which i'd've on the journals 'cept there's this rule against scarring the impressionable youngsters, so we're being good and keeping it "contained." tho i'm surprised. tres conservative, man. office dress code or what? i'd go for the eyebrows myself, but no way would that one fly here. also, like lorna needs anymore stuff she can yank me around by.

If we had a dress code, it would be for everyone to wear white bustier, and my falsies are only for special occasions not everyday work. I know it comes as a shock, and I swear I'm not evil/possessed/clone/from the future/alien/alternate timeline where I accidentally killed my father, but I just genuinely wanted something low-key. I think it looks better than something over the top, anyway.

I don't see any reason why the student counselor shouldn't get pierced. It'll totally help him relate better to the kids. They'll look up to him.

dude, don't go to the bustier. if you do it now you got nothing to wear for when you go evil. and i dunno i kinda like the metal look, but then again i don't got any pressing desire to keep anything subtle. like, ever.

and yeah, i agree! i keep telling the dork but he won't buy it. he's got professional aspirations and shit. i did it sometimes when we were younger and he never kept the piercings in then either. total waste of money to get it professionally done, so when i was feeling festive i just did the icecube/safety pin trick. sometimes if he was really out of it we'd get to keep it a few days because of obliviousness.

oh well. guess we'll have to settle for the kids looking up to him because he's a million feet tall.

Have you ever met Emma Frost? She's . . . well, she's normally the paragon of all things in-style. Except when she goes to that club of hers and dresses up like a naked chess piece. I don't know if I trust her enough not to put us all like that, too.

You'd think he'd learn after a few attempts that he'll just keep losing money if he removes them. Keeping them in is a money-saving tip.

that's your uber-boss? wow. i am totally laughing in the face of the next person who talks about the 'leather brigade' as having weird costume choices. probably from inside the skull, but laughter will definitely be happening.

and yeah, that was the basic idea, but no dice. he didn't even let us keep the tat for long. okay, that was more making a point than a fashion move cuz he pissed me off, but still. he's got something against being identified with any kind of counterculture movement cuz then people might notice the stuff that's actually weird. the normal's like, camoflage. god forbid we stand out or anything.

in other news, this palce is totally lacking in amusement. tell me a story of your misspent youth or something. we spent most of ours in institutions and crap so we missed out on most of it.
