Top Comments: Fashion Police

So according to the more recent fashion trends among today's youth (which I'm apparently not a part of anymore), we're currently re-living 1987. Once wasn't enough?

I have fond memories of 1987. I wanted to be Madonna. I did my hair similar to this photo for Halloween:

I've been told by two of my sisters (the middle and the youngest - who wasn't even BORN in 1986), that I'm going with them to see Pat Benatar and that we're wearing leg warmers and mini skirts and off the shoulder sweaters with huge belts. Similar to this look:

I have to admit to wearing leg warmers. I also have to admit to leggings, and I really have to admit to the 6 inch high bangs. Oh...and Keds - which I used to draw on...and I had to get a new pair of Keds every time I had a new boyfriend because inevitably I wrote "Elise loves Kevin" or something on my shoes and then I couldn't wear them anymore. I was 10...give me a break.

Here are your Top Comments:

From OrangeClouds115:

Irhoke talks about convincing Republicans to vote for Obama.

Wild Starchild was on a roll.

From va dare:

If you missed it earlier, take a moment to check out the diary Obama on MTR: Protecting Appalachian Waterways top Priority by faithfull'; if the diary wasn't good enough (and it was great), faithfull offers up one comment that could have been another diary in itself: Check out some of the responses! (from the AppVoices blog).

From Rachel Griffiths:
I hope this comment from Real World Chick gets people off their asses and into action...or 50 years from now our grandchildren are going to be asking us, why didn't you do something to stop this from happening?!

In the diary by davefromqueens: 80 Year Old Arrested for Wearing a Tshirt

From jlms_qkw:

From ChrisR's diary, Political American League Preview, DemocraticLuntz is funny.

From kath25:

So in Scott Kleeb's fundraising diary today I suggested that we needed more pictures of Scott. Scott himself replied and promised to post a picture of himself commenting on DailyKos. A few hours later, his campaign posted another diary with said pictures in it.

Now, that was pretty darn cool of Scott Kleeb, if I do say so myself. Kinda makes you all want to go ActBlue and give him a few bucks too!

From earicicle:

I'm sure it's incredibly bad form to nominate a thread in which one has played a large role, but the ornithological and scatological puns flew thickly in this thread started by Big Tex's comment in califdem's hilarious diary detailing San Francisco's proposed GWB Sewage Treatment Plant.

From Elise (Me):

Wit Wither Wilt talks about civil liberties and choice.

duckhunter brings back some Reality Bias memories in an "Annual Troll Games" diary.

We hit 18 million comments the other day - in ct's celebration diary, ksh01 has a funny comment in german (ct's diary is partially in german...)

TruthofAngels starts off a funny thread (which ends with ceiling cat!) in today's edscan diary.

Everyone should write their reps using the link here in boofdah's comment about the Prevention First Bill.

Joan in Seattle sums up her personal position on abortion, and oscarsmom explains why it's a position to respect even though you may or may not agree.

Thanks to brillig for collecting Top Mojo! Give her tips!
