Portland Mayor Sam Adams admits to having a "sexual relationship" with an 18-year-old former intern in 2005. (linky) - ReluctantCynic Jan 19, 19:03 10
- Oh, great. We find out after we already erected him. -- nm - Redmond Jan 19, 19:08
- Male or female? -- nm - nubby Jan 19, 19:05 6
  - Male. - ReluctantCynic Jan 19, 19:21 5
    - 18 year old = no story. 17 or younger, then we got a story -- nm - Redmond Jan 19, 19:24 4
      - Totally. However, I think there are three reasons why the media is jumping all over this (KGW and KOIN are running stories, too). - ReluctantCynic Jan 19, 19:27 3
        
        That's kind of creepy if the waited until he turned 18. So they were in love before he was 18 it seems. -- nm - Redmond Jan 19, 19:33

I love you guys for putting up with me. what about hot topic? decent name recognition, I think. to replace frederick's maybe? -- nm - martin luther king jr loves mandy lane Jan 19, 18:59 31
- better than Frederick's. new, hip(pish), trendy, the future. Fred's: old. -- nm - kare Jan 19, 19:05 4
  - how do you pit urban against hot topic in overall impressiveness? -- nm - martin luther king jr loves mandy lane Jan 19, 19:09 3
    - I agree with kare and pixie. Urban Outfitters is cool and kitchy. - ReluctantCynic Jan 19, 19:23
    - i'd rate urban over topic because they serve a broader, and likely more upscale, market -- nm - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 19, 19:11

    - I see. - psilotum Jan 19, 19:24
- Better than Fred, I think. -- nm - mara Jan 19, 19:04

- I kind of laugh at the people that shop there, but they're good at what they do. -- nm - Reagen Jan 19, 19:02 14
  - I laugh at people over 20 that shop there. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Jan 19, 19:06
  - Yeah, that's the thing with Freds. I have no idea how the industry perceives them, only how I perceive their brand. nm - ralph wiggum Jan 19, 19:05 12
    - I get this, but they have name recognition and decent sales volume. - martin luther king jr loves mandy lane Jan 19, 19:12 7
      - you know what they have that vicky's doesn't? A great selection of full figure bras. -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 19:13 6
        
        I was surprised to find that Fred's wasn't nearly as skanky as I remembered it (when I used to walk by the stores in the mall as a teen). - kelly Jan 19, 19:18 5
        
        their quality is *awful* on most intimate apparel, but I actually have some super cute fred's pajamas. - martin luther king jr loves mandy lane Jan 19, 19:21 1
        
        if their quality is awful I would ditch them. -- nm - lileve Jan 19, 19:35
        
        Who else is going to sue you a custom Nurses outfit! ;) -- nm - lileve Jan 19, 19:19 1
        
        leg avenue! (another one of my clients. but nobody knows them, really.) -- nm - martin luther king jr loves mandy lane Jan 19, 19:23
        
        same here. I think the skanky stores really hurt them. -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 19:19
    - it's kind of shocking how stuck in the past they remain, especially given they're right in the middle of porn central - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 19, 19:08 3
      - I am surprised you know so much about women's underwear, but I totally agree. And at some point they went way downmarket. - loosilu Jan 19, 19:11 2
        
        a college gf used to write copy for them - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 19, 19:13 1
        
        and you've followed them ever since? -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 19:14
- (remember to consider that hot topic is considered an "emerging market" retailer as more retailers push to market to cash-rich tweens.) -- nm - martin luther king jr loves mandy lane Jan 19, 19:02
- young, hip(ish). better than fred's -- nm - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 19, 19:02 3
  - Hot Topic is not hip. It's lame. Emo weeping kids. Only my opinion. -- (link) - lileve Jan 19, 19:03 2
    - thanks. are you hiring for a large corporation? - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 19, 19:06 1
      - Okies. -- nm - lileve Jan 19, 19:09
- oh god, Fred's before the topic, IMO. -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 18:59
uh, what the hell is a "Pantcoat" (and no, it don't think its an extra thick or extra long nor double tube condom) -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 19, 18:56 6
- I think of it as a thigh-length coat or jacket. I think it maybe goes back to when women first started wearing pants, and no longer needed a - MojaveMeg Jan 19, 19:03 2
  - indeed. my mom told me it was a rule that when you wear a dress or skirt, your coat must cover the hem. -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 19:06
  - ok, that makes sense -- nm - zeitgeist Jan 19, 19:06
- is it like a pantywaist? -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 18:59 2
  - just a mention on slickdeals.net something off a Lane Bryant pantcoat, never heard the term before -- (link) - zeitgeist Jan 19, 19:02 1
    - it appears to be a coat that one wears with pants (in other words, a short coat). -- nm - loosilu Jan 19, 19:03
wait a minute, what's wrong with skanky? -- nm - dogbert183 Jan 19, 18:55 1
- I consider skanky to be an absolute imperative in moderation with more elegant lingerie. -- nm - David Jan 19, 19:03
i wish they would let Butterstick have a seat at the swearing in tomorrow - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 19, 18:54 3

- But what can we watch on the History Channel? -- nm - psilotum Jan 19, 18:51
what about la senza and anne x? -- nm - martin luther king jr loves mandy lane Jan 19, 18:47 6
- heard of la senza but definitely will rank it lower than 9WEST -- nm - Sheep Jan 19, 18:51
- never heard of them. What are they? -- nm - lileve Jan 19, 18:47
- they sound sexy - pigby just isn't that into you Jan 19, 18:47 3
  - they're canadian. -- nm - martin luther king jr loves mandy lane Jan 19, 18:48 2
    - I would say yes. Shows you have experience with international markets. -- nm - lileve Jan 19, 18:49
    - v. well regarded here. - Reagen Jan 19, 18:49
LIR: I have two 'anniversaries' I memorialize, but not really celebrate. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 19, 18:45 7
