Statler and Waldorf and CathyCA (aka The Snark Thread)

[CathyCA]

This is my favorite time of year for snarking. I've watched all of the the red carpet arrival shows and the awards shows. The people at the Grammys are such easy snark targets. It's like shooting fish in a barrel.


Take Sara Bareilles, for instance. Does she own a hairbrush? That frock looks like my grandmother's guest room bedspread has been repurposed. I'm not even going to comment on the red accessories.

ROFL

Agreed!!! Sara's Dress looks like a Bedspread from yesteryear. Someone went to the Thrift Store, bought the bedspread and attempted to make this girl a dress. Her Red purse and Heels match the Red Carpet.

A better purchase may have been Curtains!! Scarlett O'Hara donned a Green Velvet Frock made from the Curtains at Tara.

Even Carol Burnett's 'curtain dress' looked better...(she saw it in the window and just had to have it... )

Just sayin...

Oh, this is rich.

To me, the surprising performance of the night was from Kacey Musgraves, who put the mini back in dress... or something. I just can't find a photo of her in full length. Any thoughts?

So what kind of outfit is this on Musgraves?

It's more than a rhinestone cowboy outfit. She's a neon cowgirl.

I adore those light-up cowboy boots.

[CathyCA]

Clearly changed into something else for her performance.

Both of those ladies can SING!

I have a couple jury trials coming up. Think I could borrow the cowboy boots?

I can't find a good picture but what is up with Jamie Dixon's hair? His front to back comb over is a different color than the rest of his hair - it even looked like a different texture. I probably wouldn't have noticed it if he hadn't "played" more minutes on the court than any of his players.

I believe a comparison was made in chat with Pepé Le Pew. Weird hair.

Very weird.

That is a good comparison. Because it looked like a different texture to me - I even wondered if it was a bad rug but from the front, I don't think it was.

This picture is from last year, but it appears as though Jamie Dixon is going gray. Gray hair has less melanin than dark hair, and this lack of melanin in the hair shaft also causes a loss of moisture. Because there is less moisture in gray hair, the gray hair tends to grow in and look more wiry than naturally pigmented hair.

Jamie Dixon has two things going on here. First, the gray hair is growing in with a lighter appearance and a coarser texture. Secondly, his hairline is receding at the same time. There isn't much he can do about the receding hairline (unless he tries hair plugs), but he could get a keratin treatment to put more moisture back in his hair and reduce the wiriness of the gray hair growing in.

Not that I know anything about gray hair. . . ;)

Don't ask me about gray hair - mine isn't gray - it is just blond all the way to the roots.

Jamie Dixon is still a very nice looking man. ;)

I have no clue what color my hair is!

me either. I have not seen my unaltered hair color in decades.

I'm guessing that he's doing an extensive comb backas opposed to a comb over in order to cover a bald spot right on the top back of his head a la Coach K's little scalp halo. Still, it could be done a lot better by a good barber. It looks like he just whacks it off in a straight line back there. It could be feathered in and it would look a lot better.

BTW, I could help Coach K with his. I learned back in grad school when I was first learning to cut the OP's hair (which was a black flat top at the time) that an eyebrow pencil can do wonders when you have tried your best but have still given him that chopped up mangy dog look.

PS Hey, he couldn't complain. It was free, wasn't it?!

Did anyone give an audible "WTF?" when State took the floor last night?

When Adidas presented its special March Madness uniforms last month, the kits looked bad enough on their own. Bold, contrasting colors mixed with oversized logos equaled a look straight out of 1992. But maybe they were the sort of clothes that didn’t look good on the rack, but were spectacular when you got home and stood in front of the mirror. Nope.

UGLY is my take on those uniforms!

[Ima Facultiwyfe]

There was always one thing you could count on from Kansas. And that was a classy uni. Now they have even succumbed to the clown suit trend.

Love, Ima

Friday the 13th !!!!!!!!!!! Beat the Irish! GTHC

Greensboro Coliseum will be serving Wulfie Burgers and Fries today, and Wulfie Stew with hushpuppies!

Did anyone else last night give an audible "WTF" when looking at Duke's white uniforms? I don't recall seeing the Duke outline:

I DO NOT like the outline. I prefer the DUKE BLUE spelling of DUKE.

Then again, if they win with them, who am I to complain?
