Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know this awful, but the one good thing about the finding of Chandra Levy's body and subsequent saturation news coverage is that it'll keep the press from doing other things than printing every supposed terrorist threat the administration keeps on pulling out of their asses. Christ almighty. The administration is starting to sound like local newscasters that try and scare people into watching their news shows by trotting out overly excited geologists. You know, the one's who say things like "we're 50% sure that there'll be a major earthquake in California in the next 50 years." Well, fucking duh.

And saw this story about Abercrombie & Fitch being at it again. They were the company that got in trouble a couple of months ago for having t-shirts that were completely offensive towards Asians.

This time, they're in trouble for trying to sell thongs to 10 year old girls.

From the story:
For the second time in two months, retailer Abercrombie & Fitch Inc. finds itself in trouble, this time for hawking sexually suggestive thong underwear to young girls.

The thongs are adorned with the images of cherries and candy hearts and also include the words "kiss me" and "wink, wink." They are appropriate for girls as young as 10 years old, according to a company spokesman.

"It's not appropriate for a 7-year-old, but it is appropriate for a 10-year- old," said spokesman Hampton Carney. "Once you get about 10, you start to care about your underwear, and you start to care about your clothes."

What the fuck are they drinking during their business meetings? Who comes up with that? Maybe the FBI should be monitoring all of Abercrombie & Fitchs executives e-mails to see whether they're the one's tricking 13-year old girls into having sex with them.

Why is thong underwear okay for ten year olds, but not seven year olds. And ick on the whole idea of ten year old's wearing thongs. Especially with the words "kiss me" written on the thong's crotch. Then again, I'm not a Catholic Priest.

I do, however, find it kind of amusing that my 63 year old, way way out of pop-culture, dad is about to have to deal with all of these issues with my baby-sis. But still.

Ick.
