A Trick I Learned from a Movie Prostitute

You know that part at the beginning of Pretty Woman where Julia Robert's character is fixing herself up--applying her face and donning some semblance of clothing--before she goes out to work her corner? After she zips up her thigh-high synthetic leather boots, she applies a permanent black marker to the scuff marks to make herself look a little less cheap than she is.

I have a pair of cheap boots. They have some scuff marks. And I have a permanent black marker. Who says watching movies like Pretty Woman is a waste of time?

I'm glad you're able to justify watching Pretty Woman. I'm cool with just watching it for the entertainment value. No learning required.
