So I did my usual session from hell with TOD this morning (he's trying very hard to get me to buy more sessions, I am trying very hard to say no... either way tomorrow it's OVER!) and went and showered and changed as usual.
I got to the lab, and had coffee and some of my lunch while chatting to Luke and then moved upstairs to ask the school admin-staff about some issues I've been having, and to get to work in the alb upstairs (in my infinite wisdom I left my laptop at home today, so my desktop is seeing some use after a long holiday!). While we were standing in the office, a friend of mine took me aside and removed a sticker from my jeans. Yip, somehow it must have been floating around the change-rooms at the gym or something, but I've been advertising that my jeans are 'cleavage booster' all morning!
And I realised that I HATE the silly little stickers. I mean really, do they need to plaster the size/cut/cleavage booster properties all over everything? Surely you KNOW that a tank top from the pyjama section will have 'inbuilt support' (which basically doesn't support anything, but hey) why does it need a sticker? Because those stickers ALWAYS end up sticking to something they're not meant to and following you (or some poor stranger)a round for weeks...

Why do they do this to us?

Huh. Cleavage booster on the seat of your pants. I'm sure a number of people were amused by that.
I hate those "hidden support" tops. what lies. For anyone over a B cup they do not work. When I'm older I'm going to blame my body and it's problems on Woolworth's JT One tops!
I walked around with one of those 'checked by...' stickers for almost a day before I realised. which it was as nice as your sticker.
Sigh. I can't remember if read my post about the fly on my face, but that very same day I wore a new top, which I only wore for a second time a few days ago. And I found a size sticker on it. Which meant on the day of fly face I was also walking around with a sticker on my top and NOBODY told me. Bastards.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha, I have the same problem. Thankfully the stuff I buy never mentions cleavage support or anything or the kind, but the one that gets me is the long clear size tape. I always manage to get that wound around my arse, which is okay if it's mine as I'll have S or XS on show all day, if it is from something the Husbear bought it'll say XL or worse, and that's never a good look.
LOL, Oh Helen, you would have made several people's days, I'm quite sure!
Bwahahaha... Laughed at your sticker... then at Po's sticker...
I think I can top you both though... my friend bought me this weird necklace made out of nuts. On it there was a sticker saying "Hand crafted from nuts", which (of course) got stuck on my jersey.
It's only the truth though ;-)
Sid: I hope not too many people saw it! It was on my shin anyway, not on my butt (thank goodness!)
Skinnybitches: I know! They're totally useless! I find that JTs work ok, but I'm not really all that well-endowed...
Po: I remember that post! I actually thought of you when I found the sticker :) Can't believe you had a sticker as well! Maybe people thought it was a new trend and that you were expressing your artistic-ness?
Mutant: I know! I hate their magical properties of never staying thrown-away! Like I WANT to advertise my size to the world!
Kath: thanks :)
Tamara: We should start a society for people plagued by stickers! Yours is a good one!
Cleavage boosters!?
why?
I can't see the logic. why would a woman wear something to boost her cleavage. Has she no dignity? self confidence or... brains?
(i'm REALLY struggling with this concept...ARGH!HELP~!)
