That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for May 05, 2022

You should have seen what she was doing after her third glass.

/// Look, The Girl with Champagne. Cheeks are flushed;

posture’s bad; hair has barely been brushed.

It seems clear that the lass

has had more than one glass,

and that, when she got dressed, she was rushed.

Is her glass half full or half empty? Is she half dressed or half naked? She is obviously half in the bag though.

She obviously had a very busy night.

Wedding toast? What wedding toast? Oh. OK, I see the glass now.

Look at this Cedric. When I hunch over, they look bigger. Now will you throw away those Dolly Parton pictures?

Sleeping with all of the groomsmen the night before the wedding is just bad form.

There she is with her cupcake hooters.

A comment yesterday by kwardecke, ‘’It started as phallic portraiture, however it was deemed inadequate and the painting was cropped’’, somehow applies to this painting also.

Aunt Edna after having one too many at the family cookout.

After a rough day, Alice just wanted to take off her shoes and bra and have a glass of wine – so, of course, her boyfriend snaps her photo and posts it! (It got a lot of likes).

Poor Alice is looking unkempt./

A condition she’d never have dreamt/

But she can’t even think../

“What the hell’s in this drink?”/

Now’s the time for sly Hans’s attempt…

Vodka…lime…and that tasty Benadryl tang.

I sh not ash drink ash you drunk I yam

(Sigh) Just another “breast of…” episode.

ALICE: So a daily routine of pushups, bench presses and chest flies? Maybe I’ll just buy a bra…

“Yes they’re real and they’re meh.”

She certainly has an awkward grip on that glass. An image that raises many questions.

The inspiration for one of Ogden Nash’s most famous verse???

“Here’s a preview of tonight’s honeymoon!”

Reminds me of the one wedding I was at where the bride had a few too many after not eating all day, stood up at the reception while standing on her dress hem, promptly pulling her strapless top down (called a bodice, I think). Took her awhile to figure out just what had happened. Yep, good times.

SOMEONE needed to outdo Cara Delevingne at the Met Gala!

No, sweetheart, you’re supposed to get him drunk, so he doesn’t notice that you stuffed your bra with tube socks.

Well, a brief attempt to get some history on this work netted only: 1) umpteen places offering to sell prints of it, and 2) that the artist’s works tended to feature 1/2 nude females. In this one, I see NOT some rich woman posing for her portrait, but what may instead be some poor girl posing because she needed money – or a taste of champagne.

One tequila, two tequila, three tequila floor…

LIssa invents the slippery nipple.

Halfway through the reception, John realized his best man was right, everyone had already seen them…and still are.

I’m pretty sure that you will agree/

That no Dolly Parton is she./

On an average day/

She’s no more than an “A”/

On a really good day she’s a “B”…

Other versions has strip coloration image.

 

Again, a slightly larger strip image is shown by (Ctrl- or right-) clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #1863 (January 15, 2018) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment, and using the dropdown menu. I have added a comment there (awaiting Mr. Melcher’s approval) pointing to the artist info I used to point to here. Frist work by this artist used here (2 times, including this repeat). The January 15, 2018, strip has its first use. The perhaps archived artist info URLs in my comment there are pointed to by here links in my blog comment.

Sometimes the girls just need to breeeeath.

I’ll drink to that!

Marie always wanted to get married, so she picked the husband and now while intoxicated she knew she picked the wrong woman.

OfCourse she was no prize either, except for her great wealth.

Françoise, the flatulent floozy/

Passed a flatula that left her woozy/

So she opened her blouse/

To air out the house/

Whilst she sought brief relief with some “boozy”..///

Now a “blue nose” might look with disdain/

On her means of relieving her pain/

But the weather is lousy/

And she’s just looking frowzy/

Whilst she waits for the damn thing to wane..///

So after she’s cleared the air/

She will carefully neaten her hair/

And she’ll then pack away/

For the rest of the day/

Those objects that garnered your stare.

Do those things hurt?

The writers of limericks here

hold paintings like this very dear

for they’re quick to rhyme blouse

with something like souse

when the cause and effect are so clear.

I promise that when I do this again, I will not have my safe word be “NEXT”!

Those rosy cheeks, very sexy.
