If we rig Ashland's pantyhouse with Gemini's spanx, that'd make a kickass slingshot. With my back fat as ammo....
Any seconds?

Okay, I lied about the balls. I did tell a friend the other day that "I must have had big balls to ride that big bike all the way around the lake!" I miss that woman...
I don't miss pantyhose! Haven't had any on in decades! I now wear knee highs because ALL of my dresses are at least to the bottom of my knees!!! ahahahahahhaaa you guys are making me smile! Knock it off! I have an attorney appointment this morning! I don't want to go! I HATE THIS NEVER ENDING DIVORCE!
Many of the kiddos came up and petted my legs. They were fascinated and wanted to know what I had on my legs!!!
I guess young women don't wear pantyhose much anymore!
I am in my 50s.
I posted this actually about pantyhose and not so much things I hate...That would be another pet peeve list longer than a school bus. Haha.
Well, something I was thinking in the waiting room yesterday is that whoever invented pantyhose surely didn't wear them! You know what? Because of my curiosity about life that won't quit, I looked it up.
I actually went to this museum in Pennsylvania, Dupont, but it's where things like nylon and gun powder came from. Nylon was made and used in the wars for whatevers and eventualy they decided maybe it could be clothing!? A bunch of men!
I've never got the "hose" part, because we don't have anywhere to put...or squirt...water from?, nor is there a handle to turn!
My biggest beef is the toes and my smaller beef that they go crooked lol, so a lot of my time yesterday was spent in that capacity and looking around at how other women in the waiting room handled their feet, esp with it getting hot out.
I actually said to my lawyer, "where's your panty hose?" and she said, "I don't spend money on that anymore!
Yes, I too am guilty of the knee high thing but alas, it is not foolproof as some of us and Mrs. Doubtfire know--they don't all stay up!
One day during a music performance, I had one of my long skirts on (that I declined and chose a short one for court!), one went Phewp! and the saving grace was sitting on a piano bench and my legs were under and it was a piano with a cabinet underneath you could kind of hide.
It took some of the heat off the court appearance to think of other things and thanks, everybody. I was thinking on the way home, it would be something many ladies can relate to.
That was one of my first favorite things about moving to Southern California, you don't see a lot of panty hose out here. Even in more formal settings.
Of course, with blinding white winter legs there is a definite need for self tanning cream in spring/summer.
I wear closed toe heels and dresses to work all the time. In the summer, I use those shoe liners (or baby socks as I like to call them)that generally come in nude or black. I love to wear tights in the winter because they're more durable and much less constricting than pantyhose.
