The Pathetic Snowman

by anna at 12:38 PM on December 09, 2002

I'm just sitting here watching as my neighbor's snowman slowly melts away. 'Tis a rather pathetic specimen, essentially devoid of form or even appreciable contours---think Homer Simpson. A stick protrudes fom what passes for his head, presumably to represent a nose. No other facial features are evident. Perched at a jaunty angle atop said head is a bicycle helmet. Due to faulty construction, it stands askew like an old man with a wrenched back.

Lately I feel just like that pitiful snowman inexorably witherng away. It's a creping malaise, the etiology of which I can't quite put my finger on. Must be that damned Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD, get it?) Or else the knowledge that we've seen the last of Rosie nee McCall's magazine. I'll so miss its monthly glorification of all-things-Rosie.

Oh well, we've still got O.

Rosie shouldn't have quit her magazine. But, she should have lost it's nice gal image, just as she's done with her own image. I'd much rather see a monthly filled with crazy ramblings (I wonder if she talks to aliens, like another crazy lesbian), and flock of sea gull inspired beauty tips.

Your comment was nothing more than a shameless promo for a previous post. Sheesh!

Well, so long as you've broachd the topic of lesbians: Is it belaboring the obvious to assert that guys enjoy watching them go @ it more so than gals do gay guys bugger one another?

I think that would fall within the same realm as the study that proved that alcohol makes people seem more attractive to each other.

I believe the proper nomenclature in this hyper-sensitive social climate is "snow person."
Also, Oprah's magazine is almost as big a piece of shit as that ASSBAG Dr. Phil. Thanks for thrusting that chrome-domed quack on us, Oprah--I haven't forgotten that you are the one who spawned the Jerry Springers of the world. Sanctimonious bitch.
