Grand opening showed a line that stretched from Cheesecake Factory to Red Robin, with a mixture of girls and old ladies. The girls clustered and giggled as they watched the old ladies laugh at the girls. Apparently they had worn that stuff in 1969, and they looked better in them, way hot. I know I did: hot!
The doors opened and the females moved in quickly and then they screeched to a stop.
Where had the store gone? Where were the skater shorts? Crystal Doll? City Studio? Swimsuits that exist in the strands of fabric only? Jewelry was obscene and expensive.
Forever 91? The open door provided shopping carts and scooters ready for use, to be used by the 91 group. Old ladies races to the carts, shrieking and laughing. The lady walkers were the best, quicker.
WELL, the carnage did not go well. Old lady clothes someway appealed to the skinny giggles 16 year old girls. Why, it is not known.
So there you have it. The Old may be old, but oh my, do not get in their way. The youngsters lost interest, decided to go to local arcades.
I told my gr-daughter (8 yr. old) about turning store to a Forever 91 really upset her. We went to Starbucks, all was well with the world.
Hahahahahaha!
ReplyDeleteI'd like one for CostCo trips.
DeleteThat would be funny to see!
ReplyDeleteI bet it would be.
DeleteI always thought what was old was new again!
ReplyDeleteIt works out that way.
DeleteThis has to be a classic. I know many folks who said, "This is FOREVER," but it was not. Imma tell you that I thought the 'Duck's tail' was forever.... Oh well Now I have NO tail!!!
ReplyDeleteOne thing is the truth, this is forever a fact: Wash the car if just like a rain dance, I just prov3ed it again!!!!FOREVER a fact.
Sherry & jack
You are a hoot.
DeletePS I also just proved I forever need a proofer. Wash the car 'IS' also I PROVED it again. Oh well. I still have no tail.....
ReplyDeleteAs in "duck tail" hair cut? I thot it was cool, but then I was pretty young.
DeleteUs old women need clothes too...
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely.
DeleteWhat's Forever 21? :)
ReplyDeleteIt is what we are not: young
DeleteYouth is wasted on the young. I would love to find a Forever 91 store. That would be way fun.
ReplyDeleteYes! That would have better fabric.
DeleteClever and funny, thank you!
ReplyDeleteThat image appeared in my brain recently. We had gone to F.21 and bought clothes for my gr-daughter. It was fun.
Deleteit's the usual way of things. New and improved doesn't always mean better.
ReplyDeleteI have spent a lot of time in Forever 21 with my girls. Oh my.
DeleteI've never heard of either of these stores, but I laughed at the image of the elderly racing those walkers.
ReplyDeleteI made up Forever 91 because my gr-daughter was horrified at the idea. Forever 21 is still hanging around, we wandered around.
DeleteThat idea of racing walkers just popped up.
