At this very moment, Iâm browsing the âsexy costumesâ category of an online retailer, wondering what can out-weird the fact that they sell âsexyâ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle inspired get ups. Oh, right. This is tonightâs open thread. Sorry.
One school of thought contends that any character, any uniform, can be sexy-fied. Their evidence comes in the form of sexy Optimus Prime, Spongebob Squarepants and TMNT costumes. Even Brian (the dog) from Family Guy. What the hell, people.
Iâll argue that not all characters can be sexed up. Grimace, for example, Ronald McDonaldâs rotund milkshake-loving friend. Please, help me make my argument. Or simply catch up on these items and talk amongst yourselves.
