I've Let Myself Down :(

[hc4361]

Just been to my usual supermarket and had to abandon my wife at the checkout - I unload and she packs and pays.
I could not hold my laughter in at the woman at the till, she is very fair skinned with blonde hair but her eyebrows looked as if they had been drawn on with a very wide, thick black marker pen at least half an inch above her natural brow line and with an exaggerated upturned V.

I expect better of myself and I'm ashamed. Feel free to kick my behind

May be her sight as gone a little blur looking at all those bar codes.

[ummmm]

I don't laugh but I can't help but look in amazement. Why do they do it?

I'm glad this trend came in after my daughter had found her own understated look.

Sad thing is, adults do it as well.

this one is just as ghastly to look at - why does someone want to look like they have broken shoulders?

Some people blindly follow fashion and don't have friends honest enough to tell them they don't suit it.
Alternatively, maybe she has a child with an artistic slant and used waterproof paint and mum is stuck like that for a while? :-)

The till operator must be in her 40s. I'm still laughing

[choux]

Talking of Groucho Marx, did you say to her "I never forget a face, but in your case I'll be glad to make an exception" ?

hc, I hope your good lady is still talking to you ;)

[hc4361]

Just about, choux. I think she's in shock

You have reminded me of a lady who worked in my nearest Waitrose. She was tall, had a ramrod back, blonde hair, immaculate make up, and always wore a very good bra to keep her bosom in high esteem.
So far so good.

However, when I first saw her I did a treble take, for she looked like Danny la Rue in full drag day-wear. I only went to her checkout once for fear of staring at her. Lovely lady though.

I always felt that the young ladies at department store make up counters looked like mannequins. I've never gone for the over groomed look

[pastafreak]

There's a young woman like that in my local supermarket...thick black drawn-on brows that don't belong to her face.
I mustn't stare, I mustn't stare, I mustn't stare...

Have seen some real sights, including my 15 year old granddaughter and her friends. She did ask me if I would like her to do my eyebrows. Big mistake - it was like two black slugs crawling across my face.

pasta, are you in the West Midlands?

maggie, hope it washed off quicksticks
