Holy crap, how embarrassing for Berkeley.
I'm happy now I have my pound of flesh. Or in this case, my 7.5oz.

Oh, I get it. The Jew butcher is ripping you off. Nice one. Doesn't reflect to well on your domestic economy if you couldn't tell until it was too late, though, does it?
I butchered that comeback, didn't I?
For instance, I said "to well" instead of "too well".
There's nobody butcher than Ben.
The "Pink" line from Vic's Sec (oh, yes, I just called it that) is not completely skanky. In fact, I'm so very not skanky, and the GF is sadly not as skanky as she could perhaps be in the undies dept, but we both get 90% of our underwear from the Pink line. (Seriously, five pairs for $25? Such a deal.)
Oh, and if they've got Cal undies? Totally buying them. I'm a little shocked they don't have any for Oregon State. 'Cuz THAT would be funny.
I dearly like thee, Doctor Fell,
The reason why I cannot tell;
But this I know, and know to well,
I dearly like thee, Doctor Fell.
The original apparently has a an interesting classics-related history.
Don't californicate the Beavers.
Evergreen State Geoducks. Where Sleater-Kinney came from.
I don't think I would want a geoduck anywhere near my beaver. Have you seen one? They're TERRIFYING. (I recommend the ep of Dirty Jobs where Mike Rowe does a stint as a geoduck farmer.)
Sleater and Kinney are not woman enough for a geoduck either.
16: I have some of their panties, too, but that doesn't mean that the entire *concept* of a "pink" line of VS shlock isn't skanky. Also low quality. But hey.
That setup's so easy, I cannot in good conscience take advantage of it.
Geoduck is a highly prized food item.
As carp should be, but aren't.
Mazola is Canola, and Canola is Rape.
Victoria's Secret is uniformly awful. They hire hot models, though. But seriously, everything they make is horrible and overpriced.

So I should abandon my ineffectual academic procedural liberal drive against John Yoo and focus instead on stamping out the menace of Pink-line VS underpants?

I blame Victoria's Secret for the prevalence of those ghastly foam-moulded bras.
I'm with the mormon and the heebster. Overpriced panties that rip, bras that do not fit, bleh.
And the four hundred daily catalogs they send you, all with this weirdly rehashed clothes that looks new-but-dated.
the VS models also look scarily young. I keep thinking I am being set up.
John Yoo vs. the assorted Hoovers, can one bad apple outdamage a bevy of loosely associated assclowns?
Their catalogue clothes are puzzlingly awful: made out of cheap, cheap cotton/poly, cut with an almost prudish lack of fashion, but packaged to be slinky or sluttish or "fun." Even on the ridiculously hot models, the clothes look sort of backwoods-hoochie-momma.
If not VS, where should my wife be getting high-quality skanky slinky sluttish starts-with-an-s underthings, then?
I'm mostly asking for my wife's boyfriend's benefit, FWIW. Also, she much prefers shopping online to in the real world.
That Pink line is one of the standard fashion strategies amongst the undergrads here at Sunny State. Sort of Loungewear a la Louche.

At first I thought this was an anagram for "Golden Bear".
That Pink line is one of the standard fashion strategies amongst the undergrads here at Sunny State.
Because of the forty hundred catalogs that normalize the bizarro clothing. Otherwise they would be shopping at Hot Topic like good little college students.
The Yoo lines consists entirely of hoodies.
If not VS, where should my wife be getting high-quality skanky slinky sluttish starts-with-an-s underthings, then?
La Perla.
50: Does anyone know if la perla in Italian is used as a euphemism in Italian the same way it is used in Spanish?
I expected someone to note that a Lady Longhorn is the star of the set-piece advertisement. That collection has been hooked.

ONline? Figleaves. Buy decent brands. Depending on her size, low-price (but still acceptably decent quality, plus cute, etc.) maybe Felina. High end? If she's the practical sort and wants things that are sexy, but also actually *wearable*, Chantelle. If sexy is the issue and wearable isn't, then yes: La Perla and other things in that range.
54: Oh dear lord, woman. Cute selection at each or those, but are you made of money?
Backwoods-hoochie-momma.
Hey! Elitist.
53: That collection has been hooked.
Maidenform got there first a long time ago. (At least in terms of taking the bull by the short horns.)
55: The trick with figleaves is to watch for sales, as they do have 50% off sales fairly regularly.
