Sing to me, O Muse, the cause of
a squeaky bra on the day I
presented my pimped-out PowerPoint
of which I was once so proud.
Not pearls, heels nor shaky laser pen
could take the attention from
these blushing cheeks
as each step bore the betrayal of creak
and squeak.
O, bra most exquisite!
What awkwardness thou hast provided
whilst supporting my superior bosom.
Continue not this costly crime against me,
for our intimate time
together has been not long
and I do not know if you can be fixed with WD-40.

Nice lament, AND nice bra! Did you discover what caused it to squeak like that?

Why thank you. I don’t know why is squeaks, nor do I know how to fix it. I guess I should google it!

Maybe The Girls were feeling neglected, what with all the work you were doing on the Power Point presentation, and they wanted to be noticed.
I bet they were so proud. 😉

I agree. That’s why my one word for her was ‘exciting.’ I live vicariously through her. And through her bras.

I have definitely had a squeaky bra – but not during a PowerPoint presentation. It’s funny, but I feel for you, because it’s not a little sound. 🙂

Haha! I dislike clothing giving off any kind of sound . They take away from the effort you put in getting dressed. Also, it’s like you’re the belled cat. Nothing you do is a secret.
Nice bra BTW!

Go bra-less is my recommendation. Might not help you when doing presentations though. Then again, maybe…

. Designers are only a part of their own consumer base. Trying to force your disegn ideas on others, just because you think it is what they Should want is setting oneself up to fail. I understand that they thought that these new consumers would join the normal middle class, but the disegners did not take into account the social-economic situation that brought the new influx. Perhaps more is better is not the most accurate title. Perhaps it should be: More of the Same is Better. Though they now had increased buying power, their views on what wealth and luxury were were influenced by their upbringings. They like detailed and intricate. Designers thought they would be interested in simple and elegant. When proven wrong they refused to change.Perhaps it is not right to bring Apple into the discussion, but as a group that HAS influenced trends, they also do a terrible job of looking out for their consumers. People want adobe flash capability. Apple says NO! just because its not their product and it reduces battery life. People want what people want, even if we think that it might not be the best thing. Companies like Google then take advantage. This is paralleled with companies like Frigidaire in this story. The question I ask is: when do we truly know better and when should we just let the consumer have their way?
