Anthropology, by Dan Rhodes"Lipstick"The police caught my girlfriend stealing money from a blind beggar. She kept silent, but they tortured her until she admitted that she need it for lipstick. 'You have a job, ' they barked, 'You can afford lipstick.''I can afford cheap lipstick, but it's horrible. It's soapy, and it never lasts.'Fortunately, one of her interrogators was a woman. 'She's right. A girl needs to feel confident about her cosmetics.' They gave her a caution. As they released her the female officer, overcome with pity, slipped something into my girlfriend's pocket. A stick of Lancome. Volcanique. It suits her very well.Gosh, I loved this satire shit!
If I ever write a book, the style of it would definitely be similar to this guy's. Oh, and I can imagine it being made into an indie movie! A movie of a hundred short stories like this, starring John Cusack and Kirsten Dunst. They are good with weird stuff like this.
And wth! I don't like Lancome! How can he glamourize it so much. Helllllllo?! M.AC.?
