    I bought a bamboo fabric bedsheet once. Washed it, and it never fit my bed again. So, I think the controversy will die quickly because no one in their right mind would keep buying that crap. #fashion

    Ah, Rayon, the miracle fabric which wonderfully combines all the disadvantages of silk with all the disadvantages of polyester. It's celluloseriffic! #fashion

    I used to work for Greenpeace, and people are horrified I'm not a big bamboo fabric advocate. It's basically the same as rayon because it IS rayon.

    Now, that said, the softest shirt I ever owned was a rayon Gap Hawaiian shirt. It was also the loudest. #fashion

    @raincoaster: I don't get the rayon hate. It's soft, breathable, usually washable, takes dyes beautifully so you can get some lovely vivid shades, flows and drapes well.
    And bamboo is such a renewable source. I'm not familiar with that kind of fabric, but I'd think that if it has all the other properties of rayon, the renewability would be a huge benefit. #fashion

    @mwynn13: It's the processing. If you think pulp mills are bad, think of the same thing on a larger scale, in a country with no environmental controls. That's what we're talking about. Deadly chemicals being spewed into the environment that will ultimately kill the workers even faster than the pandas. #fashion

    If I were you I'd give the Albino Rhino slippers to a homeless shelter. #fashion

    I imagine his Life Coach must spend at least an hour a day coaching him on his hair.

    Unfortunately, carrying a water bottle everywhere like some kind of tumorized keychain makes me look like too much of a dork to attract a mate anyways. (Or it's, you know, one of like 20 dorky things that contribute to this). #erections

    Right. Like the world needs THAT GUY to have priapism. The stuff of your dreams, right girls?

    And by dreams I mean the kind of nightmares that make you jump up and turn on all the lights and check behind shower curtains. #erections

    Maybe their robust erections are what allowed them to get rich enough to afford fancy schmancy water bottles in the first place. #erections
