VeraMaria Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 Horrible. Sick. Horrible. Disgusting. And take this from a teen in the middle of high school!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donna Posted September 10, 2003 Share Posted September 10, 2003 Blue Rose, your post is so very sad, and on the money, I reckon, with one exception: those males who practice "custody of the eyes". It is impossible to not see some of this stuff some of the time...or hear it, or read it. It is more necessary than ever to consecrate our senses to our Blessed Lady. But take heart. Pagan Rome (I keep thinking) had to be really bad, too. Our Lord meant it: we have to avoid the ocassion of sin. If we are faithful in practicing the faith and keeping the Commandments, we have good hope God will preserve our faith in the increasing number of necssary ocassions of sin. Please...don't anyone go back to Abercrombie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatrickRitaMichael Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Yeah, Abercromie is evil. I was a deskie for my dorm a couple of years ago and I had to sort mail and I was putting away this magazine called "A and F" wrapped in plastic w/ a warning that it was inappropriate for people under some age, or some warning that made me think that someone is getting porn! I mentioned this to my friend and he was like, it was the Abercrombie and Fitch catalogue -- it's so bad that they can't mail it out w/o a wrapper and you have to be over 18 to get it b/c it has such enlightening articles such as, "how to have sex in a twin bed when you're living in the dorms." Remember that when you shop there -- this is what you're supporting! But, there is hope for stuff like the JCPenny shirt. Abercrombie sold a shirt that was offensive to Asian people and so many people complained that they pulled it. So you should complain, you have a right to, and remember -- MONEY TALKS! I am a firm believer in protest and it seems that these days the only way that people listen is when you protest w/ your money. So now I only shop at Goodwill -- it's cheap and I can actually find pantaloons that don't show my butt when I bend down to pick something up If I ever have kids we are moving to Alaska so that all they can wear is parkas and won't want to be scandalous for fear of freezing to death!

BLAZEr Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 Yes... that is totally sexual. Thank the luther, calvin, knox, etc... for the degradation of morals. God Bless, ironmonk this made me laugh . . . It reminds me of a joke we used to have in my house in college. Anytime anything bad every happened: a broken pipe, locked out of a car, dinner burned, we would all say "It's the damned contraceptive mentality!" Lol . . . often we could make a really good argument as to why Contraception and teh contraceptive mentality had caused our problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frozencell Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 While we're at it we might as well write complaints to Gadzooks, too, as they are one of the premier purveyors of this type of clothing ( and the Playboy clothing line, too.).

I couldn't agree more with everything in this post. BRAVO!!!!! And me and my wife LOVE Goodwill! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Red Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 i'm sorry, i can't stand Goodwill. At least not the one in my city.The managers there are extremely mean to the mentally ill people there, plus it's just not a pleasant place to shop. It is probably different where you guys are at.
