Welcome to Snarkfest

Welcome to my snarky corner of the web. Join me as I discuss everything from wine to chocolate. There may be a few other topics mixed in there too. I talk a bunch about my amazing offspring, 24 and 21. I sometimes go on and on about my secret crush on the amazing Mike Rowe. I talk about things that irritate me or things that make me happy. Sometimes I just talk to hear myself talk. Feedback is always appreciated but please make sure it's respectable. No nudity or profanity. I'm the only one allowed to be profane. But any and all snark is welcome and appreciated!

Tirade Tuesday...one day late.

I'm going to start off today's blog post with a request. Please do NOT shop at Abercrombie and Fitch. By now, I'm sure all 3 of you kind and dedicated Snarklings have read this article about how the CEO of the company is a fucking asshole. If you haven't, by all means, go read it. I'll wait.

Now that you've seen what a douchebag he is, have a look at his ugly, plastic-surgery-enhanced face:

How dare he??? This guy makes Ron Perlman look like George Clooney. Seriously, how fucking DARE he? I hate him and all that he stands for. Anything over a size 10 is too fat to shop at his stores?? Who in the world does he think he is?? Oh there aren't enough insulting names on the planet for this twatwaffle. Suffice it to say, I hope he loses his job, his wife runs away with the CEO of Lane Bryant, his dog gets bitten by a rabid raccoon, then bites him and he gets rabies, then his penis falls off, followed by a fatal case of chicken pox. Aside from that, I wish him nothing but the best.

Much has been said, written, blogged, screamed or spoken about this fucktard so I'm not going to go on. I COULD, because that's how mad I was when I read what he had the audacity to say, but I'm going to end it here and hope that his sales plummet, his stores all go out of business and he's sued by every employee he has, and that he ends up penniless on the street, pushing a shopping cart from Piggly Wiggly around all day wearing a bathrobe and mismatched slippers, collecting cans for recycling to try to scrape together enough money for another Botox injection.

But I'm not bitter.

  1. tell us how you really feel!! I agree, that is terrible. It's one thing to not carry large sizes, but another to be blatantly crude about not wanting the "non-beautiful" to tarnish his clothing line!!! Definitley a major jerkward! I tweeted the article and will post it on facebook as well!

    1. Thanks Eva. This guy had some giant balls to come out and say the things he did. I hope it shows in the company's sales.

  2. The guy obviously has some kind of issues, have you read this article about him? http://abcnews.go.com/US/lawsuit-outlines-abercrombie-fitchs-ceo-michael-jeffries-rules/story?id=17519006#.UYmaxcqt_QQ

    Yes, I agree that he needs a swift kick in the dingle dangles. What I'm more concerned about is the people who read about him or hear about this BS on the radio/TV and then still choose to shop at his stores. As if they agree that people over a size 10 can't be attractive or "cool".

    1. That's what's most disturbing, Jules. He made those comments in 2006 and the company is still thriving. It's disgusting.

  3. "Twatwaffle" is now my new favorite word. :)

  4. I'm so glad my kids never wanted to wear his over priced clothes. I can't even walk past the damn store without having a sneezing attack. I sure as hell won't go in there. He wouldn't appreciate my yoga pants anyway. What a douche nozzle.

    BTW, just finished the book. Kids and Cleaning was hilarious and I can totally relate. Thanks for putting it all in perspective so I can laugh instead of choking the little buggers!

    1. I'm glad you enjoyed it! And I'm glad too that my girls have no interest in their clothes.

  5. Oh my word. Just read your post and had a look at the link. All I can say is that, when you are very young and a size minus 0 you think you're IT (means something special) nothing else matters.

    But one day the weight automatically piles on despite your attempts to get rid of it. Wrinkles start to indent your face, cellulite tells you it is not leaving no matter how many times you slap it. Grey hairs come out for a fight and no amount of plucking or coloring will deter these fearless things.
    Something called 'menopause' kicks in and you have no choice and it attacks male and female alike.

    He only gets to be where he is today because WE have allowed it.

    I always believe that we have a choice in life and can vote with our feet.

    1. I know all too well. Hell, I was a size 8 2 years ago and wouldn't even think about setting foot in any of his stores.

  6. I am just all kinds of fired up after reading this. I love how my beautiful daughter runs around without a care in the world and doesn't give a thought to how her body looks. I know all to well, having struggled with eating disorders through high school, college and beyond, that a girls body image can wreck havoc on their emotional health. He is the epitome of what is wrong with society that makes our beautiful girls question thier worth if they can't wear a certain kind of clothes.
    Fuck. Him.
    like i said. Fired. Up.

    1. I hear you and totally agree! Is it any wonder, with shitheads like him, that girls have such low self-esteem and poor body image? Ridiculous.

  7. ^^^ From My Special Kind of Crazy ^^^: "He is the epitome of what is wrong with society that makes our beautiful girls question thier worth if they can't wear a certain kind of clothes."

    He makes me sick.

  8. As much as I tried no description I came up with is as good as Twatwaffle. It will be my new favorite insult. I am so with you on this. So so with you!

  9. Agreed. And anyway, if I want shitty sweatpants, can't I just get them at Target and save myself the house music and the anorexic 16 year old greeting me at the door?

  10. Seriously...you owned that. I heard that and put all the A&F clothes my kids had into the Goodwill pile. (we didn't even buy them - they were given to us as hand me downs....) What an idiot! And like Meredith said - their quality sucks and if I want a migraine from the smell of the store and my daughters to receive sex education from a half naked person trying to sell CLOTHING - I can just poke myself in the eye and show the movie Fast Times at Ridgemount High.

    Twatwaffle. Snort. Snort. COffee out the nose. NEW FAVORITE WORD!

    Twatwaffle....bawahahahahahahaha!

    One more week and I get to meet you IRL!!!!!!! So excited!!!! Happy Mother's Day my friend!

  11. Pretty ridiculous comments coming from a man that fits his own descriptions. I have been seeing his comments all over the place - pretty disheartening. I won't be buying A & F for my granddaughters any more.

I do read all comments and try to respond to them. Unless you're trying to get me to visit your website: Cheap Louis Vuitton Bags. Then you can go pound sand.
