It's not like we expect much from Thursgay Styles, but the newsworthlessness of today's article about the trouble with strapless bras must represent a new low. First, there's the flailing attempt to pretend that the article is in any way timely: "Just ask the legions of women who hook, wrap and suck themselves into such bras each New Year's Eve, then pray they do not drop like the crystal ball in Times Square." Uh, right. That's what we always wear to celebrate the last day of December, a strapless-bra-necessitating shoulder-baring gown! Goes well with our suntan and our open-toed sandals! (This is Rob, btw). But the article's real low point comes later on:

Yes, but do they hold up your milkbags?
