    SLIM SLACK! SLIM SLACK! SLIM SLACK! SLIM SLACK! SLIM SLACK! SLIM SLACK! SLIM SLACK! SLIM SLACK! SLIM SLACK! SLIM SLACK!

    I went to American Apparel during my (too short) lunch break. The inescapable Slim Slack girl reminded me–but all I bought was a t-shirt.

    Your advertising dollars at work.

  5. NotUrEvryDayWEzl says at 3:30 pm, July 18th, 2008

    Elitist? Yes. I wear my iPod & sunglasses and blatantly disregard all other human beings in my vicinity while in public.

    Wealthy? I’m still using a 2nd generation iPod that is 4 years old with cracks in its casing that a rainstorm can’t wait to exploit, and my sunglasses cost me $15 at a PacSun outlet.

  6. NotUrEvryDayWEzl says at 3:32 pm, July 18th, 2008

    tunamelt: I’m thinking of maybe taking a screenshot of slim slack girl and making one of those T-shirt sticky thingies and creating my own unique T-shirt (i’m adding truck nutz)

    Why does the ACLU advertise anyway?

  9. whiteasasheet says at 3:36 pm, July 18th, 2008

    I bought a TV at Circuit City. You can imagine how appreciative the slackerdude clerk was when I thanked him for his support of our dirty habit.

  11. tunamelt says at 3:40 pm, July 18th, 2008

    RuperttheBear: No, but I think we’ve found a new replacement for Slim Slack girl.

  12. tunamelt says at 3:41 pm, July 18th, 2008

    NotUrEvryDayWEzl: Do you wear your sunglasses at night?

  13. NotUrEvryDayWEzl says at 3:42 pm, July 18th, 2008

    teebob2000: You are an evil, despicable human being.

  14. teebob2000 says at 3:42 pm, July 18th, 2008

    JeffGoldblum: How else would you know how to find them? In the Yellow Pages under “Righteous Indignation”?

    Or would that be listed under “Indignation - Righteous”?

  15. Spence says at 3:43 pm, July 18th, 2008

    Ok, I have a Wonkette confession to make.
    I’m the one responsible for the Slim Slack girl.
    Yours in fashion,
    Spence

  16. tunamelt says at 3:45 pm, July 18th, 2008

    Spence: Wait, how?

  17. NotUrEvryDayWEzl says at 3:49 pm, July 18th, 2008

    tunamelt: No… at night I trade my elitist and off-putting sunglasses for a cigarette (usually unlit… I DO need to conserve them, after all) with a pouty scowl.

  18. Spence says at 3:51 pm, July 18th, 2008

    tunamelt: No comment, from a mysterious pink factory building in downtown L.A…..

  19. RuperttheBear says at 3:52 pm, July 18th, 2008

    tunamelt: Did you put those eyebrows on her?

  20. anabellum says at 3:56 pm, July 18th, 2008

    circuit city?…the ad must be subliminal, i cant recall ever seeing one…or maybe im just too busy considering what id look like in purple pants EVERY MINUTE OF MY F*ING LIFE to think of anything else……..

  21. nbawriter says at 3:58 pm, July 18th, 2008

    Honestly, tell her to cut that ridiculous split-end mop on her head.

  22. tunamelt says at 4:00 pm, July 18th, 2008

    Spence: Wow. You may in fact be seven or so blocks away from me at this very moment in time.

  23. Spence says at 4:09 pm, July 18th, 2008

    tunamelt: Wait, Wonkette commenters exist in real, physical space? Woah, I thought y’all were just bots!
    We’ll have to get together at Groundworks for a nice iced coffee sometime…

  24. tunamelt says at 4:13 pm, July 18th, 2008

    Spence: Have you been to Lot 44? It’s basically around the block from Groundworks and is amazing. They brew your coffee by the cup.

  25. Spence says at 4:53 pm, July 18th, 2008

    I usually go to the Arts District groundworks, it’s between Union Station and the mysterious pink factory. But I’ll check it out, I’m a total coffee snob!
    To which I say, L.A. Coffee Mill, overrated. Intelligentsia, not overrated, just overrun.

  26. S.Luggo says at 5:21 pm, July 18th, 2008

    Spence: Get a room.

  27. tunamelt says at 6:11 pm, July 18th, 2008

    Spence: Oh, yeah, see I work like right next to the other Groundworks.

  28. Spence says at 7:29 pm, July 18th, 2008

    tunamelt: Either you work at the MTA, or you’re the fuzz, man!

  29. dear american apparel: thank you so much for spicing up wonkette. keep up the great work

    Ken Layne,

    Your sponsor, ACLU, must have really paid up the ass for the ad and the free column. Shrewd move for them! I respect all of your sponsors. I need the relief that your site provides from the seriousness of The Political Machine as sort of a balance.

    I may not be on here everyday, but I do have somewhere to go to kind of refresh my thinking and vent without being judged so much.

    Sincerely and respectfully,

    Mr-Clark
