I lived in Los Angeles from 1981 until 1989, when I moved to New York. Let me tell you, I was never as glad to see a place in my life as I was to see New York. Never did manage to become a California boy, I guess.
(I'm in Vermont now, and quite happy with it. Here I'll stay.)
If young girls and young women aren't doing something to piss off the demographic of a blog like this, they are doing something wrong. It's their job whether they choose speech, fashion or music to express it. And good for them.
This sort of thing is great. What better way to embarrass your kids at some future date than to be able to show them things like pictures of yourself with blue underarm hair, or ear gauges, or leggings, or big shoulder pads, or popped collars with a Members Only jacket? Without photos like these, how else could you ever hear that timeless child's chorus of "OMG, you guys were sooooo lame!!"?

Hmm. Keep your underarm hair, but don't dye it. Yeuch!
