    Default NOT a scrunchie!!!

    A visitor in my office kept looking at me funny. Finally he said something about my hairdo reminding him of that Sex and the City episode about the scrunchies.

    I politely informed him that I was not wearing a scrunchie.

    He said, "no, but it's pretty close."

    I was wearing a figure-8 bun with a Bronze jewelers corkscrew.

    LOL! That was very strange indeed. I wonder if he knows what a scrunchie is...

    Lize, that was my thought too. It sounds like he's a typical man and doesn't know what the heck a scrunchie is.

    Magdelene, it would have taken all of my self-control not to have asked him if he even knew what he was talking about.
    Then taken my corkscrew out and jabbed him with it.

    Yeah, 'popularity' points plummeted drasically for Sarah Jessica Parker after that episode aired. I could almost hear LHC'rs gasping around the world!

    I've never seen the show. What was the deal with that episode? Or is it appropriate?

    Carrie and boyfriend Berger discuss hair. Carrie tells Berger no one wears scruncies anymore. They go to a restaurant and the woman in line in front of them is wearing a half up scruncies pony tail. She is visiting from Macon, GA and has a pronounced southern accent. Proving that no real NY'er would wear a scruncie. Correct me if I have some of the details wrong.
    I used to like that show until they thought they could rule the fashion world.
    PS I had a scruncie on this morning to workout!

    The Carrie character told her boyfriend that what he had written in his novel about a woman wearing a scrunchie out in public was wrong, that no New York woman would EVER do such a thing. Then they ran into a woman at a party who had a scrunchie in her hair, and it turned out that she was from ... well, I forget where, but she had a thick southern drawl and used bad grammar.

    That episode made me mad because I absolutely positively do not care what New York women do and do not wear. Some of the outfits seen on that show were to my eye truly hideous. Secondly, if I wear a scrunchie out in public, it does not make me an uneducated "hick."
