The good thing is all that make-up hides the bruises well.

"Diane spends hours on the internet sourcing items for her 1930s lifestyle."

Oh, the irony.

I guess if you overlook the Great Depression, World War II, and stultifyingly bad radio comedy (anybody ever listen to, say, Baby Snooks?), those were good times. Unless, of course, you were black, gay, a lady, poor, Jewish, mentally ill, wanted decent pot, etc.

Don't forget Polio.

Jesus Christ, my mother wouldn't let me go down to the creek after August when I was a kid because I'd get "the polio." This was the early fucking 1980s. I told her I was vaccinated, and she flipped her shit.

I thought it was only on radio. If it was around today, there would be all kinds of Snooks porn. Oh, and whoever left the following comment needs a bout with a serious illness to get their priorities in line:

"omg i absolutely love snooks!!! i did snooks and daddy during Halloween for or school play and it was so much fun and one of the best experiences i had in middle school and in acting so far!!!"

Do those ladies really wear all of the granny undies women wore back then? That's just crazy-talk!

Remember, in those days ladies had to wear garter belts to keep their stockings up.

That was awful!  What a shame talents like Fanny Brice and Judy Garland had to perform such dreck!  One of the stupid comment writers seems to think Fanny Brice and Barbara Streisand were contemporaries.

Ooh - Hold on . . .  Let me get "a bit more comfortable" here.  Okay . . .  Go on.

I've never had to take a laxative.  Was food in the 50's THAT goddamned butt-clogging?

The 50’s were pretty rigid and uptight people get constipated.  I never knew this until I dated someone who was super anal.  During a vacation, they went TWO WEEKS without shitting and then dropped little hard balls when we got back home.  I shit >3X daily!

Thankfully new immgrants will be better informed. Peta has applied to rent advertising on the Mexican facing side of the new border fence. It will warn incoming hispanics about the dangers of eating American meaty diets.
