Wow -
So I started to write a manifesto in response to the recent Miss Teen USA debacle. But where to go with it? The state of the public school system? Bimbo stereotypes proven (again)? The nauseating superficiality of pageantry? Any which way, it's too easy.
I laughed so hard I cried after watching this again, and again, and again. Then I realized I was crying, because she's not lying... we need to do SOMETHING about the future, for our children. Jeez.
She is poised for sure; super confident non verbal signals, hands on hips, standing tall, etc. Which is why you go, "Wait? WTH? She LOOKS like she knows what she's saying....it sounds, uh rehearsed, but WHY won't my brain tell me what it means?"
If anyone makes sense of this, please send me the translation. It's like the last word in a crossword puzzle that I just can't get. I may lose sleep trying to figure this one out. Or not. We US Americans have short attention spans.
