Needless to say, I very much resent this sneaky insertion of synthetic – “faux” – threads into otherwise “natural” cloth. If I wanted Lycra or spandex or Lycra/Spandex I’D BUY A FREAKIN’ UNITARD.
If God is watching us, as some believers suggest, as though we were a television show and God had a lot of free time, the deity would surely be bemused by how dumbed-down devotion has sometimes become in this so-called modern era. How might an omnipotent being with the long view of history respond to those who visit the traveling exhibit of a grilled-cheese sandwich, sold on eBay, that is said to bear the image of the Virgin Mary? It certainly argues against intelligent design, or at least intelligent design in humans.Anna Quindlen (1953- ) Newsweek (January 2, 2006)

It’s safe to say that no Lycra(tm) was added to this entry.
