My dog died this morning. I was dressed in work clothes at the time. When I came back home, I was a bit of an emotional wreck and managed to drop a glass of juice on my skirt. I went upstairs and put on my jim jam bottoms on as they were the first thing I came across. I couldn't be bothered to take my tshirt, cardigan or necklace off.

I also own a black towelling DeeGee, but I'm thinking of moving upmarket now I've found out it's chavvy. It's also covered in white cat fur, which isn't a terribly good look, I admit. Still, I suppose I only wear it if I'm ill.

Well look at you being all... 'Hey I'll ride the coat-tails of Thorn's joke and... oh... oh Thorn you evil bastard.'
Very sorry to hear about your dog Lilo. FWIW I thought pearls and pyjamas was quite a good look in a 'demented woman at the supermarket' kind of way.

Right. I see how this is working. This is why you were emailing those comments saying 'Here, post this one up. And this one. Here, and this one' instead of doing it yourself.

I'm just trying to score points. I'm that sleazy, turtle neck wearing villain in a romcom who comforts the love interest after the main character accidentally upsets them when a well meaning plan goes horribly wrong. Later on, I'll end up driving my shiny MG into a lake, and then some secretly recorded rant will be played at a public gathering, both exposing me for the evil bastard I am, and revealing just how generous, loving, and warm hearted you really are. In fact, it will be revealed that I'm just trying to get my hands on lilo's money so I can pay my gambling debts, and that actually, I can't stand her or her family or her kookie friend who never liked me anyway.

Has anyone else just caught themselves trying to work out how attractive Lilo might be, based on a photo of her wearing a leopard skin dressing gown over her work clothes and pyjama bottoms, with her head cut off from the neck up? I'm having difficulty getting a frame of reference.

Blame H1ppy:

It's not towelling on the outside, though, that'd be chavvy.

No, Ralph. It wasn't Jack. Jack's still alive. But he's very confused by the lack of Angel. He keeps searching the house, then flopping down in front of me, then searching the garden, then flopping down again and repeat repeat repeat.

Oh yeah. That would be wierd.
Misc...I thought you meant that black toweling in particular was chavvy. Whereas we all know that it belies a darkly complex character.

Thanks everyone. We can stop talking about it now, though. It's not a very interesting topic for you all. And wine is making me feel better. Lovely lovely red wine.

I'm not a fan of dressing gowns really, the only time i recall wearing one was at a posh hotel i stayed at for a christmas do. Me and a collegue made use of the hotel ones, refraining from wearing any sort of underpants. It was mildly liberating.
At home, i just use a towel should i need to parade around without getting dressed, or my new pyjama pants which are fully ace. They have 'Kapow', 'Blam' and other such words printed all over them.

I don't have pyjamas. When I was at university, I used to be quite jealous of my housemate's crisp grey M&S jammies, complete with a red trim and a crest on the pocket. In the midst of that hell, striding confidently downstairs in clean, ironed pj's was the equivalent of sipping malt whiskey and reading wordsworth while your imperial jungle settlement was being overrun and destroyed by drug crazed natives. Defiantly retaining dignity and Britishness as the chaos swallows all.

This is harsh. Sure Leader of the Gang wasn't the best song ever, but if Paul McCartney can be forgiven for Mull of Kintyre, I don't see any problem with Glitter coming back.

I lied a bit there, it's only got a few posts, but the suggestions so far are that someone would bite off his nose and put the bloodied tip into his bottom and another suggests we should forcefully tattoo him with the info that he's a paedophile and that he's inviting us to kill him because of it.
