The World Is Burning Down Around Us, But Hey, At Least I Got A Good Deal On This Fancy Shirt!
I’m like 85% sure it’s real silk
The world is ending. No, not in some apocalyptic way with asteroids crashing into us or the sun burning out or whatever. It’s just ending in that slow, drawn-out, agonizing way that makes you want to crawl under a rock and hide forever. The political climate is a dumpster fire. The economy is hanging by a thread. Social unrest is bubbling over into full-blown chaos. And through it all, I’m just sitting here, admiring my new shirt.
It’s a nice shirt, you know? Silky soft fabric that feels like butter against your skin. A flattering cut that hugs the right places and hides the wrong ones. And best of all, it was on clearance for half off! I mean, in these trying times, what more could a girl ask for?
Sure, maybe it’s selfish to be so focused on my own personal fashion choices when the world is crumbling around us. But hey, if we can’t find joy in the little things during an existential crisis, then what’s the point of living at all? And this shirt? This shirt is pure joy wrapped up in a cute bow. It makes me feel good about myself when everything else seems to be falling apart.
So while you’re all out there protesting and rioting and screaming into the void, I’ll be right here, looking fabulous in my new clearance rack treasure. Because let’s face it, if we’re going down, we might as well look good doing it. And this shirt? This shirt is my armor against the apocalypse.
Besides, even if the world does end tomorrow, at least I won’t have to worry about paying off that credit card bill! Talk about a silver lining! So bring on the doom and gloom, baby. I’ve got my trusty silk shirt, and nothing else matters.
In the grand scheme of things, maybe this whole “Trump vs Kamala” business is just an elaborate plot by big fashion to get us all to buy more clothes. Think about it – first they scare us with all the bad news, then they lure us in with a sale at our favorite store. And before we know it, we’re drowning in cute tops and comfy leggings while the world burns around us.
Well played, fashion industry. Well played indeed. But hey, if you’re going to make me your puppet, might as well let me rock a good deal! My new shirt says so. And I’ll wear it with pride right into the abyss.
