  • 18:40:54: @MzStarrBurst sure, bunnies wear the costume + those ears, playmates pose nude for the centerfold.
  • 18:43:38: @MzStarrBurst even models who pose nude in the magazine who arent in the centerfold arent called playmates, like @BrookeBurke on #DWTS
  • 18:47:21: @MzStarrBurst or LaToya Jackson. she posed for playboy but is not a Playmate
  • 18:49:24: @MzStarrBurst just a “celebrity who posed for Playboy". i guess they don’t have a collective name
  • 18:58:54: oh yeah? thanx! RT @MzStarrBurst @DyNama i just made your picture big. you’re handsome!
  • 19:00:14: @MzStarrBurst i was having a good hair day that day!

  • 20:09:37: @TheGodless that’s what i think too, but several furniture stores in this area advertise nothing but leather (or fake leather)
  • 20:17:39: @itastepaint i dont even like leather jackets
  • 20:25:32: #shutup @Marshalls & @TJMaxx! it’s hard comparing fashion stores cuz no two carry the same stuff
  • 20:26:18: @Breathless74 that may or may not be a bad thing, hmmm?
  • 21:04:11: @itastepaint my brother’s leather jacket was stolen (!), so he went right out and bot another just like it!
  • 22:10:56: did they really ever break rocks as punishment in prisons?
  • 23:25:33: i walked uptown to get an instant cappuccino at 6p. my fave flavor was completely out, just dispensed clear hot water!
