Mrs. Roosevelt had to endure a lot of pain due to her looks. Can’t we give it a rest?

Dog looks nothing like Eleanor Roosevelt. Dog looks the result of some really irresponsible breeding. which makes me feel sorry for it, not think “Oh, how cute.”

More than 200 posts and no one mentioned Thom Yorke? Seems that no one on CO is ever allowed to compare an animal's appearance to a human's without invoking the Wrath of Nuffs.

I was taken aback by the Eleanor R comparison. It was lengthy and it did bring back the old comments about her appearance. The comparison seemed so different from what I expected ot CO and I did find it distasteful. People do judge women by their looks and use this to try to put women in their “place” when they don’t like what the woman is doing. Hence we had slurs on Hillary Clinton’s looks( I’m no HC fan) because they felt hatred for her or were threatened by her. I understand tht many people don’t share my perception butI much prefer happy, funny or sweet pictures in CO.

I’m still thinking “pile of towels”, but then I did make a motivational poster from the “Laundry Blues” post a short while back. (LAUNDRY : Do it or be absorbed by the towels.)

And I am STILL chuckling over “She looks like my foot” and have been using “looks like my foot” to describe many things today. “Look at this spreadsheet – these numbers make no sense. The actuals look like my foot.” But I am weak to the words “foot” and also “pants”.

I’ve been sending friends a link to this all day. And I told my girlfriend: “You’re no Eleanor Roosevelt. I mean, you’re no good up against a wall, but fabulous in a bed.” Thanks BC in Toronto

I think, and partly because of gems in the nuffwar, this has been my favourite CO in weeks. Ehn!-tertaining, edjumacational, and adorable.

I’d say there’s more of a (STRIKING!!) resemblance to the Michelin Tire Man………..

Thank you, CO, for making my day. I laughed until I cried. Don’t understand the commentroversy, don’t see a problem. But that could just be my totally warped sense of humor.
