What is TACKY???

[FreshTressa]

What is something that you think of as totally tacky???


I hate giant hoop earrings........the ones that are like 18 inches in diameter and almost reach your shoulders. I saw some girls at the mall with them on.

Haven't yet seen this in Oregon, but in Philly ALL THE TIME .....

women with 3-inch long fingernails hopelessly trying to punch the keys of a cash register!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This I've seen in Oregon, but not back home in Philly


WEARING SOCKS WITH SANDALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :eek!:

 

[FreshTressa]

Speaking of nails.....

We were at this jack in the box one time and there was this lady working there with these hideous 4 inch long blue dirty fingernails. They were natural and not in good shape at all. I totally didn't want to eat there. I was thinking about saying something to the manager when she turns to hand us our food, I catch her nametag......and she WAS the manager. LOL


Gross fingernails are the worst!!

Yuk, those long nails give me the creeps too, particularly when someone is serving my food with them! I hate when they get so long that they sort of curl under. Eww, eww, eww!

I love those big hoop earrings though, and I'm glad they are coming back. I may just have to get a pair and be tacky!

 

[holycow]

I find belly shirts very tacky (sorry to all you style fans out there!)
I find looking at someone GUT just does nothing for me! and believe me when I say GUT and not "abs" LOL

Large hoop earrings and like three or four in each ear. Don't get me wrong I have my ears pierced three times in each ear but the earrings don't have to get bigger as they move up your ear lobe.

A tie that isnt long enough.

A man in a white, short-sleeved, thin material shirt with a necktie. Oh, I think that's the biggest turnoff! You can see right through his shirt and a necktie with a short-sleeved shirt is just WRONG!

I have to agree! In fact, whenever I see a poor guy dressed like that, I can't help but think he looks like a manager at a fast food restaurant. "Would you like to supersize that?"

Men who spit on the ground....It totally disgusts me!

 

[Evil Princess]

Socks with sandals, sandals with pantyhose...when will some of us ever learn?!?!

I hate large hoop earrings as well.

Drying varnish. Very tacky.

Anyone over the age of thirty wearing drooping pants with boxer shorts hanging out. Reminds me of exectives dressing in Michael Jackson red-leather captains jackets in the mid-80's.

Actually, let's just make that anyone at any age and add to it all the idiots who wear T-shirts inside out, roll up on pant leg, or wear visors upside down and backwards.

Actually, while I agree in principle, I have to remember back to when at age 18, I not only thought it was really cool to wear bell bottoms and grow my hear like Peter Frampton, I also thought everyone else thought I was cool because of it. We won't even get into polyester pants. But I figure by age 30, one no longer has the excuse of youth.

I don't mean to offend anyone here....so please don't flame me.

I think a front yard with a million lawn ornaments looks tacky!

ARG! I always swear I won't go scarcastic on threads that could be taken negative, but you just hit my hot button! The worst: Christmas. I love Christmas lights. I even put up more than DW wants. But we've got one of "those people" in the neighborhood that saw National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation and thinks Clark's house looked great. I can read by the lights from his house at 4 AM, and he lives half a mile away. So be it. But does he have to have two complete Santa's with sleigh, three different size manger scenes, and a blowup Frosty that stands 8 feet tall and is never, ever not drooping starting the day after he puts him up? I mean, I love Xmas, but....

 

[MosMom]

People who come over uninvited. I hate it. We have dogs that like to bark and babies that try to sleep. Not a good combination. So when someone hops over at naptime and sets the dogs off....I want to throttle them.

 

[RickinNYC]

Pat, that was incredibly rude and uncalled for. Perhaps that person is so full of the Christmas spirit that this is their way of expressing their feelings? Or maybe they have a large family and he's trying to meet the desires of each child? We all celebrate the holidays in different ways, some subtly, some in an explosion of lights. I, for one, invite everyone to set up klieg lights and point them at Pat's house as a statement against his rudeness.

You should be ashamed and hang your head in a dog like fashion. Ask for forgiveness from the DIS board members. Wail, cry and gnash your teeth. Shed a tear. Tear your clothes from your body. Tar and feather yourself. Deny yourself a day from the board. And then stick up your middle finger my way and say, "Back at ya baby!" ROFL!

To those that think I might be remotely serious, ummmmm.... nooooooo!!!!
