Drink the haterade

[fredericks]

FUCK DAVIDS BRIDAL. Seriously, fuck this store v. v. much. Walking into this store gives me the urge to punch people in the face.

That is all.

Yikes - there must be a story behind all the vehemence. I hope you kept your wits about you and didn't really punch anyone...although THAT would be a funny story too.

I would be laughing all the way to the holding cell, believe you me.
I dislike shopping.

Amen to this post.

This wouldn't happen to be tangerine flavored haterade, would it?

Although, really, regardless of the flavor, I drink deeply of this haterade with you. Preferably spiked with vodka.

Got it in one. This post would have turned into a rather broad rant about how much I loathe the wedding industry and the marketing towards brides along with a diatribe on shitty retail practices but they brought my dress out finally and I ran the hell out of there.

And thanks for the laugh. Now I'm imagining Klingon drinking rituals involving cursing ones foes while drinking Tang. My mind, it is a strange desert.

THE HONORABLE WARRIOR WOULD CONSIGN SUCH FRIPPERY AND COLOR TO THE DEPTHS OF HELL WHERE IT BELONGS. THE HONOR OF STO-VO-KOR IS UNDESERVED BY SUCH POORLY MANUFACTURED EXCUSES FOR FORMAL GARMENTS.

DRINK YOUR STRANGELY COLORED SORRY EXCUSE FOR BLOOD WINE AND BE GRATEFUL THIS IS NOT A PROPER KLINGON WEDDING WHERE YOU WOULD BE FORCED TO BLEED ALL OVER YOUR WHITE GOWN, BRIDE.

Ugh. The horror stories I have heard from there...

[fredericks.livejournal.com]

Unreal. If you just want to grab a dress and run out it's made nigh impossible. I have no patience for that place.

wow, remind me to stay out. If it leads YOU to murder, I'd be in jail in a hot minute.

lol. I'm, like, envisioning you getting stabby with a hair accessory. We're not made for stores like David's Bridal. When the gent brought my dress out he presented it to me with a mini-flourish. I suspect he would have put the full flourish in effect but I was frowning and pinching the bridge of my nose in an ill-disguised fit of annoyance.

One, it's a bridesmaid dress. They are traditionally not attractive, and no one really cares because the point of a bridesmaid is to set a hideous background to make the bride appear that much more comely. Two, it's tangerine. TANGERINE. I'm a winter, not an autumn. Or whateverthefuck, I look hideous in it. Three, I'd already ordered the dress I just wanted to walk out with it but I had to sit a wait in the same line as people who wanted a concierge to do the whole dress selection with them. WTF!

I was not having a good day. That store always makes things worse.

I had the WORST possible experience with them when I was being a bridesmaid for a friend's wedding. They are EVIL INCARNATE.

YES THEY ARE! Gah. I swear, unless you're one of those overemoting gushing brides from the TV shows Davids Bridal is guaranteed to engender homicidal tendencies.
