Acacia…Really?
It’s not very often that a piece of junk mail can truly make me lastingly angry. But congratulations to Acacia for making your mark. I received this unsolicited catalog and flipped through what seemed to be just another slightly upscale home accessories catalog. I was amused to find it also had a lot of yoga products and wondered how I might possibly have ended up on their mailing list. And then the amusement came to a screeching halt at the first in a barrage of clothing products. Here’s a prime example:
Live Happy and Don’t Be Mean Shirts
Be nice. Be content. Maybe life really is this simple. 100% cotton tees flatter a woman’s curves. Sizes S(4–6), M(6–8), L(8–10), XL(10–12), XXL(12–14). Machine wash. USA.
Ummmmm….
