You're a Bingle

And consumerism has once again gone further than anyone would ever have expected.

Yes, you can now own Channel temporary tattoos for only $90!

Why the hell do you need branded fake tattoos? Actually, why do you need fake tattoos? And in such an (I think) ugly design? I can't find a proper picture, but it's in the Herald Sun today.

Seriously. If you're going to do that, just buy some jewelery.

It's been unashamedly trumpeted as cheap way for people who can't afford the expensive stuff to get into the brand.

The reason that their expensive stuff is expensive is because, generally speaking, it's good stuff. These tattoos and what-not are relying on the name made by those high-end products, in a sense relying on their quality and awesomeness, to sell these sub-standard stickers for a ridiculous price.

I'm not really that against people paying more for brands, because generally branded stuff is better quality and better designed, no matter what people say about how it's "all the same." In most cases, it's not. But with these tattoos, how good can they possibly be? They're temporary tattoos.

Also, Lara Bingle annoys me to no end. I don't exactly know why. But it may have something to do with her riding her 15 minutes of fame for far too long. And how everybody seems to think she's hot, when really, she is very much not, in my opinion.
