My friend from college posted this picture yesterday with the comment, “They say copy editors should have a dirty mind but this is ridiculous.” I asked who said that, and he replied, “Well, they say you should have a dirty mind so you can catch all the double-entendres, or so I’ve heard. Who they are, I don’t know.” I do know that both of our copy editors are sex-crazed maniacs. I went in their office to ask them about the double-entendres thing, but all they wanted to talk about was whether or not women look hot while wearing Uggs.
h/t: Brendan Shriane!
depends on the uggs, the woman, and whether she’s wearing a skirt, shorts, or jeans.
The correct answer is NO.
Uggs are not attractive, and those who wear them are not attractive either. It’s like a Hotness -10 factor.
Plus I never got why there is a need for Uggs in a climate that rarely gets below -5 C (23 F) anyway.
Wearing Uggs is like wearing those faux lambskin car-seat covers on your feet. So attractive!
Uggs are just plain Uggly. All the time.
I could deal with a woman in a pair of Uggs if she wasn’t wearing anything else. Otherwise, no.
Baseball headline I always wanted to see anytime Randy Johnson lost to New York: “Torrid Yanks Beat Big Unit”.
Fuck you diane@4. You pretentious bitch.
what if you had a boot fetish? would you still see all uggs as ugly all the time?
Yup.
Now that you mention it, I think perhaps my dirty mind might be a large part of what makes me such a good copy editor.
Wow, where did @9 come from? You might want to try a larger size of panties, Bohica.
@10, yes, yes I would see Uggs as Uggly. Boots are sexy. Giant furries are not.
I’m pretentious for saying that Uggs are ridiculous in this climate? What?
I’m going to guess that Diane touched Bohica’s nerve. Someone must like wearing Uggs.
I think Bohica just has a grudge against the metric system.
Or Canadians.
Not much I can do to avoid offending her, if that’s it 🙂
Are you saying that you were BORN Canadian, diane b, and it’s not just a LIFESTYLE CHOICE? Have you even tried one of the many conversion therapies that could make you a happy ex-Canadian
@19 Fnarf: fuck you. I just snotted out the tea I was drinking.
My point was that stating the temp in C then again in (F) comes off as pretty uppity. However, I may have overreacted.
Truth is I just need to get my dick sucked. You busy tonight, Diane?
I have to agree with Fnarf @7.
@21, so far I have to say I’ve seen smoother seduction moves.

I had a copyediting professor in grad school make that same claim. I’ve been an editor for over 20 years, and most of my colleagues over the years have shared my Beavis & Butt-head-esque sense of humor (“heh heh, you said . . .”). So, I guess I’ll choose to believe that it’s true.
