Best Breast Forward

Since I'm deliriously and deliciously busy in Washington, D.C. at the moment, and because I know that each and every one of you will miss your regular dose of humor from, I've asked my dear friend and fellow humorist to write a little something for you.

So... without further ado, let me introduce The Gonzo Mama's first guest blogger, Rose Norton. I like to think I discovered Rosie back when she was in fifth grade and I recruited her to write for my high school lit mag. These days, she can be found hilariously blogging over at OpenSalon. Rosie's "Best Breast Forward" made me laugh out loud. I hope it makes you pee your pants!

It is a well-known fact the shape of your breasts generally reflects the kind of day you are having. Now, it's a lot easier to read a gal with a huge rack than a chick with raisins for tits; but there are a vast assortment of breast moods, and we shall look at a few today. Scenarios, that is.

Interview day, tits are at full attention, only slightly lower than the eyes, which helps to distract the interviewer from noticing the sweat moustache that just seeped out of your makeup after the questions about your previous employers.

Let's play "Choose your own Adventure: the Secret of the Coded Chest." You wait nervously by the phone, your chesticles are still acute, yet nervous. A call comes in. It's the Human Resources Dept. If you get the job, read the next paragraph, if not, skip down to the one after that.

You nailed the interview and they want you to start training on Monday. You are so excited that your breasts are bouncing around, giggling with glee on their Victoria Secret water trampoline. You put on a sexy shirt and waltz down to the nearest ‘tini bar to join your girlfriends and their 'just got off work, but happy to be able to afford getting hammered' breasts. "Life is good, and my boobs were spectacular!"

The interviewer calls. He says he's sorry but they hired someone else, but you were definitely second and if you would be interested, could he take you out for dinner a drink? (Lord knows, you'll need it, as it might be the last non-PB&J meal for a while.) Before the end of your conversation, you have already freed your downtrodden ta-tas, allowing them to wilt with emotion. You hang up the phone. "Life sucks. At least my boobs were spectacular."

After nursing for a little over four years of my life, I find my breasts much more histrionic than the next gal’s. If I want them high, then my cheekbones are going to have competition. If I'm feeling low, I just might trip. If I'm feeling strong, they can melt together to form one mighty giant mass of chest that is no stranger to punching me in the face during jumping jacks - the sports bra uni-boob.

The ladies with less endowment seem a bit more understated to me. The average B-cup comes along with a type-B personality. Don't get me wrong - there are shades of grey here; but from observations, the average librarian and Sunday school teacher often possesses the breasts to go along with the temperament. They seem a lot more emotionally stable.

However, there is a distinct cup size personality similarity. Yep, I'm talking about A-cup-personality traits. These women are usually have a perky little rack that looks like they have had one too many shots of espresso. That woman involves people with her little daily tragedies, with angry, irritated mosquito bites that can't help but point at you. This kind of personality/cup size paradigm takes claim to the term, "titterpated".

Now, we can't forget the plastic ones. But what would you expect? These are just fine all of the time. A severe lack of emotion. But if your eyes can manage to venture north, the majority of the time, their spray-on faces reflect the mood: Just fine. In the magazine section of the Porn Super Store, you can look at some of these breasts and see the thought processes that their owner, or maybe just lessee, have. A painfully blonde woman standing in nothing but a skirt and a blank gaze has these odd, perfectly circular bowling balls on her chest. Then you look at their nipples, on the emotionless masses. One is staring blankly at you while the other drifts off looking at the floor. The lazy eye of nipples.

I can't help but wish that everything was just fine, minus the lazy boob. I'd just rather experience the slings and arrows (or rather, poking underwires) of life and then get it off my chest an move on. I can't fake perky in my best breast upward bra, no matter how hard I try. They'd only assume the fetal position, curling up in the bottom of the bra, waiting for the miserable day to be over. You have to respect your state of mind and your emotional well-being as well as the state of your mammaries. May you forever think a little differently when someone utter the phrase, "tits up."


  1. I prefer my B cup boobs over the big bowling balls. I can run, jump, bounce, and sleep on my stomach. Life is good.

  2. I'm a 34D, which is fab for low-cut gowns and skinny t-shirts.

    I imagine they're not so great for exercise, so I avoid it at all costs... unless you count belly dancing, where I have found them to be more of an asset than a hinderance. :)

  3. Ok, so maybe I am a little jealous. Blah! I buy those push-up, padded Victoria's Secret bras.
