Found just up the street from one of my favorite breakfast places. And no, I wasn't shopping.
It does lead one to wonder just how pricey and ugly that bling is.

Hey, this jewelry isn't just plain old gorgeous, it's "Georgeous" - are they making some terrible terrible pun? Is it such attractive jewelry that even guys named George feel pretty when wearing it? Some veiled reference to the Go Fug Yourself girls' Intern George??
now I want to open a jewelry shop just so I can put signs in the windows saying everything's "georgeous" and "juanderful" (with unnecessary quotation marks, natch).
Please send your submissions via email to bethanykeeley (at) gmail.com. I look at them all, but it might take a while to get to yours -- sorry! I love you all, but I only have so much energy in a day.
If you want your picture to make the blog DO NOT @tweet them, or leave them in a comment. I need them all in the same place. Make sure your emails are easily distinguishable from spam or viruses (I use gmail web interface, so images get previews).
I don't usually post the following: newspaper headlines, personal email, craigslist postings, unprofessional websites. I also tend to not crosspost things from other blogs, since I have so much unique material waiting for me to get to it.
Things I see a lot: silica gel "do not eat"; hair dryer labels; inside the bus "do not drill"; Wal-mart sign about IDs; coffee machine with "2" cup sizes; employees must "wash hands"; that failblog post.

Yeah, but is it Juan-derful?
Anonymous @ 2:18, I heart you.
Husband always says that if someone has to make a point of telling you how great they are, they are almost assuredly NOT.
just how i like my women. no wait, I'M a girl.
and i'm not sure what the GFY girls have to do with this, but i heart them.
Maybe it's a bizarre Presidents' Day promotion:
"Buy our jewelry! George Washington would! It's Georgeous!"
now I want to open a jewelry shop just so I can put signs in the windows saying everything's "georgeous" and "juanderful" (with unnecessary quotation marks, natch).
I think I'd call it "Juliary"
I never knew there were so many damn ways to make a name into an adjective!

They are numerous and hysterical. I only wish I was that clever.
When people use quote marks in this way, I always think of them as quoting a customer, like 'hey, look what someone said about us!' :)
Maybe it's jewelry George of the Jungle would appreciate... elephant tusk necklaces and the like.
Dunno, but it's Meg-nificent.
