Don't hear that expression used as much these days as it used to be,
in the sense of 'oh damn!' and I suppose 'oh fuck!' But I still use it
now and again and did the other day when I was cutting the annoying labels out of a pair of M&S knickers and caught the material with the
scissors. It caused a small hole which will easily become a big hole
because the material is wispy so I suppose I'll discard them after I've
shown P what a hassle it is cutting labels out.
Why show my husband? Well not because I'm proud of cutting holes in
knickers but as it was he who asked me to remove the labels, and has
done the same with innumerable pairs of knickers over the years. He says
labels are unsightly and spoil the contour of the knickers, especially
the M&S ones where they seem to shove three labels together, one
with their name another with washing instructions and another their
origin. He's probably right they are a bit ugly sometimes, but from my
own point of view it's more about the wearing and whether they itch or
not. These ones didn't as it happens but I have to admit the labels
could be a bit less obvious and perhaps in a material more sympathetic
with the garment. P says they're unsexy.
Well these particular knickers are certainly unsexy now because they've
got a hole midway along the rear waistband. He'll probably spank me for
it (please), wasting his time with trivia and spoiling the knickers too
but I have to show him I tried:)
But seriously, you'd think manufacturers could do better than making a
feminine and personal garment using delicate materials often intended to
be sensuous....and then plonking a cluster of business-like labels on
them.
Ah well. Maybe I'll ask him to do it next time. Some chance.
Have a fun weekend.
