Tank Girl

I've spent the better part of the last hour and a half trying to find a good outfit (or, even just PIECES of an outfit) so I can dress up like Tank Girl. Besides being a little annoyed with finding virtually NOTHING I got to day that I'm sick of people making her out to be a sex object.

Tank girl isn't sexy because she's wearing skimpy clothes, she's sexy because she has an amazing personality drives a fucking tank. She's unique. So I feel somewhat insulted by people taking her and her sexiness that is based on her unique personality and making it into something else. Dressing up in skimpy army green clothing with a pair of goggles and posing suggestively doesn't mean your dressed up as tank girl. It means your unoriginal and are using her uniqueness to try to make yourself look sexier.

She's not a porn star, she's a person. Why do we feel the need to sex up EVERYTHING that's even remotely cool.

I'm going to go to Plato's with my next check (in like... 2 weeks) and look for some tank-girl like basics. Anything that looks like she would have worn it.

Plus I'm really lusting after some new stockings and tights. Maybe a new pair of socks (I haven't gotten new socks in ages and I'm really needing some)
