That was absolutely a rhetorical question.

I am just looking through Facebook photos from a party my friend went to. The party was called "TRASH FUCK DUMPSTER FUN 2008!!!!" and the theme was homelessness. Everyone was supposed to dress up like an itinerant. The cost of entry was nothing but "panhandlers" would be walking around on-site and if you gave them a donation, they would give all the parties profits to a homeless shelter.

The pictures are of young-ish lads and lasses wearing lots of dirty looking make-up and nibbling on garbage bag covered parts of each other's anatomy.

Reasons this makes me feel old:

1/ If I wore a garbage bag and black eyeshadow I wouldn't look cheeky and sexy I would look genuinely homeless.

2/ When my friends and I were 22 and 23 we were *way* too naive and probably a little to proper to think up a party this demented but also cool in a "coldly giving to a cause while also mocking that cause through my fashion" kind of way. Then again when I was 22 fashion designers weren't using Abu Ghraib as inspiration either.
