Bikinilicious

Don't you just hate those 'blanktastic' or 'blankalicious' type of words? God, they rub me up the wrong way. Nearly as much as the superfluous use of multiple exclamation marks!!! Or when people insist their band has a lower case letter at the beginning, like blink 182 or k.d.lang. Or when people spell 'rock' as 'rawk.'

Anyway, every day from now until the day I leave this city, I will have to look at a 'blankalicious' word, as one of the empty offices on the ground floor is now a pubic hair removal shop which offers 'bodylicious waxing.' That sign on the door isn't quite as bad, though, as the thought of a mountains of greasy pubic hair in the bins in the back yard.

For no reason whatsoever - mainly cos I'm a bit bored and don't know what to do with myself, I suspect - here's some photos that I took with my mobile telephone.

I agree about the exclamation marks. Even if people use just one at a time, I get annoyed when they use one after nearly every sentence. I always looks like they are über-excited about whatever they are writing about, like these people on homeshopping-channels.

Douglas Coupland would have written of this behaviour: "he always talks big time"

Sounds like they need to get in Mr. Tourette to spruce up their signage. 'C*nt Stripping Agony' maybe?

Today I am wearing shinylicious lip gloss. It's so very extreme (or "X-treme!!!") that my coworkers may be blinded, but it's all worthwhile in the name of whateverlicious fashion.

From the Bootilicious Swede;

What on Earth? When you could have bought the K800i? But ok, I agree with Dave - as a Lomo it's great. =)

i have waited yonks to write this to you because i was on holiday and the computer i used there was waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too slow!
I was wandering the streets of Lanzarote (Puerto del Carmen) and I saw a sign for "bodylicious"...i thought that was what you had written about but wasn't sure so had to wait all this time to double check! Yay! I hate -licious things too but squealed with glee (much to bystander's amusement) when i saw the sign! sign-a-licious, dude!
