My Good China?


I spotted this set in Macy's mailer of the week. I chuckled, "I'd be a grandma before i'd buy this shit!" Then it dawned on me. Since when is "grandma" synonymous with "conventional" and "bad taste"? It's such a youth culture we live with now, it makes me sick. No wonder aging women, percieved to be progressively less vital as their sexuality wanes, are easy targets. When films like Big Mama's House came on the scene, I was like, i thought we were living in the 21st century? Oh, pardon me, is 50's humor still in vogue?

So before you giggle at another gramster joke, just remember: Someone had to be a grandma for you to be here. Buster.
