Close those legs, I could drive a boat show in there

// March 31st, 2008 // parenting

Mmkay, I have said this before, but I am going to say it again. Please explain to your middle and high school daughters why they should not cross their legs when they are sitting on a stage. Unless they are in training to be paparazzi magnets, you are not doing them a service by ignoring this issue. It will not stifle their individuality or cause psychological damage to explain how height affects point of view.

Five points if you’ve seen the movie quoted in the post title. Ten points if you can come up with another movie quote about the same subject.

    Extremely visual example of “why” you don’t cross (and uncross) your legs on a platform, but not the source of the title quote.

    Don’t know the original… or another “movie” but there is a hysterical routine of simiar nature in the new Ron While comedy special, You can’t fix Stupid.
