My $35 100% polyester communion suit that I got from the Sears catalog in 1978. You can smell the ugliness on it. Zoom in on it. Not only is is baby blue, but it has pinstripes. flic.kr/p/2jWbmEUThis is the ugly suit in action, the day of my confirmation. I was 8 years old. I only looked forward to it for the cake. Yikes. What a gross little butter boy. flic.kr/p/2jWbmW5I call this the "Jm J Bullock fan club president picture". My family knows I hate it & they never let me forget it. If I could go back in time, I'd kick my own ass. flic.kr/p/2jWfMMPThis is my 25 year old nephew in the same suit. Shows how much of a porker I was. flic.kr/p/2jWfMRMI'm eventually going to burn this damn thing. flic.kr/p/2jWeZku |

Yep. It's a Catholic church thing. When you're old enough to get the wafers from the priest. |

Keep that thing. Burning it will unleash the horror and ghosts on us all. I'm so sorry we sold that to you (my last name is Sears).
In all seriousness I've never seen someone look so much like a young Andy Richter turn out to look nothing like Andy Richter.

Dear lord! These people are so much better looking than my family! Honestly- we were a bunch of polyester-clad cave toads. |

As a recovering Catholic, I'll never stop being perpetually unnerved by how much fanfare goes into some of those early grade holy sacraments up through confirmation.

Grumpyoldman I can cut that suit with my heavy duty shop scissors. Those special scissors can cut through any tough materiel and not dull the blades

I think sweat made it stronger. I bet it still smells like a pudgy fat butter ball. And there's probably Fudge Stripe cookies in one of the pockets. |
