Mrs. Parker and Those Girls Who Wear GlassesDorothy Parker was a New York wit & writer who penned these immortal lines back in 1924:
Men seldom make passes
at girls who wear glasses.
In honor of its 83-year anniversary, I offer some variations on that theme. To wit:
Men seldom leave traces
on girls who wear braces.
Men seldom want babies
from girls who have rabies.
Men seldom write lyrics
for girls in hysterics.
Men seldom stop winking
at girls who are drinking.
Men seldom sincerely
like girls who think clearly.
Men seldom wear clothing
that girls are not loathing.
Men seldom take breath mints
for girls who make death hints.
And in the spirit of the times, let us update Ms Parker's lines:
Girls seldom make passes
at men with fat *****
