she makes fashion choices that really emphasize her flaws

one time a women in a department store came out of the dressing room in a bathing suit, tentatively asking me what I thought. I told her, honestly, that is NOT the swimsuit for you. She was large and it had some stripes near the middle ....I told her, accentuate your fabulous upper curves, not your waist! We found her a great swimsuit!

Serious drinker right there.

When you compare it to the pic on their website it looks like a different person. Wealth and her obvious addiction has changed her completely.

Here is her law firm pic


Here she is now.

She's mad as hell, tensed up, and pointing the gun at whatever has her in a terrified rage. If she just squeezed that fist a little more to emphasize whatever she is yelling, somebody could have been shot. The way she's acting, I would not assume the safety is on -- I'd just hit the dirt and call for the cops.

Naked fear. There's rage, too, but it's mostly fear on her face and it explains everything. She's absolutely terrified because conservative pundits and their brain-dead minions have told her that "those people" are going to invade her home, steal all her valuables, and destroy everything else.

She's really scared that the giant mausoleum she lives in would be gutted and put to actual good use, i.e., a daycare center; food distribution depot; free medical clinic; coffee shop/ library/ art studio/gallery/ hangout; community garden & nature center -- and a dance club for blowing off steam and raising JOY!

There's certainly plenty of room, more than enough for all that and more. Our intrepid patriot simply will not allow that in her neighborhood, though, and will threaten armed violence to prevent it. Trump is her hero, and she believes he will come to her rescue and back her up.

Just more proof that money can't buy class or respectability.

By the look of their home I'd say the percentages lawyers take there are high.

Hmmm.... what sort of people are deciding what's ethical?

So, are we a corrupt shit-hole nation yet?

Who are these brave U.S.A. patriots?

When the rest of the world talks about "ugly Americans" we've got a portrait of some right here -- guns and all.

I'll bet the waiters mocked them in Paris.
