Life's a Stitch

And more recently life’s a creative adventure with some travel thrown in.

Have you ever seen something that is so foreign to you, so incomprehensible you look twice to check its existance? And then you look again just in case it was the MSG or maybe the wrong kind of mushrooms in dinner’s chop suey. Consider these. Excuse me, butt pads? In my family we are afflicted with what we call "Hernandez ass," from my maternal side. It is undoubtedly genetic. Just ask look at my mother, sister, cousins and daughters. Never, I repeat never, would the concept of butt pads ever enter into our realm of reality.

    Er, won’t they move around? Maybe those industrial strength thingies you have would keep them in place but if you need those industrial strength thingies, you sure won’t need butt pads! I’ve seen ads for undies with the padding already stitched in. That should work better!

    The only ‘person’ I’m aware who wanted a bigger butt was Hank Hill, and that was for a cartoon medical condition. Heehee!

    Hank Hill came to mind as soon as I saw the pads. Very funny. I don’t know a single person who would need such pads. By the way, that was as far as I got with my landscape shawl, after that I ripped it, too many mistakes, with all the knit, purl and YO’s I just got too confused. ;o)

    Good Lord! I can’t imagine wanting to add more to my backside. I am always working to REDUCE it. I guess there really is something for everyone out there somewhere.

    As someone who sews the tops of her dresses a full two sizes smaller than the hips (read: bum), that is not something I would ever need either.

    “Ha ha ha ha ha ha”..running screaming around the room. Who would have thought of butt enhancers? Certainly not something I will ever have any use for. Thanks for the link, though, my husband has a skinny ass and could probably use those.

    I have never, ever, ever met a woman who wants a bigger butt. Maybe they are mislabeled breast enhancers?

    Yknow I’ve seen those before for the girl who wants J-Lo’s behind. Thanks no, I have what I refer to as a bumble bee butt. What key word did you put in the search engine when you came up with this? 😉

    LOL! We have Bessie Butt in my family–named for my dear great-grandmother. I think my daughter and I were the only ones blessed with it, though.

    I don’t know why they don’t just use some of the fat from liposuction (that they’re not injecting into their lips) to enhance their flat behinds.
    If perfection is the goal in appearance, then I worry for them about their intellectual, emotional and compassionate expectations. Or perhaps it all stops at the mirror.
    Inspiring knitting!

    For skinny chicks who want a J-Lo ass?? OR guys with that floppy back of the jeans cuz they’ve got no ass? I can’t imagine anything more uncomfortable. Well, okay I can, but it’s pretty far down there, lol!

    Although I’m not heavily endowed in the backside area, I doubt I would ever wear such a foundation garment.
    I think as you age your bum becomes flatter. Therefore, when I’m 90, I might have to start comparing brands!
