Because a City of Rock is Really a Fashionable Thing to See

Rock City, Ruby Falls, the Lost Sea — can a road trip really get any better than that? No, I say, unless, unless, UNLESS it also involves a gas station/truck stop/smoking-encouraged Wendy’s which offers, for sale, coffee cups which are emblazoned with the saying “you said you wanted half a cup of coffee” and are — I am not kidding — actually cut in half. No, really! Really! FASHION! FASHION! Brenda Dickson’s cabinets are stocked with these, I tell you, stocked. Only she fills four of them with a smoothie of her own concoction, tops it with sprouts, and then goes off to run a marathon. Now that, my friends, is fashion.

I now make four shameful admissions: I did not actually see Rock City, Ruby Falls, or the Lost Sea, and though I stood in front of them and contemplated their fashion for quite some time, I did not purchase the above-mentioned mugs. I, obviously, fail at fashion.

And so, in an attempt to redeem myself and once again gain some sense of fashion/fashion of sense, I post the following photograph for you to contemplate, which, dear readers, is only one in a series of Slash photographs which will be posted, daily, until you admit to yourselves and to the Hyacinth Girls that “November Rain” is not ONLY a song of fashion/a fashionable song, it is The Ultimate Video of Fashion/Fashionable Video:

Well hello! Welcome to the jungle. Here, we will talk about fashion until we bring you to your nanananananakneeskneeskness.
