The Tide Is Fug


In yet another case of mistaken fugdentity…

When I first saw a small version of this photo, the order of my reactions was this:

1) “Wow, I have NEVER seen Shirley MacLaine in a hoodie before.”

2) “…Or, wait, did Courtney Love just get a Raggedy Ann haircut?”

3) “Unless that’s Ben Stiller’s mother…”

4) “No, it’s… Damn. I was hoping it wasn’t, but it is. WHY is Debbie Harry DOING THIS to herself?”

And that’s when I lapsed into a sad, introspective silence. I miss the Debbie Harry who didn’t look like she just wandered out of the gym and finds it hilarious that she needs to ask for directions back to her house. I mean, she rapped! She wanted us to call her on the line any anytime! She wasn’t the kind of girl who’d give up just like that — oh noooo-ooooo! It’s vexing.
