Note to the Buyers

I want to punch somebody.
No, actually I want to grab someone by the neck and bitch slap until they weep and beg for mercy.
They'll get no mercy from me.
I'm talking about who ever is in charge of buying the swimsuit selection at Target.
What is wrong with you people?
Josephine is eleven years old. She's a little over five feet tall and that makes her too tall to fit into any of the swimsuits in the girls department. So we went and looked at juniors.
It turns out Target no longer has a 'juniors' department. What they have now is a 'skanks' department. There are no tank suits. Josie hates two piece suits. She's a modest kid who doesn't like to worry about whether or not her suit is going to stay in place as she frolics about in the water. She likes to dive, do somersaults and have fun like any other little kid. She doesn't want a bikini with tiny little straps, no coverage, brass rings holding tiny scraps of fabric together or padding in the bra. She's eleven. Every dang suit in the department looked like it was designed with Paris Hilton in mind. The colors were ugly,(black, brown and rust) the suits were tiny and apparently no matter how well endowed a gal is, everyone needs padding.
I guess Target is only interested in selling swimsuits to certain types of women; tiny children, skeezy bimbos and fat old women. The fat old women are offered a choice of black or brown spandex burkas.
I hate that place more and more all the time.
