The problem is whether the Summer will go along with the lie. If she can’t be depended on, you can’t take TM’s prescribed course of action.
The solution is simple. Both the Summer and the Ex-Sec have to die. It's only a question of whether or not Too Wong Foo really has the balls to be partner material.

Ahhh. You have a point there, son.

So, maybe it's more like the top of one of those bathing suits that's a two-piece, but that covers the stomach. Think of a very tiny, sleeveless dress, that doesn't quite reach the belly button. That's what Jane looks like. She also has pretty flowers.

ETA: Tank Top!! That's what it's like. Except more sheer.

Yes.

Anyone ever have a bitch session going with another GA about how fucked your firm is, then have an interview candidate come in, and you both proceed to explain how your firm is the best place to be, and so much better than the other big firm down the street, where the candidate will be at tomorrow.

When I was big law I didn't really compromise myself too much for the partners, but I always hated myself for not telling candidates- "this place is fucked, that place is fucked cut your best deal, and buy some nose plugs."

I'm not wearing a jacket. Sweater - relatively thick knit, and loose-fitting. I can't lose it, or I'd be sitting here in only my undergarment, and that would be chilly. Last week, I wore a thinner-knit sweater, and discovered that I was sporting the headlight look (thanks to the cold). I was mortified, and spent the rest of the day in my office, or with my arms folded, hoping nobody noticed.

I just accidentally stumbled upon the braless thing. Long story, but the punchline is I was somewhere where the only clean clothes I had were white shirts, but I had only dark-colored bras, so I just went without. I may never go back.

I am a little concerned about the sag factor, however. Meh.
While they're not sagging, make good use of them. Use the beams as a weapon, offensively. Don't hide them.

Re the headlights, fuck it. Its part of the body, and a damn good part at that. Go with it. I see women crossing their arms while they walk past to hide the headlights and think to myself, “That’s an uncomfortable way to walk, and its basically just advertising that you have headlights on.” Its much better to just go with it. Its like shaving your head when you’re going bald. Just accept what you’ve got going and if people want to look, whatever. I say why hide a nice asset?

The only baaad headlights are those the doughy motherfucker from IT is beaming through his Oracle-logoed golf shirt. That. Is. Nauseating. Or a kinda fat guy who has gynomastia. This one cat I buy magazines from has disturbingly developed breasts, but isn’t really all that fat. I can’t even look at the guy.

Truly. There's a guy upstairs who has that, um... problem, and he doesn't even bother to wear a t-shirt (or even a Jane!) under his shirt. It's pretty grisly.

Never gonna happen with me, but I appreciate the sentiment, Sebby. It's a nice look if you can pull it off.

All this talk of T-bras and headlights is making me sad. I bought a shirt I just adore and my TITS are not large enough to fill it no matter how much I lift/support/pad. I just keep looking at it longingly wanting to wear it. ANyone want an adorable shirt from Anthropologie that is designed for those who can get the barmaid type cleavage going?

There is nothing scummier than a law school faculty. Drunks, career failures, lazy unambitious zeroes.

Why would you buy such a shirt? Everyone knows you have no TITS! Are you still in puberty and hopeful that you will grow some? Oh - I'll take the shirt.

An old dean of GW's law school has the building named after him- Burns maybe. Anyway in the lobby is a 6 foot SELF portrait in oil. Unless he lied and someone else actually did it, Dean Burns had some pretty good art skills going. So they're not all completely useless.

i bought it without trying it on and assured myself that with the right "foundation wear" I could pull it off. I've been saying that to myself for two months but now I'm finally coming to terms with it. It was a nice $150 lesson learned.

You bought a $150 top without trying it on, took it home, tried it on, found that it didn't fit, tried alternate undergarments, found that it still didn't fit and ultimately decided to give it away?

Next time just send me the money in a plain brown envelope.

I gave to my high school and my college (to which I'd bequeath most of my estate if I were to become fabulously wealthy).

But I'd sooner eat horseshit than give anything other than a malotov cocktail to my law school.

Camisoles have very thin straps - either like bra straps or spaghetti straps. They are still around, and, these days, worn as outerwear a lot.

This is what I hated when I was single. False advertising. Work with what you got or get implants, but please, bag those stuffed bras. Its not attractive and its annoying when you get her home and find out the TITS you expected disappeared.

Small tits are hot. Work them by wearing shit that looks good on them and leave the boob t-shorts to the busty chicks who can wear them.

My old lady wears these two pieces dresses that are camisole topped. Excellent beamage. I get a kick out of watching people watch her beams. She doesn’t care. Comes from a medical family - to her, they’re just nipples, and she has no intention of letting their erectness stop her from wearing something she digs.

I'm not opposed to pushing up and extreme support, but I stay away from the overly-padded variety. It's not really a boob shirt...in the big tit kinda way. I think it's more of a tasteful rack kind of shirt and I thought it was pretyt and didn't think about the need to have more TITs.

LLook at the bright side. They say smaller brreasts are more sensitive.

Of course, my experience was the opposite. I knew this chick who had huge boobs who could actually come just from playing with her boobs. That was kind of a kick.

Ok, I'm done talking about the shirt now. I just went and looked it up on their website and I guess I only paid $88 for it (plus tax) so it was a cheaper lesson and I'm over it.

Must you use the phrase "old lady"? It's blechy.

I'm usually pretty unaware of what my nipples are doing in daily life unless I look. The last time I crossed my arms to hide anything was when I stopped to get gas and a snack after a noirish encounter to which I wore a thin stretchy t-shirt with no bra. I also threw on a heavy jacket; the arm crossing was probably overkill.

Breasts are fun.
