Loose Parts by Dave Blazek for August 10, 2021

Just spray some pesticide on them. Or fry them up.

Shoulder pads are back in. They’re ugly.

Ding, ding, ding.

Would rather play whack-a-mole instead with them.

I liked bell bottoms.

I miss my elephant bells. Strangers would admire them.

Those pants he’s wearing won’t be popular here. That’s where the mosquitos and no-see-ums hang out. I get ten times as many bites/stings below the knee as above when wearing regular shorts.

by the time bell bottoms came back the first time… I couldn’t get into them any longer

Reason number 12 why I am glad I’m not a girl. Except for some ties (which if I hang onto long enough will be the correct width), none of my clothing has gone out of style for the past 50 years.

OK, I have to admit, I did ditch my polyester leisure suit.

Long live bell bottomed hip huggers, and the lovely hippy chicks who wore them!

Brood X

Can I get my leisure suit out of mothballs now?

It’s enough to make DDT popular again.

I see that masks are coming back in fashion. What is this – the fourth Semiannual Historical Covid Pandemic re-enactment? Are we slow learners or what?!!!

If you wore a fashion like bell bottoms, the general rule is that if that style comes back, you shouldn’t wear it because you are now too old. Don’t kill the messenger – I am just repeating what I have read. I also have broken the rule myself, but not over bell bottoms.

Shades of Motel Hell.
