Woman Sues Victoria’s Secret Over Thong Injury.
Damn thing nearly took her eye out:
A Los Angeles woman is suing lingerie-maker Victoria’s Secret, claiming she was injured by one of the company’s defective thongs.
Macrida Patterson, 52, says she was attempting to try on the thong when a decorative metallic piece flew off the garment and struck her in the eye.
Ouch. I’m thinking granny panties for her from now on.
The garment in question is called the “low-rise v-string” from the Victoria’s Secret Sexy Little Thing line.
Patterson said the defective underwear caused her permanent corneal damage, and that she had to miss several days of work to get it treated.
*There’s a very obvious pun to be made, here. The first one to make it will receive a hat from Dave in Texas.
Via: Crime Scene KC
Hat tip: Greta from Kiss My Gumbo (She linked to an AP story in a Cotillion email thread, (which naturally, I had no desire to use), so I went to my trusty Crime Scene KC, and found another source for the story.
CORRECTION: Actually it was Blue Star Chronicles that linked to the story.

Macrida Patterson, 52….caused her permanent corneal damage…
Maybe I should sue Ms Patterson for permanent mental anguish because I tried to imagine her skanky fat ass wearing that nice piece of lingerie.
Yep, I am going to need help.
She had a spring in her eye and a thong in her heart.
Bzzzzzt! Wrong.
“All. My. Friends. Love the low riser.”
re. Favorite Headline Of The Day
Worn correctly it would not cause a headline.
Hmmm.
Nair on a V-String?
Do Not Want!
I never got the whole thong craze. Not comfortable.
what? you’re grading puns? put up or shut up.
warning label in thong “Danger: Do Not Over Inflate”
Trust me. And I look bad in them as well.

What? Do you go commando?

I bet the VS lawyers can get Patterson to crack on the witness stand.
No one’s got it yet. *Rolls eyes*

Towels not thongs.
New VS marketing slogan:Hey won’t you buy another somebody done somebody wrong thong
At 52 years old, I think the low-rise v-string is appropriate. It’s sure to show off that wonderful mons cleavage. But unless she shaves, it’ll look like Danny Devito in a tank top.

I was on the phone when I read this. Bastard.
She had dumps like a truck truck truck
Thighs like what what what
Baby move your butt butt butt
Uh
I think to sing it again
She had dumps like a truck trubleeaaaagghhhrrrrrrghhhhh!!
Dumps?
Patterson said the defective underwear caused her permanent corneal damage, and that she had to miss several days of work to get it treated.
I would like to hear the response her HR Dept rep gave her when she told this story (along the lines of “Sure it did, and last year I missed 3 days of work because I was abducted by aliens and anal probed too!”)
And will her HMO buy this BS too?
She ignored the warning label: Do not inflate beyond 300 pounds per square inch.
You’re not supposed to wear it on your head!
She’s acting like a pussy.
In all fairness, I know there are a lot of women over 50 for whom wearing a thong would be a very good thing. Well, good for those of us who like to look at nice tooshies displaying thongs.
Dave, is a low-rise v-string appropriate lawn mowing attire?

Now I am going to sue you, Compi, for Mental Anguish for forcing a disgusting visual of Dave in low-rise v-string mowing his lawn!
Mine’s more of a, dunno what ya call it, but there’s more fabric in the side panels.
Plus it’s emerald green (the yard work one). I only wear the leopard print when I want to feel pretty.

Rose goes in the front, big guy.
I like the thong simply because when I’m wearing pants, regular underwear shows a line and cuts my bootie in half. It’s very unflattering. I figure I”d rather have a little piece of underwear between my crack than the whole granny panty that seems to eventually work it’s way up there anyways.Of is it just my rear that happens to? Am I the only one that has to constantly pick out wedgies??? Am I?This is so unfair.
disclaimer pantyliner bootie link is not my bootie. http://www.fotosearch.com/bthumb/CRT/CRT318/15369-56CP.jpg

Can you link to a picture of your booty in a thong so we have a comparison?
My bootie photos usually have a child’s body conveniently in the way.
“Show me that Thong-Th-Thong-Thong-Tho…OW MY EYE!”
Talk about yer Flying V!
*Sigh*
Still no one’s guessed the obvious, bad pun.

Okay, fine. You were supposed to say: “This story really *cracks* me up!”
You were just toying with me, I know it. That was too easy.
Hello?
I don’t think you are even trying.
Okay, I missed that. You can give yourself a hat.
