My Favorite Sentence

Posted by on Sunday, July 26, 2009 · Leave a Comment 

I’m tres busy slaving away on my first cover story in forevs. However, I thought I should pause to admire my own literary brilliance. (Because I’m modest like that.) Truth be told, this might be the most fave sentence I’ve scribbled in ages:

“Unlike on the No Doubt tour, there are no Housewives Gone Wild here; instead, you’ve got a fine selection of neon-clad, pint-sized Hayley clones, dudes with the back of their neck’s pierced (ouch!), and zit-faced teenage couples who look like they’re one face-sucking session away from appearing on MTV’s 16 And Pregnant.”

It’ll make much more sense in context. Trust.
