This whole thread is a mess! I almost died from laughing so hard and I was at work trying not to laugh on the phone with customers. The "Gary Coleman in a sea of darkwashed denim" did it for me...I almost flatlined at that one. The "Thundercat" was a classic, lol. Thanks for brightening up my day. *smile*

She tried to blame it all on the tailor and said "Well, I think we shoulda been able to get in the prom with whatever we had." Umm, no, there were rules to follow, sweetie.

This is what happens when parents choose not to parent.

Sorry to crash, but since when are ribbons and a mini-skirt formal attire? did I miss that memo? Thankfully, the freeway was closed so I couldn't chaperone prom this year.:o

Was she on a local or nationally-syndicated radio show? Did anyone attempt to set her straight or at least play devil's advocate?

I wish one of my nieces would try to get away with a dress like that, but I'm sure a dress like that wouldn't cross their minds. I hope other kids have learned to keep their video girl aspirations out of the prom. Save that for after graduation.

naturaldiscretn 05-14-2008 12:31 PM

It was a local one. I was rushing for work and I had just pulled into the parking garage, but I did hear the DJ's trying to tell her that she was wrong. She started getting upset and was telling them that everyone didn't know the whole story.

She also mentioned that she and her mother are on bad terms and she was raised by her grandmother. Supposedly, her grandmother had seen the dress and had no problems with it.

I find that hard to believe. I wore a short skirt (3 inches above the knee) to a dance and my grandfather stopped me. He wanted to know if my mother knew that I wore handkerchiefs for skirts. He then went on to tell me that I was "going to get arthritis in my legs" from the cold air. The dance was in June. :p

I don't believe her. Her grandma may have seen A dress but she didn't see THAT dress. Unless grandma is 39-40 years old then it may be possible. :o

BabyBlue91 05-14-2008 03:03 PM

I caught wind of this story at another forum ... oh, my word!

I guess we're not teaching our girls to leave a little something to the imagination, LOL!

Seriously, that's why I said "supposedly", lol. I don't believe it, either. I think she just wanted to be "grown and sexy" at the prom even if that meant disobeying the rules.

Just jumping in here.....but PRE-K PROM??? WTH? What next? K PROM...1st GRADE PROM? One every year?

Some people need to let little kids BE little kids WHILE they ARE little kids....then bigger kids (teens) wouldn't be having more little kids while they are still kids.

The comments on C&D are the best.

Somebody said they are competing for Mr. and Ms. WIC 2008.

It is unfortunate that photos of black preschoolers conjur such images.

That sounds like something Fresh would say. lol

I pray that little girl was delivered via cesarean. Just bless her little big head heart. :(

The little boy looks adorable. I want to know what the rest of the "prom attendees" looked like.

I understand pre-K graduation, but pre-K prom is a waste of money. What memories can you treasure from that. Now, I had an 8th grade prom, and that was very cool since a lot of us were separating on our paths to different high schools. This is so...eww.

These children with the ghetto non-fabulosity. I hope at least one of them looks back 10 years from now and says, "What were we thinking?" And I swear that's the same school where the other ghetto non-fabulous pictures were taken. Or do all of the schools with ghetto non-fabulous populations all look the same?

I have absolutely no comment on the last set of pics. It would take entirely too long to summarize my feelings on each one.

I'm CTHU at the flip flops.

All of the Jo Ann Fabric stores within a 50ft. radius of that town/city need to be set ablaze. :mad:

You know Wal Mart sells fabric too, right? http://www.pledgepark.com/images/smilies/itstrue.gif

Those pics are from New Jersey. I saw a license plate in one of the photos.

NinjaPoodle 06-05-2008 05:28 PM

OK. Im convinced SOME of these children are going to the Pimp's and Hoe's ball.:mad::eek:
A few of them aren't too bad but these girls look like hookers. I'm MAD at the person sewing this CRAP! They need their arse kicked to the other side of the moon!

nittanyalum 06-05-2008 05:34 PM

^^^Out of all of those pictures, only the girl in pink in the 2nd picture and the girl in the white in the 4th picture should have been allowed to leave the house. The pink dress is really quite pretty, although I'd worry she might not be able to see where she's going and trip and fall...
