud and SO happy to get your letter. We'll sit down to write you soon. Not sure if we'll use the letter stationary you gave her; it came at the last moment before we moved and I still haven't uncovered it! That concerns me a bit since I've opened 'pret near all the boxes... but we will write with real paper and pen!
Now blog, darnit! :-)
