D:
\nI have to paint my toe nails ‘cos I want to wear open-toed shoes tomorrow.
\nMe:
\nWhy do you have to do so?? I can’t be bothered AND I love wearing open-toed shoes.
\nD (ostensibly appalled over the line):
\nWhat??? How can you not paint your toe nails when you wear open-toed shoes??? It’s SO rude! It’s terrible to let people see your toes naked!
\nMe:
\nThat’s so bimbotic! And it’s so troublesome. I would have to spend money buying nail polish of different colours to match the shoes I’m wearing!
\nD (sounding exasperated):
\nNow who’s the bimbotic one?? You just buy one colour that can go with all shoes lah!
\nMe:
\nI don’t believe such a colour exists. Argh forget it. I can’t be bothered. <\/i>
\nYes, I can’t be bothered – not unless I’m going to some evening function or it’s, *gasp*, my own wedding. I don’t even own a bottle of nail polish. I’ve never gone for a manicure or pedicure either. I should do so one day just to pamper myself. Maybe I’ll treat myself to one when my birthday comes along.
\nSo to my friend D, whom I usually have the most bimbotic, silliest and most bitchy conversations with (I love it btw!), nail polish to nails is like clothes to our body. Without that film of colour shrouding the nails, the toes are starked naked. Tramping around town in unpainted nails is tantamount to indecent exposure – a criminal let loose and on the wanted list of the fashion police.
\nOk, let’s do a poll here – Is it really rude to not have one’s toe nails painted when wearing open-toed shoes?
\nMeanwhile for this weekend, I’ll continue to be on D’s fashion police squadron’s hit list. ;p<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
