  Worst. Uniforms. Ever. (and a couple I actually like)

  So I found this website, uniformfreak.com, which I guess is run by some Dutch guy who likes to collect stewardess uniforms from all different airlines. Anyway, I was looking through them all, and holy s**t are some of them horrible; they'll make youpuke or make your eyes bleed. Or both. The first three are from airlines that (I think)are out of business/bought out; probably because people don't enjoy getting sick on airplanes and it would be inevitable flying with these carriers. So, without further ado, here are my votes for ugliest uniforms:

  Braniff International (late '60s)--I'm all for insane patterns. If it's just, like, a shirt. Not a hat, shirt, skirt, leggings, etc. in one go. I actually like thesetwofrom the '70s, but then the drugs wore off and we got this.

  Allegheny Airlines ('60s/'70s)--Recycling gone wrong!

  Hughes Airwest ('70's)--I'd prefer a "bright and sunny" personality over "bright as the frickin' sun" uniforms.

  Bmi baby ('00s)--I bet they're comfy, but kinda sloppy. No effort at all.

  Air Tanzania--I'm torn; I find the shirts to be horrid, but the scarves have giraffes on them, which is pretty damn sweet.

  Kenya Airways--I think the shirts are designed to induce vomiting.

  PSA (1984+)--Like the bright colours, but they clash with each other.

  Uniforms I like:

  PSA (pre-1984)--I think the colours go very well together.

  Song--Casual AND stylish.

  PIA, Royal Brunei, and most other airlines from Muslim countries--It's a comfortable kind of outfit and I like the colours and prints.

  Sahara Airlines--Beautiful sari...

  Also, in my opinion: ugliest airliners--Ilyushin Il-76, Antonov An-124and An-225, and Tupolev Tu-144and similar Concorde(sorry for any disrespect, former Soviet Union, but you guys built some damn ugly planes); favourites--Boeing 747, Airbus A330, and Lockheed Constellation. And I have a feeling that the super-high capacity Airbus A380will seem awesome, until the first one crashes fully loaded. Sorry for the length here, but I really got into it.

  Be afraid. Be very afraid.

  In the eyes of the law I am now an adult. I will be voting in your elections. I will be gambling in your casinos. I will be (legally) visiting your naughty websites. I will be all up in your business and there's nothing you can do about it. Yeah. Take that society.

  I can't help but think that this isn't right. I feel kinda like Leopold and Loeb, y'know? High IQ, legally an adult, but extremely immature and lacking common sense? Yeah, I feel like I fit into that catagory. Seemed kinda like normal kids and then BOOM--they killed someone. I think it's stupid, 'cause I can do all these things now that, if you met me, you'd rightly feel that I don't have the maturity for it.

  So yeah. This feels so wierd... To bad there's no chance that Makoto Nagano will jump out of my cake...

  Totally lame...

  I seriously need to get a life. I was wicked bored last night and (I don't know exactly why) I ended up with a couple of scrawled pages--of SASUKE fanfiction. Yaoi fanfiction. Nothing too intense, but really what the hell? The worst part is, I woke up,thought it was decent and started writing another! Theseare my fantasies; should I be afraid?
