The rise of the bent appendage. 12/02/2009
![]() By The Urban Athlete The first place I saw this bizarre phenomenon was on Paris Hilton. A seemingly healthy (enough) woman posing as a woman with a birth defect. More commonly known as "Pigeon Toe", she twists one of her feet in while posing for publicity shots. Why? Well in her situation I can see it's merits. It's the only way I can see a person with horse features looking demure. But what about all these normal women impersonating a cripple? This is sweeping the globe. It's not limited the female population either. The EMO male has a fair bit to answer for too! Not too long ago, if you saw a bunch of single, young, guys all out at a bar, not too long later & you would see a few smiling girls buzzing around having a chat or at least squeezing a free drink out of them. This is over. You now have your early 20's male bending down in a scoliosis pose. Crying to his mates that he caught a virus when he downloaded the new track " Hey dude, where did you find a size xxs cardigan in a man's style during Summer." Not a female to be found near these scrawny water downing boys, that look homeless & depressed. They all huddle together so that the breeze from the 20 year old females yelling & shrieking & kissing each other from across the room, doesn't knock down their lettuce leaf munching physiques. But wait, I saw one buff looking male, walking along without a bent neck or spine. Oh wait, ..No, on the back of this tough looking dude's tracksuit, was New wave style stars in fluro colours. Hmmn. I really think someone should have alerted the kids that the first time new wave trackies were fashionable, they were strictly for teenagers only... on roller-skates in the park, not something you wear out a night. One good thing comes out of this peculiar behavior. Without the 20 somethings drinking, something with some kilojoules & mingling with the opposite sex, there will be a decline in population. That's got to help this nation's carbon foot print. |
