Women of all shapes, sizes, ages and income brackets have fawned over me with the Chicago’s green river a St. Paddy’s tradition shirt Also,I will get this same line, “Well, you can pull it off!”. I receive that boring observation as a backhanded compliment. They’re acknowledging that I look fabulous in a way that never would have occurred to them, while halfway thinking I’m a fucking freak for going out of the house looking like that. They’re exposing their dull lives, then running off to Starbucks’s to sulk. They lie in bed at night wondering what their lives might look like if they ever did anything out of the ordinary. Perhaps you’re wondering where all this anger is coming from? Simply from my having to stand there wearing what should have been willingly handed to me, as much as it screamed my name, while these suburban housewives with more money than god kept trying to convince me how good I looked, to talk me into buying it, as though all I was missing was a little confidence.
